The End


The title of the post must be self explanatory. I started this blog as a vent. A vent for everything in my head. On a few days, I'd sit and write whatever was floating in my mind. It brought in a lot of serenity, a lot of closure to the multitude of happenings. On top of all that, I realised what most people actually feel. Initially, I thought I was alone and the thoughts creeping up in my head was a part of me and me alone. Once I started writing, I got to understand that there are people who feel the same. I don't necessarily know if the blog made you happy or sad. I don't know if it made me happy or sad. I wanted to write and this was my platform for the same. I've found my love for writing. I've found peace and solace in it. I will continue to do so but on a different platform. A new beginning. Soon. 
In my journey to understanding why I feel the way I feel, I realised that most of us are filled with a lot of disturbance. There's a lot of rage against the education system. Doing something you don't like for the sake of the society. We're still backward thinking in those regards. Something I've always wanted to say is that everyone has an artistic side. Maybe science and engineering are noble pursuits but we're born to appreciate and fall in love with art. To me, that is music and writing. I've followed up on the lives of writers, photographers and even stand-up comics. I'd call these careers a lot more underrated than it seems. There's a certain power in any form of communication. Especially creative means. There's no logic associated with it. You look at a good photograph and you stop. Everything around you pauses. You're stuck. You're brain is rewired to flush out a ton of memories. Tears escape the prison that you created and for a moment, you are you. Amidst all the chaos, you find order. A calm and serene feeling. A feeling of being lost. Why do we do what we do? I don't think I can ever answer that for myself.
The purpose of this blog was for me to understand and experience new thoughts. New endeavours. A lot of nostalgia filled me up when I sat to write a few of the posts. Among all that, I was able to find what I loved doing. I was able to connect dots that ceased to exist under the societal barrier. I was able to find a hazy picture of the person I wanted to be. When I look back at the first post, I can assure you that I don't feel too different deep down. I don't know where I'll be in the next year. Maybe a dropout. Maybe writing another blog. Maybe performing music. What I do know is what I won't be in the next one year. That is what the society wants me to be. It's easy to live a life more boring. For one to fill their lives with meaning and experiences is the true cost of life, time. That's what makes the pursuit worth chasing. This blog has played its role. Until now, I was scared to write about some topics online. Scared of letting others read what I felt. I've definitely evolved as a writer. Whether I'm a good one is always up for grabs. All I know is that I've a long way to go and the funniest part is I don't know where I'm headed. I guess that's the best part. Until next time!

fsociety

According to Mr. Robot, fsociety is a hacker group led by Elliot. I'd like to take it for the literal meaning, fuck society. Are my dreams that powerless against the societal pressure? Do they not qualify as ambitions? I'm just another engineering student. Having fought a million sperms to come here, I have lost myself among millions others. Why wasn't I the sperm that lost the race? Why'd I have to win, only to be taught to live a life as per societal norms? It pains me. The things I loved to do depress me now. fsociety.  Hypocrites, everywhere. I'd save that for another day. Is it too unholy to pursue my passion? Is it a crime to not want to be an engineer? To me, it is just a portal to truly finding myself. Clearly, I'm not suffering. There are people going through far worse. I have not the right to complain. Do I at least have the right to tread the path I want to? Am I truly that powerless? fsociety. Finding solace in my past fills my heart with a sense o...

Acceptance

I started this blog as a means of discovering more about myself, and I haven't been truer. What started of as random ramblings during sleepless nights has now grown to be my voice. I believe everyone has their own voice, and they all express it in different forms. My sister draws, I write and I know a few of my friends who create music. The deeper you look at all the works, the more you'll understand about their voice, their stronghold view on this Earth.  So many days have gone by when I've sat down only to realize the pace at which the current generation is moving forward. Credit it to the ease at which information is available but the reality is darker than it seems. That's when I came across this quote Don't compare your beginning to someone else's middle.  This might have been the picture perfect excuse for procrastination, and mind you it has, but a lot has changed ever since. Self acceptance is something I find lacking in most people. It isn...

Mad World?

The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had.  Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow, no tomorrow, no tomorrow.   L ines from one of my favorite songs, Mad World. I don't know if my interpretation is right, but to me this song is about a monotonous life. One bad day and everything hits you hard, you realize that the life you've lived has nothing to do with the dreams you had as a kid. You've painted your life grey, not 50 shades, just one. That's how monotonous you've become. This isn't about you, it's about me. Selfish? Maybe. My life has been on autopilot, wake up, curse studies, binge, eat, sleep. What happened to all that enthusiasm in learning something new? What happened to that awe when I learnt something new in science? I've been fooled into believing that this is the life I want. I blame no one but me. My foolishness. My naivety. You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost. Another line from one of my favorites, Bad Day. Is...
