The current centre of attraction of my life


So this one is going to be the first post of my blog and I thought a lot about what should it be about . after thinking for a while and having a tiny fight with my own mind I came to the conclusion that it should be about the current center of attraction of my life . Something that I have always been fond of but lately I've been obsessed with it. Well , without any further ado let me tell you that this post is going to be about plants. Yes , you are right the green things around us. All throughout this post you will find me boasting about them as if they are mine but in real sense they are everybody's best  friends.

Since school or maybe even at home as kids we have been taught how plants are selfless and how we should thank them. Also,  in my culture we have even been worshipping trees for centuries and decades. ( if you are from the west you are missing out on that part of value education). So, keeping my values and culture in mind I have always had immense respect for trees and I've always wanted to learn from them or maybe even be like them but as the saying goes it is always easier said than done. In all these years of me idolizing trees I've realized I can never be like them.


According to me , I don't think anybody hates plants and even if they do they cannot ignore them. They are everywhere.  In the jungle, on the pyre, on the Ground , in the sea , around your house if not inside it on your plate, in your medicines ,  and even in your imagination of what heaven looks like and nobody can deny this fact. Even though we know so much about the importance of plants in our lives and the lives around us. We still are a little ignorant towards them. They have somewhere just become the green background of our worlds when in reality they are the green screens which if used in the right manner can change the way  the movie of our lives would look like.


It's their abundance because of which they have been taken for granted which is sad and concerning and also the reason why none of us can be like plants. Trust me if any day I get to know that there is this one species of an organism that is a part of the ecosystem of which I am the cornerstone of trying to destroy my species that moment  would be the end of the era for that species. I would do everything in my power to destroy them but look at plants they don't do such things right ?. Even though they are capable of it. Again saying this when it comes to plants I am biased so if you are going to give me the example of all the people who died eating a plant in a jungle I'll call those people uninformed . Let me explain it to you with an example if  you enter a friend's house for the first time do you touch anything and everything without asking and do you eat everything around you , No right ? Then why go into a jungle and just eat whatever you see without asking anyone from that place. Also, if you eat sugar and you know it is white in color then do you eat every white powder that you see After that.  Just because a plant  is green and looks like something you've already eaten before you cannot eat a it  and then blame it for the consequences. I think it's just like being a citizen of a  place where you live. In order to live in that place you need to know certain information about how the place works along with the do's and don’ts of that place. The same way as we live on earth we should know that it is abundantly surrounded by plants and without them nothing here works and when we are around them we need to know what to do and what not. Or else we already know what consequences we create when become a majority in any place. In that context again plants even though in majority are being super kind to us and again look at us , we  are the most intelligent species out there yet we don't know how to co exist.


See, I've always loved plants. The green in them makes me forget the blue in me. As of now I've even started learning about them academically. Since, then I've learnt more about these green wonders and I love them even more. Living without plants would not be possible and this sentence right here is reality not just a figure of speech. I am not going to end this by saying plant more plants or save them. I would just like to say that try living a day without seeing a plant or a part of it around you I bet you won't be able to do that. Even after destroying so many of them still we cannot spend a day without them being around us. Imagine all of them being gone one day. How many seconds would humankind survive without them. In reality not even one second. Now tell me do you don't like plants and if you do would you still not like them ?. Honestly, as I finish writing this I fallen even more harder for plants . Plants are the best and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Somewhere in the middle........

Okay, so I have again ghosted this blog for a while, but you know, just got so caught up into everything else that it just became an “on the back of my mind” thought. It just wasn't coming to the front which reminds me of many other things which didn't come to the front either. Like I said, I was too occupied. But for this blog, a really kind person decided to remind me that, hey, you have forgotten about the blog, and that they're waiting for a new post. But now, as I am writing this, I reckon what were other things that I didn't do when I was too caught up with the things at the front. And also the fact that I never really cared what was important and what was not I just went on doing what came to the front. Now that I think of it, what if the thoughts and things waiting for me at the back of my mind were the ones I should have focused on? You know, I get it live in the moment, you just have one life but yeah, that matters, right? I just have one life, an...

I am a seasonal being

I am a seasonal being. Wait, I forgot to add human. So actually, I am a seasonal human being . What’s the difference, you ask? Well, a seasonal being changes every season, inside and outside. But a seasonal human being? Sometimes we change only on the outside. Sometimes, only on the inside. And sometimes both. The changes are constant. That’s just how life works. Seasonal beings understand that. Seasonal human beings… haven’t. But I think we will. The thing is change for us is still a shock. And the worst part?  We don’t have a defense ready. Apart from crying, of course. Which, again, is subjective. Because men "don’t cry" It makes them weak. And women are weak, so they cry. Or so we've been told. Some of us develop defenses, though they’re not always healthy taking it out on others, starving, bingeing, self-harm, even suicide. And some of us just exist while everything around us keeps changing. We tell ourselves we’re excited about change. We admire other se...

“Is It Love or Am I Just Gambling?”

                      “Is It Love or Am I Just Gambling?” “Last night, I woke up to a nagging feeling . the sense that I wasn’t worthy of anything. But then it dawned on me love wasn’t the problem. I’d given as much as I could, but I never received it back. Was I gambling, waiting for the roulette to stop on you loving me, hoping to win and receive love in return? Turns out I wasn’t gambling; I was hoping that this gamble would somehow pay off, and I’d win. I was ready to take the risk. Is it love? No, it’s not. The butterflies were there since you caught my eye, but the racing heartbeats and nervous eyes are still waiting to happen. So, I can say I’m ready for love. Again, I ask, Is this love or am I gambling? Well, I’m waiting, ready for love, so I can gamble and win. Will I win? What if I lose? Time will tell. Till then, stay tuned...
