Look, Where?, There, But I don't see it.

How come no-one told me

All throughout history

The loneliest people

Were the ones who always spoke the truth

The ones who made a difference

By withstanding the indifference

I guess it's up to me now

Should I take that risk or just smile?

Misread-Kings of Convenience

I think at times, one should go with the flow. Like if something is happening certain way, I guess it was meant to be so why not just let it be? But then, if you let things be the way they are, the next generation is looking for a HORRIBLE future. If no one stands up against the wrong and let things go smoothly, let wrong be done without any hindrance then there is NO TOMORROW. It's like THE END. Like this verse by Faiz Ahmed Faiz says

"Jigar dareeda hun chak-e-jigar ki bat suno, umeed-e-sahar ki bat suno"

Translation: I’m torn inside; hark what my tormented entrails tell, hark to the hope of dawn

Our generation is THE perfect example of "Ignorance is a bliss". We have closed our eyes from seeing the truth. We believe that by turning our back to the reality, we will defeat it. We will triumph by giving up, which is a paradox itself. How can you even think of not trying and winning? How can you possibly even THINK about changing the world when you're not ready to budge yourself from your lazy ways? It's like saying "I'm guna loose the marathon tomorrow" when you haven't ran in 7 years. And all anyone could say to you is "wow". Our generation is like that, relying on what we are FED and refusing to actually RESEARCH. Tomorrow if some 'educated person' proves that 2+2=5 using fantasy scientific words, chances are we WILL believe him. And that is exactly the problem. Believeing anything blindly and refusing to open your eyes.

So my advice and request from the 'youth' is TO WAKE UP !!!

I Dream and I Achieve

I have been blogging a lot lately :/ It's true a person goes crazy near exams, well AP's in my case but this is going to be a very optimistic post.

So a few minutes ago, I was NONPLUSSED( a vocab word I quizzed over today :P) and I asked for some 'older' advice and SHABAM I got an answer. You know of all the things experience teaches us, one thing it lacks is the ability to 'trust' someone else's words. Cause experience teaches you to make your own mistakes, well sometimes you gotta listen and let someone else do part of the thinking for you. Cause maybe they know a perspective you never even thought of in your wildest dreams, but when they actually tell you about it, it's like "duh..that makes perfect sense". I think experience makes us extremely judgmental. We start judging people for tiniest things and I think that's why most relations fail. I mean even if you're best friends with them, you still have no right to judge them for their actions because you might have NO IDEA what they might be going through. That's why I believe we should put ourselves in their shoes before actually stereotyping them.

So till a couple of years back I used to believe in reality. I used to think that there is no truth beyond reality and the faster we snap out of fantasy world, the better for us. But these past 2 years made me realize how wrong I was. I mean I was missing out on a whole new world called dreams. I had visions of bringing a change and doing something big when I was asleep but did I really dream? Not exactly, in fact, the circumstances made be stop believing in myself and I started saying phrases like "pshtt...like that's ever guna happen, I can never do something big". I was wrong. Extremely wrong, in fact I can't believed I missed out on this for such a long time. But somethings happened that made me realize that even though I might not be as amazing at everything I do, I still can and will bring a change. I will make a difference, cause I know I can do that. I believe in myself not because I am conceited but because there are two people who worked hard for me. There are two people who KNEW I could do it and so they planned for it. There are two people who backed me up always, even when I KNEW I was hopeless, screw the world. There are two people who stood up for me, against all the odds and you know what? They deserve it. So yes I am guna put my best efforts forward and do it for them. They never got rewarded for their hard-work but I am guna give this little token to them. So yes, I am dreaming, and dreaming huge, I am working, and working hard and Yes InshAllah I will bring a change, and a huge change cause they deserve it.

Keep Dreaming and Keep Achieving and Keep Living

Cause without dreams, you're not exactly living. (:

I Dream of a World

I dream of a world without War

Peace, Happiness, Freedom and Rights

Where Red represents Life

Terrorism, a concept unknown

Where the only T word is Toys

I dream of a world without Murder

Danger, Dying, Tears and Loss

Where these words are extinct

Compassion, a concept virtually known

Where the only L word is Love

I dream of a world without Greed

Envy, Hatred, Anathema and Gloom

Where these feelings fail

Green, the color of Peace

Where the only F word is Frienship
