Never Again - A Lesson

Experience, my friend, is the best teacher. Time, equally so. My parents tell me that I don't need to make the same mistakes that they made, in order to learn. So, I make mistakes of my own, then regret making them and take lessons from each one of them. So, here goes.

  1. Don't let anyone treat you like their booty call. You're definitely not it. Unless you believe in that kind of a thing, then you might as well be one, I guess. There are far better things you can be, than a booty call for some jerk. Most importantly, don't be your ex's booty call. Period.

  2. Never give in to lust. It always screws things up. For you, to say the least. They say, lust is one of the deadly sins; today I understand why. It will destroy you mentally, steal your piece of mind and wreck you emotionally. It is not everybody's cup of tea. Don't say you weren't warned.

  3. Do not tolerate nuisance. Not from anyone. Make sure the line is never crossed. What's off limits, should remain so, come what may. Do not tolerate any kind of humiliation or insult. Pay back, always. It's never okay to be a submissive. Take shit from no one. Not even yourself.

  4. Maintain a level of self-respect and dignity, even if it comes to the worst. Nobody will respect you if you don't respect your own self. And learn to leave from the table, when respect is no longer being served.

  5. Do not believe everything people say. Believe everything they do. As much as I am a lover of words, they can and do deceive. Understand people's intentions from their actions.

  6. Leave the past where it should be - in the past. Make peace with it. Don't spend too much time thinking what was and what should have been. What happened 10 years ago or 10 minutes ago, it doesn't matter now. What matters now is now. Make that count.

  7. Be stubborn, be bold, be rigid. Don't give up before you get what you want. Don't let anything get in the way of you and your goals. Do not let anyone take your dreams away from you. Hold on tight, you're so much stronger than you think you are.

  8. Do not compromise. Do not settle for something that does not meet your standards. You deserve more than ordinary. Do not settle for a 2BHK flat when what you really want is a penthouse. Strive for it. It'll take time, but you'll get there eventually. Do not settle for mediocre, especially when it comes to sex and life - they need to be great!


  9. Say "Fuck off" more often and to those who have wronged you. They don't deserve to be a part of your life. Some people grow up to become mature adults, others grow up to become assholes. Fuck them and forget them. It's in your best interest to do so. And they probably don't care, so why should you?


  10. Last of all, never let anyone belittle you. You are magnificent, you are more than anyone could ever be. Invest in becoming great. Invest in spreading greatness. As for those who underestimate and despise you, they can bloody well fuck themselves. 


    Chin up, head high, smile, raise your middle finger and get on with life.

Better Single than Sorry

Walking down the aisles at Archie's gallery, gazing at various love objects such as Teddy Bears, Cupid idols, Love birds, Together forever frames, and other love-related shit; I finally ended up picking a Happy Anniversary greeting card for my parents. If this is not the torment of Valentine's day, then I don't know what is. No, the torment isn't buying an Anniversary card, it's the struggle to find general greetings amidst this store full of red hearts and love quotes that describes a world where love is measured by objects and not emotions.  If you choose 14th February to confess your feelings, that's not falling love, it's fooling in love. With due respect to Saint Valentine and Cupid, this day has become overhyped, overrated and over celebrated. How can you decide to pamper your loved one only on one day of the year and bestow all the love (pocket money) upon them?  Expensive gifts and flowers only provide the sellers with one week of good business and t...

Things We Do When We Hate Someone

We have all been mad at someone or the other for some reason or the other but does that put an end to our love for them? Do we stop feeling the same for them? The answer is relative to the reason for which you’re mad at them. IF it is something that can be fixed, then the answer is NO, but surely when the damage done is irreparable, let’s take YES as the answer. People change, feelings change. Nobody can guarantee same behaviour throughout the course of a relationship. This is one solid ground for relationships falling apart. They say, "The opposite of love isn't hate. It is indifference." I am a true believer of these words but then again, sometimes, the next level indifference is called hate, or so I like to think. It's like they cease to exist for me, hence their role in my life becomes zero.   If I were to define hatred, it would be "absence of love”. It is a long ride to go from being mad at someone to hate them but there’s no looking back when you de...

Bring back what once was mine

If love could bring you back, I'd love you eternally If smiles could bring you back, I'd laugh for you  If tears could bring you back, I'd cry a river If flowers could bring you back, I'd grow a garden  If a kiss could bring you back, I'd kiss your lips forever  If a hug could bring you back, I'd hold you the longest  If money could bring you back, I'd spend all on you  If she could bring you back, I'd beg her to  But only if my love could bring you back, I promise to love you eternally.
