In a trance

I feel tired as I walk towards the well to fetch some water. As I sit down on the stone bench to rest for a while, I see little girls running to school.

The rocky road

Image Source In life’s journey there is always both good and bad, We always wish for things better than the ones we’ve had. I walk through the rocky road, I thought it was too much of a load. There were times when I almost gave up, Thinking that it wasn’t my cup. Easy I wished the journey to be, The path ahead looked hard to […]

The reason I write

The reason I write

Image source Thoughts sweep through my mind, An outlet for those I seek to find. Memories both happy and sad, Are best felt when they are shared. I set up stories in a world of my own, With each character I create, I seem to have grown. And what better way can there be, Than to set the words free? I write because it puts […]

The gift

Turning a new page

The old cupboard made a squeaky noise as I opened it after a long time. I had to pack all of my things as I was now moving to a new city. I had this habit of collecting mementos of everything special that happened in my life and my love for collecting such things never stopped until recently. As I kept looking through my things, […]

Is it my fault?

Is it my fault?

Image source I was always told to be nice to people around and that I always did. A life of honesty I was asked to lead and I spoke the truth always.
