“So now, all alone or not, you gotta walk ahead. Thing to remember is if we're all alone, then we're all together in that too.”
— Patricia, P.S I Love You
One of my most favorite lines ever written.
Yeah, the melodramatic loneliness. Obviously, I have people around me yet this absurd feeling is eating me up. Anyways, if I speak about this to someone, they will say I'm overthinking. And I understand their view. What we are missing in this pandemic is our solitary phase of life. We are surrounded by people 24*7. Honestly, I have no idea, why I have this feeling? What I'm missing? Where is it coming from? Most importantly, what I want out of it? How to deal with it?
It's hard to explain. And it's harder to ask for help. But I have to. Probably someday I'll talk about it. To someone who can listen and does not interrupt or interpret it according to them. Who rather than telling me what should I think, tells me, yeah they know the feeling. Someone whom I can talk without judgments and arguments and prolonged discussions about what's inside the brain can also be an actual issue.
But you know, I'm strong. So far, I handled it. It comes and goes. I confess questioning my choices, my life, my friends. I had a few meltdowns. I had cried for no reason. My heart, felt like it's sinking, drowning in the middle of the sea and no one is coming forward to help. It sucks. It's easier than explaining this to someone else.
Sometimes I'm afraid that this feeling will persist longer than I expect. However, I'm hopeful too. It lets me explore and expand my inner strengths. It lets me question my conscience and compels me to look for answers I was otherwise neglecting.

Chocolate and Me...

In association with Soulmates: Love without ownership by Vinit K Bansal . To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton . One fine morning, when the sun was bright; I was craving for chocolate, straight from night. I ran to my mother, jumped and gave her kiss, She gave me my chocolate as she promised. I was holding it tight, like the rat in eagle’s claw, Enjoying it thoroughly which my brother had saw. He came with a report card, pretending to whine, Said he’ll give me a bigger one, if I got it signed. I made my way toward the terrace for solace, After giving him my best ‘Do you think I’m stupid face’? I wave a pretentious hello to my despicable neighbor, Smiling at him, is itself a big favor. Besides failing a hundred times, he offered this time straight, ‘I’ll shower you w

The theme for the month is "and then there were none" * The day was not at all happening as I had expected it to be 25 years ago. I didn't want to go out of my room and spoke to anyone. In these 25 years of marriage things have changed drastically, Arun has no time for me, he is all about his business. Business, that had been so lucrative for us and had brought so many luxuries in our life, made us capable of educating our children in best schools of country and gave us opportunity to see the world. But still I'm not delighted. Why? I'm a proud mother of two kids, who are now in leading firms of country, they have given me everything I had expected from them but still I'm alone on my 50th birthday. Why? I should be cheerful and
