Innocence... is what we miss!!

Hey friends,

Finally back to blogging after a long time. Though the vacations were on, the lack of ideas prevented me from writing. I did write on a few topics but were not good enough to post as it didn’t had that feel which will just touch your hearts.

One fine day I had a great dinner with 2 of my close school friends and we just went on and on discussing the school things. On my way back I thought that we just re-lived all the memories, we had fun doing that but what is the matter and why the present is so much different than past. We are the same personnel, we still do the same things we used to do but there is something which is lacking which just takes us prompts us to travel back in time.

The thing which I thought lacking is the word “Innocence”. If you have observed whenever you start remembering your school days and remember all the mastis and all the good or bad incidents about your school life, you will always say that they were the most beautiful days when compared to the present scenario. Why is that?  This is all due to this word called innocence. School days /Childhood were the days when we used to do all those innocent little stuff and still we would sneak out without someone noticing it. The words “fame”, ”success”, ”jealousy” just simply didn’t used to exist at that time that was all because the feeling of innocence was behind all the good/bad things we did. We never used to do something for our sake or we never used to do something with some grudge in our mind. Everything was just simply pure and humble, we learnt the sentence “I want to make a humble request”, over the years the sentence has remained same but the meaning has changed. Then we used to actually request for something humbly and now the word humble just appears in the sentence so that it sounds good.

Innocence being lost is something which is not in our hands. As we term in gujarati “Duniyadaari sikhvi pade” (we need to learn to deal with the world). This is something which has just forced us to shed of that innocence and humbleness and do things which in reality our conscience will never ever permit but who has time to listen to conscience nowadays.

The main aim of bringing up this topic was, we cannot change the things but we should know what has made the things so different. The things are and will remain the same as they are, but sometimes we need answers to what we feel. The world, the people and the memories will remain the same but the only thing that will change is the times with those people with that world and with those memories. That time has gone but once in a while you will go back to that time and will always crave to re-live those times when you lived your life like you wanted. I will end this post by this line:-

“Over the years we have learned to deal with world but what we have forgotten is dealing with ourselves.”

Life is all about unleashing yourself..

Hello Friends,

The last time when I wrote an article was 2 months back and now I am here again writing my article. In the midst of the last article and present article, my blog, the little piece of writing which I used to do for fun, opened a new door for me and I became the Chief Executive Editor of my University Magazine. So needless to say that, I was busy writing for that but at the end of the day I am a blog writer and I did miss writing my small articles, so here I am with my next article because no matter where you go, we humans will always return to the roots of our success.

I thought a lot about my next topic, but didn’t find any single good topic about my next article and suddenly I thought I am helpless about what to write. But very coincidentally an idea struck me why not to write on the opportunities that we get in day to day life. When I started writing did I know that this small blog of mine would help to become an editor of an university newspaper? I started writing because I loved writing and I thought why not to extend this thing to another level by opening a blog. Sometimes in life you never know, that the small time pass talent, we term it that way as such, is actually an art which other people are dying to admire.

If you sit in fear of failure and don’t come out all guns blazing than its no point possessing that talent. You are doing injustice to yourself. If you possess a talent, you have to show it to people through any damn medium. In this tech-friendly world, there is no lack of mediums to showcase your talent. If you don’t publicize yourself, than you are going nowhere. What is the use of having that ability if I can’t do any good with it? This is life and life is all about unleashing yourself. Life is not about sitting back but it is going into that open world and shouting that here I am and here what I am good at. Even if you get a small opportunity to showcase your talent than just don’t fear just take that opportunity because you never know that small opportunity leads to so many bigger opportunities.

My aim about writing this article is that during the course of last one year, I have met so many people who are good at so many things still they are sitting quiet under the hoods and I feel sorry for them because they are not aware of the exposure in the outer world and fear failure. Failure is not the end of the world, failure in fact is the second opportunity that life is giving you to come back bigger and stronger. I will still emphasize on the line that you have no idea what life has instore for you if you start showcasing your talent. I would like to conclude this not so philosophical article by this line

“Life is the biggest stage to unleash yourself, just be fearless and show your talent on those small platforms because no matter how the big plant is, it is developed upon a small seed”
