time- the loneliest sinner


Time is the loneliest sinner. It renders all injustice, instills inspiration, ignites truth, and oversees plagues, wars, and atrocities. It has seen all, been all, known all, and is all. Alone. Quiet. In the tick of every second, the bell of every hour, the sunrise of every day.

How little do we know of Time? How old is Time? How well do we understand it? How much has it seen disappear while we strive to prove our futile significance?

If there is an entity, a concept we understand, but cannot truly perceive, is it more powerful than Time? The great equalizer. The thief silently that controls our actions, guides our thoughts, and changes worlds, while stealing from us the life we so closely guard.

Time is God. It creates, and it destroys. If God isn't a man or a woman, and It isn't human, well, it's not too fancy to assume that you're reading this right now because Time dictates whether you are free to do so. For it is the loneliest sinner.

excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude

"If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way." Martin Luther King Jr said that. When you think of excellence, words like being the best, being closest to perfect and being exceptional in whatever one does, flash through the mind. It is not a skill that is inborn in some and acquired by others, like writing or painting. It is an attitude that you develop in yourself. The habits that make you, you. Yes, excellence is a part of you. The attitude of being extremely good at whatever you do, and doing it with utmost hard work and dedication, is excellence. You better yourself. Fix mistakes. Do your best. Seek greatness. All the time. That is what marks you from the rest. The will to dream. The striving to achieve great feats. Refusing to settle for mediocrity. Doing what nobody else has done. Pushing boundaries of possibility. Breaking barriers. Going where no soul has been. Excellence gives satisfaction to the heart, and success comes automa...

Did We Score A Goal?

Around a month back, the football frenzy that the FIFA World Cup was, concluded. Many fans were disappointed while many others rejoiced even as Germany led a dream run to glory . For many players this journey came to a rather abrupt and discordant end. History repeated itself, though on a much grander scale, big dominating names failed to meet expectations while beautiful and good football helped some underdogs taste remarkable, unprecedented yet short-lived successes. The FIFA World Cup Brasil 2014 was perhaps the most viewed event ever in the history of mankind(Whoa!) For me though, it did not mean much. Not that I did not enjoy the beautiful game that football is (arguably the most beautiful and by far the most popular game in the world) once in a while, but I merely stand for the fact that five in every seven people worldwide do not follow it. In addition, the remainder two in every seven people were largely unaffected by the outcome of the event, and went on perfectly well...

nightmares

With mad purpose I break tonight, remembering the phoenix that died trying to rebirth. It is the same story, the one with a different character, but the same actor. Night has broken. Shambles of mental monologues have disintegrated into complicated dialogues with no point. This is the syncope I keep trying to pronounce — the loss of sound from within the words, where one eats up parts of the word in course of habit, and I eat up parts of my sentences, in course of poor habit. An incomplete nightmare, always leaving the possibility of its completion as a prospect of horror. Desolation inviting loneliness. A melody that glitches in the middle, a song that sings to itself, recalling its words from the echoes, but never quite getting them right. This is most definitely a trance. I am not awake. Silence hears the universe call out for hope, the distance fading it all. The universe continues anyway. The coherence still broken. The words still haphazard, but not quite. ...
