Rants and Deep Talks: My Biggest Fear

I have been asked a lot  of times in my life; What is my biggest fear? I don't really knew what it was, I am not afraid things people are normally afraid of. I am not afraid of heights, some insect, the dark or ghosts. I always thought I was the most afraid of being left alone in the world, being lonely, but I have recently realised, everyone is afraid of this. No one wants to be left alone, not even Aromantic people. So I re-evaluated my definition of fear, fear is a reaction you have to something you never want to encounter because you have not yet learnt to fight it or as many people might say, overcome it. So what is the one thing I never want to encounter, the one thing that leaves me numb, angry, distorted, vulnerable, something I seem to always be powerless against, and the answer is- Conflict.
My biggest fear in life is Conflict. Now some might say, "Oh, you just don't know how to fight.", well then why do I feel everything that fear is when someone I know fights, whether it be my friends or my family, why do I always avoid conflict when its in front of me, its because I am scared and sadly i have not yet learnt how to overcome it, except sometimes when I try to talk to the people who the conflict is in between, but that's mostly me helping them and not me resolving my fear.
I don't think this fear of mine is ever going to go away, because it's not fear of something like spiders, you can't just hold conflict, realise they are harmless and move on. I need to figure out a way of overcoming my fear and I hope I will do it soon, after I clear off all the other things I need to do. Anyhoo, bye.

It wasn't Supposed to Happen this Way

It is no use mentioning the time of the day, as these days Sameer was numb to the experience of the passage of time and couldn’t have told you the time. All he could have told u was that the sun was out and there was a breeze. The urn in his hands felt as if it was a part of his body now. He didn’t know this, but his son told him that he had spent the entire previous day clutching the urn in his hands. Sameer was astonished to hear this, not that he had spent the entire day doing this, but the fact that it happened yesterday. He knew yesterday happened, he just couldn’t tell if he was there. He heard a voice, he looked around to see whose it was, it was his son’s, standing right beside him.”When did he get here?”, he thought to himself or at least he should have. “Pa come on we need to go, it’s a long drive.” “Hmm” Sameer was in his senses more, the numbness had started to fade, he remembered what day it was. He wished he hadn’t. He got into his son’s car, a green chevy beat. ...

Food for Thought:Something none of us are comfortable talking about in a social setting.

"Something none of us are comfortable talking about in a social setting." I knew you read this and thought that the something was sex. It isn't, ok? Clear your dirty thoughts. Not everything is about sex even though anything can be, just ask the people who have balloon fetishes. A few years ago, while i was surfing on the internet and drinking a very nice, super chilled ice tea; I came across the term "Gender Spectrum". Yeah its gender, don't run away, open your minds and please continue reading. Please, don't be that guy. Now of course, like any good digital age teenager, I clicked on the link. I  learnt that day that many people believe that gender is not male and female, Its rather a giant spectrum on which you can lie anywhere. Now a lot of people say this theory is false and gender is only what is in your pants. I urge all  of u to now look into your pants and see what your gender is according to these people. This is one side of how gender is...

Rants and Deep Talks: Motivation

I spend a lot of my time thinking, it can be about anything, my future, the world's future, what other ways at the end of Endgame could have prevented Iron Man's death, Yaddah Yaddah Yaddah.  From time to time I like to play philosopher, mostly about myself, I am self absorbed that way. This time might have been a result of watching 3 seasons of The Good Place in 3 days, maybe not, who is to tell? To be honest, I'd make a great philosopher, maybe I'll take a philosophy class in college, who is going to stop me? Well maybe my parents, but again they'd only be able to try. Getting off topic, motivation. That is what made me want to write something other than a story after so long. Most of the things I have done in my life I have had only 1 of 2 motivations, either I have wanted to do it or I have had no other choice, because of either someone else or because I cornered myself into that position. In the past 2 years I have been trying to find a motivation for something...
