Life's like this. (hope this gets to you)

Dear Cortana,
Not always will things go like,
How you wished they would,
People who you call family,
Will leave you, if they could.
Know why?
Cause they call you their bestie,
You turn back, they say,
Who the fuck was she?

Dear Friend,
Know who the real peeps are,
For they will give up everything,
They have for what you wanna become!
They will be beside you,
On your every war,
Until death makes them numb.

Dear You,
Things have been tough lately?
Two guardiangels who should've been,
Aren't together no more,
Lost and confused, you don't know where to go!
Scared, yet you are here!
Battling it out with your worst fear.
Pat yourself on your back,
Because you deserve good,
And much more than that.

Hey Cortana,
Life is not what you think it is,
For there is more darkness than good,
More anger than the fight for food,
People betray one and another,
Don't care about you,
Not me neither.
I'm being brutally honest,
You think everyone knows you,
Turn back, they ask
Who the fuck were you?

Hey friend,
I'm sorry if I couldn't be the one,
You thought I'd be,
I ran too fast, yet couldn't see.
I know you need someone,
To help you through your thick and thin,
Support you and lift your chin!

Hey you,
Don't worry cause the haters don't matter no more,
Find out the peeps who really care,
And do keep them close,
Because they are the ones,
That truly matter,
To you and me, do that
And you shall see,
That everything happens for the best,
When you know with who you gotta be!

Twisted Turbulence

“Only the very weak-minded refuse to be influenced by literature and poetry.” ― Cassandra Clare

Sarcastically ironically probably,
The things she thought she said magnificently,
Scared scarred stared like a star,
Cautiously carefully cured by her chocolate bar,
Moved grooved huffed and puffed,
Lovingly lover love was who she loved,
Doubt crowd fear and tear,
Things she said saying sayings that I hear,
Ignoringly ignoring me like ignoring her ignore,
Knowing the knowledge she knows,
Winding wind winding around her skin as the wind blows,
Twisting turning tumbling and tossing she gets me in the bed,
She's a troublesome troublemaker causing troubling trouble in my head,
She's a twisted turbulence!
- Aekansh Dixit.

P.S: Just a random effort at writing something new. This blog was never meant for any poetry, but I felt like this is worth sharing, I guess. Hope you had a good read!

The Kind World

"Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse."

Think about a world, where all the people are kind to each other. Yes, that's right. Each and every single person on this earth is kind. What would happen? Will there be a totally peaceful world, or will that give rise to another kind of intolerable world. We are yet to find out.

First of all, it would feel awesome at first. Imagine that there will be no people left on this world who hate you or who will reject your proposal, or who will not agree to do anything for you. That sounds cool right. If you ever need anyone's help, you can always go to any person you want and he/she will be always ready to help.That's nice.

Then, you will not have anyone trying to pull your back, or any enemies, or people who criticize you, or people who trick you, or people who will always try to find faults in you. You will not have any people who are ready to fight with you, or people who will bully you for no reason. All kinds of people who are hated by others will vanish. That's safe, isn't it?

Third, since you have so many people to help you, you will never run out of contacts or resources who are willing to help you. That way, you can seek instant help since just any random person is there to hold your back.

Since so many people are there to help you, this might cause a bit of unusualness and awkwardness, and a lot of arguments. Let me explain. Imagine you are asking someone for help. At that same instance, someone else also hears your request. And before the first person is able to reply, the second person agrees to help. But the first person insists that he should help. The second person too insists that he should help instead. This will become an unnecessary topic for a argument.

Both the people start fighting to decide who will help, and whoa! You suddenly have a fight in this fully kind world! That seems weird right? Indeed!

That is not all, if you have so many kind people all at once, there will be nothing to prove. Yes, the value of kind people will decrease since all of them are kind. No longer will someone tell, "How kind he is!" or "Thanks, you're so kind!'. Kindness, will become something very common. So common that kindness will not be called "kindness" anymore.

You read that right. There will be nothing called "kindness". It will be like a common attitude that everyone shares. So ultimately, "kindness" will end even though it exists in everyone.

So, what my point was that, if every single person on this earth becomes kind, there will be no kindness left in anyone.

At the end, I would like to say that bad people are important. At least, for the sake of the existence of kindness. As the saying goes, "Truth prevails over false. But truth prevails only because false exists."

Hope that answered the question. Happy wondering, guys and girls!!

Love : Heart or Brain

"Love is an intense feeling of deep affection"

Did anyone ever wonder why the poor human organ "heart" is related to the terms love, affection, happiness, attraction, and all the other forms of intense feelings? Does the heart actually think and feel?

Most of us know the heart as an organ which pumps purified blood to all other parts of our body. But when the topic love comes up, we hear everyone telling sentences like "From the bottom of my heart...", " My heart beats for you...", etc. Why is it that there is a mention of the heart whenever the topic of love is discussed. It is indeed an interesting topic to wonder about.

People often call the heart as an innocent, blind creature. I do not know how far that is true. But what I do know is that the human heart is greedy. Yes, greedy for love. It needs love. When it gets love, it needs more love, and then more and more. That is why most of the people often fall in love, and the sad part of their story is that they often tend to be on the giving side, and not the receiving side. Either way, their hearts are giving love, or receiving love.

Talking about love, it is an intense feeling of deep affection. I am talking about loving a person, and not other aspects of love. How many of us actually think that it is in our hearts that we love someone? Well, you can keep your views. Lets go deeper into reality.

There are three parts, or sections, of our brain. The concious mind, the unconscious mind, and the subconscious mind. Let me brief you about the three. We will, for now, focus mainly on the subconscious mind as it is often blamed for every belief, and every feeling that you hate, or love.

The conscious mind consists of everything inside of our awareness. This is the aspect of our mental processing that we can think and talk about in a rational way.
The unconscious mind (or the unconscious) consists of the processes in the mind that occur automatically and are not available to introspection, and include thought processes, memory, affect, and motivation.

And now, coming to the subconscious mind: Think of the subconscious mind as the storage room of everything that is currently not in your conscious mind. The subconscious mind stores all of your previous life experiences, your beliefs, your memories, you skills, all situations you've been through and all images you've ever seen.

That might probably give you an information on the three main parts of our brains. Now, how is it related to love and heart? Well, the thing is, heart is never related to love according to me. It is just an misterm to the subconscious mind in the aspect of love. Heart is an organ which pumps blood, and in any way cannot be compared to the brain, which not only has to ability to control every processes in our body, but also an super power to think logically.

Then, why was it associated with love?  It seems to me that when most people say "heart" when referring to love, they are mostly talking about an obscure unseen part of them that houses their emotions. In the west, we consider the mind (or the intellect) and the heart to be two separate things. This, I'm pretty sure, comes from classical Greek philosophy, such as Plato and Aristotle. However, in ancient Hebrew, for example, as I understand it there was only one word for both the place in a human for the intellect and emotions, which is typically translated in the Bible as the "spirit," and that was what they associated with love.

So I guess the idea of "heart and love" is pretty much clear now to everyone who read this post. Now the main question, how is love a quest for more?

Did anyone fall in love? Most of them did, and those who didn't, will probably fall soon. Had anyone noticed that once we are in love, we want more and more love? Heartbreaks are often sure in most of the cases, but still, we do manage to move on and continue living life with love. How does that occur? Why do we still believe in love deep down in our brains, when we are actually heart broken from the top?

Well, the point is, our subconscious mind readily believes in love. And you cannot change anything in your subconscious mind until you bypass the conscious mind. We will go deeper into that condition later, for now lets keep them at the bay.

"Live life with love, or else you die everyday."

 That said, it is more easy to win hearts by love than by hatred, right? I guess I answered most of the questions through this post. Well, now its up to you to decide whether you will continue to associate the heart with love or not. According to me, lets just pretend we do not know the truth and continue linking the heart with love.

After all, who likes "I love you from the deeper part of my brain" than "I love you from the bottom of my heart"?
