Hey Hey

Hey World, I don't blog much these days. I used to blog regularly earlier.

What’s your love song?

These days I have been listening to this romantic song on a loop. I even shared this as status on social media and got some interesting responses, some thought I have found someone special in my life again and hence the song.

Are you happy?

I woke up feeling a bit sad today, like I do on most days. I don't know why I normally don't wake up happy and excited to take on the day, like lots of people post on social media. I have some idea about my mental state and I am getting better everyday so I am not too worried. As long as I am making a progress in right direction, it's ...

When you are in love with a God

Just something I wrote some years ago for someone, I thought I was really in love with. “When she smiles, whole room brightens up. When she laughs, you feel lucky to be alive. When she starts her sentence with - "Do you know something?", you know it’s probably nothing, but you still look forward to hear everything. She will find little...
