Who Are You When the World Asks?

There comes a time when the world stands in front of you, arms crossed, eyes unblinking, and asks the one question you never really prepared for: Who are you? And the worst part? If you don’t know the answer, the world answers for you. It molds you, labels you, fits you into a convenient box,...

Sooner or Later, Everyone Sits Down to a Banquet of Consequences

Life has a strange way of catching up. It’s like a script being written in real time, every action leaving behind a footprint that follows, silently but persistently.

“The Dance Between Destiny and Choice: Who Really Chooses the Path?”

Sometimes, as I walk through life, I wonder about the paths I’ve taken and the ones that never even came into view. It’s like a grand, unspoken question that lingers in the air: Did I choose this path, or did it choose me? It’s not the kind of thing you think about in the rush...

‘Some infinities are bigger than other infinities.’

Destined or Deserving

Very often I see people cursing the situation or blame the person who isn’t actually the one to catalyze it.
