Intention and Impact matters more than the size!

Man: "You are too small to do something large"

Boy : "Why can't I ? Maybe I can"

Man:(annoyed) Stop it. YOU ARE TOO SMALL AND YOUNG ! UNDERSTAND IT KID!


Corona (watches all this from behind the wall) :* Talking to himself

Look at me.. I'm much smaller in size compared to all of you yet I brought the entire nation to a standstill. A lock down for the entire nation and a fall in economy!

Hmm. I know I was brutally cruel .I'm not totally a bad guy either.

I made people unite, brought working couples together, reunited families with their children who were staying away to pursue their education, gave a break from the monotonous working schedule for the workers and relieved some students from their exam stress.

The world is filled with treachery and will soon get devoid of love , care and devotion! Blah blah !!! Didn't I prove this wrong..
Look at the newspapers now. It used to be filled with murder and rape tales. Haven't I brought an exponential decrease to such cases. Haven't I tried to re-establish the love and affection. Have a look outside. The government is working for the people with all their might and no secondary thought. The doctors and nurses are working day and night to take care of every patient . And no doubt, every worker is working for the betterment of their fellow citizens. And to all those who considers themselves to be stuck at home, can't you feel your mom's or wife's love ,who is working without any shifts to serve you with tasty delicacies.

Not only have I tried to re-establish love but also I have lend my helping hand to all of you to serve Mother Earth who was lamenting due to her extreme pain. Haven't I helped you in reducing pollution. Look how clean the air has become look at how the plant's are re-growing their green.

(Looking at that boy) I feel pity for mankind now. If you could promise me that you would continue to uphold the virtues of life and serve your Motherland and Mother Earth and I shall also promise to leave you with a more happier life than ever.

 [Corona leaves]

 Boy:(To the man) Trust me, there would be a day when this world shall realize that sometimes,small things create a huge impact just like how a baby's smile can brighten up the day.

Into the Abyss

Image
  A wandering soul now turned astray, As the last of light flickered in the darkness, To a place where our overwhelming emotions did betray, Beyond despair and darkness to a complete void. Drifting among the noises to find solitude and peace, We begin to venture into the unending veil of the dark, that looms around draining the beauty of living, Awfully locking the only asylum of euphoria. The cold aura revoke the plethora of thoughts, Sending shivers as the mind whirls through memories. Emanating from inside were questions that were not answered,  Of love, hate, regret, passion, anger, distress and fear. The very intellect of thinking comes to a halt, As the deception of a blissful journey and comfort falls, Struggles and loss engenders vulnerability to self, That we desperately want to break free these barricades. Once fallen, escaping seems like an impossible quest. But remember, the eerie silence and the dark hue was waiting for you, To shred the stardust from your skin, A...

Insanely bonded

"Doctor, there is an emergency. Your presence is required."  "Monitor the oxygen saturation and use the ventilator. Will be there in ten", I responded. My thinking process seems to be troubleshooting like a broken device. For the past 15minutes, I had been sitting in the couch trying to decide what to cook for dinner and now all I can think is to pull my coat and grab the car keys. I work in Bells Central Hospital for 12 hours a day which includes the In-patient and Out-patient care along with emergency night duties. It's only a 10 minutes drive from my flat to the hospital but it would seem like infinity. I rush to my garage and before I ignite the engine, I let Zach and Amber know that I'm heading out. "Duty calls. Heading out." "You got it, kid". Typical Amber! No one ever calls me kid other than her. I'm 27 and probably look like an old soul in a young body. Amber is my gorgeous elder sister. No siblings call each other gorgeous b...

Agony of Vulnerability

Image
Trying to stifle the agony of vulnerability, As anxiety sets in, bringing along torture, anger and sadness. With thousands of unanswered "what if", the mind seems to be racing And drowning in the deluge of emotional strain. Haunted by the impact of anxiety on a fragile heart, Exhaustion slowly creeps in and body shudders. Every breath becomes slower and anguish takes over, Losing control in the wilderness of the inflicted pain. Staying up countless nights crying over nothing, Gripping the bedsheets and popping on too many pills, With no excuse for this agitated and abhorrent behaviour, Everything around seems to be a mirage of some haunting tragedy. Hopes of socializing gets shattered, By overwhelming fear and the very nagging thought of "What if I'm not good enough?" Even when the clock ticks 3 at night, these contagious thoughts gnaw away the peace.  Tears caress down the cheeks, And the excruciating pain of being devoured by worries, claws and rips the lining...
