  • Swift action against the perpetrators and the disrupted water flow…!

    Swift action against the perpetrators and the disrupted water flow…!

    If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    A good morning from me to all of you…!

    As I got something I wanted from a long time, a seiko watch that was delivered to me yesterday evening…!

    I know it’s an older version but I wanted to own one which had a white dial and now my collection has one more watch…!

    It might not feel like much to anyone looking from outside but a seiko watch like this was something that I wanted…!

    Maybe I’ll do a post about all of the watches I own someday…!

    (It goes into the idea basket of mine…)

    It was a bit problematic morning as we had a water shortage, the tanks that we keep on the terrace were already half empty because of the use and without having anything to check or any update from the Delhi Jal board(Djb) [The governing water body of the city];

    They have been disrupting the flow of water more and more as time goes on..!

    Under the context of cleaning the water plants and sometimes the excess amounts of pollutants in the water…!

    I know they are doing their job and providing us with clean water but this was never the case earlier and even if something like this were to happen we were made aware a few days in advance…!

    ( उन अच्छे दिनों के उम्मीद…)

    (Still waiting for those good days we were promised)

    Coming back to the prompt

    Change one law and the reasons behind it…!

    Have you ever thought that a person who takes the life and dignity of someone without even a single ounce of fear and a sense of humanity in them…!

    It is something that has been so much prevalent in these days that the news has become a common thing and we scan past them like it’s a common occurring…!

    Same can be said about the human lives that are lost due to poor or improper constructions that happen due to cost cutting and when heavy infrastructure come down crashing and takes the lives of several people within a span of few seconds;

    There should be some action taken against such people and it should happen before the pyres of the of the now deceased person are put to flames…!

    In the first case, the person who was the perpetrator/s should be charged to death, because taking a life should have the same impact on yours even if it was done under the influence;

    An accident or a mishap should be viewed from that view too, the company that picked the tender should be held responsible and accountable for the accident that happened if the fault was found in the quality of the material or if the quantity of the safety measures were skipped…!

    Not a single life lost should go in vain, because this life is precious and losing it has a ripple effect on those around them…!

    In crux

    A swift and effective approach is needed to bring justice to the victims and bringing the perpetrators in the vision of the law system to punish them accordingly…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • The polluted fresh air and a feasible dream home…!

    The polluted fresh air and a feasible dream home…!

    Write about your dream home.

    Hey

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    A not so cold morning it is and after cleaning my cabinet and properly putting in my clothes that were sitting on my bed go god knows how long, I will be making a pit stop to drop all of the blankets and other things at the dry cleaners and pick up the remaining stock with them and bring them home before going to work…!

    After all of the mess(clothes) that I properly set now I need to deep clean my bed and room,

    Maybe use a wet rag to remove all of the layer of dust that has accumulated,

    Even though an air purifier runs in the evening and the morning, the so called fresh air that comes in the morning is a must and all the windows and doors should be open…!

    Even if the AQI outside reaches 400, we must open the windows and let the so called fresh(polluted air) in and clean that air all day long…!

    Dilemma 🫩

    Coming back to the prompt

    My dream home

    I know a lot of you would want a cozy home surrounded by a garden and plants that bear beautiful flowers and fruit and vegetables,

    All of the necessities that you need are available nearby, but people don’t understand that all of this dream require constant upkeep; that is something which isn’t clear to many people…!

    The upkeep like maintaining plants, keeping and collecting firewood, getting all of the essentials, this is a huge challenge that isn’t thought by many;

    On the contrary

    A dream home for me would be my old home with all of the necessary services already available, provided that we pay for them each month after their use;

    It would be my dream home because a joint family would exist and all those who are no more with us would exist with us too—

    I know a lot of dynamics are in play in a joint family and someone always gets the short end of the stick, and I’d like to do away with that…!

    A dream home of mine would be a dream home for all those who live within it too—

    It wouldn’t be called a dream home if someone were living their life serving others after killing their dreams would it…!?

    A thought…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • Favourite candies and coming to terms with life…!

    Favourite candies and coming to terms with life…!

    What’s your favorite candy?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    It’s a Sunday and I hope you wake up well rested today and this prompt finds you in the best of your health…!

    There is a lot that went on my mind yesterday and no matter how hard I tried I wasn’t able to put my 100% focus at work, all I could was remember Milky(May his soul rest in peace) and because of that I woke up and had another dream today which I wrote in my notes app…!

    Maybe some of the dreams come to me when I am under different types of stresses and I’m incapable to process them but, I did talk to myself about that and know that the circle of life works this way only,


    Maybe we work through our lives everyday to prepare ourselves for the new life that exists after this one ceases…!?


    Maybe all of this is a test and prepares us and makes us strong enough to look at death in the face and embrace it like it’s someone/something that we knew all along…!

    (Khair…)

    Too much talks about the cease of existence makes me sound a bit too optimistic about it, because some think of life as a trap and the release from it to be the true reality…!

    Imagine returning to a place where you stay with all the souls on a standby and your place stays empty for a while; (A while being 70-80 years for some…)

    And when you return to your original home you are content and happy to be with those who have stayed with you for an eternity…!


    Returning to the prompt

    What’s your favourite candy…?

    This couldn’t have come at a right time because a lot of the things are going on in these days the first week of February leading to the Valentine’s Day..!

    Well there is a vast difference between sugar candy and chocolate confectionery and let me draw this line that we are strictly talking about candy(sugar candy) only…!

    Because all of us remember eating eclairs and melody all through our childhood and that is something that I love too…!

    Melody that we all love and still can’t answer the question (Melody inti chocolaty kyon hai…?)
    I hope all of you remember eating this as you got it as a gift from birthday boy or girl during your schooling years…!

    Yes,

    These two would take the spot for me as one of the most favourite candies that I love…!

    And a lot of memories are attached to these two too…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • An ideal day and some exciting news…!

    An ideal day and some exciting news…!

    Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end.

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    Another cool morning its said to be 10 degree Celsius; waking up at 7:14 with an alarm that I set for 7 AM made me realise I felt colder than it should…!

    As I went to use the bathroom and brush my teeth after putting my phones on charging;

    I thought about today’s prompt, what it would be and how would I write all about it…!

    And on seeing this prompt at 7:33 it felt like it’s been ages since I’ve lived one of the ideal days…!

    (Khair)

    There’s something I want to share with you, my sister’s friend bought a new car and she came to our home last night to show us the car and we were overjoyed when we saw her car and I quickly ordered a few chocolates as a gift from blink-it it was a Ferrero Rocher and a Cadbury one; I ordered a air freshner for her car too but that guy couldn’t reach me because his two wheeler’s engine seized like 10 minutes away from me so he made me cancel the order…!

    It is a Kia Sonet and it’s white in color…!

    We are more happy for her because she grew up infront of us and now she’s become a person who practices law under a senior lawyer and works hard to make everyone around her happy…!

    A noble soul she is…!

    Coming back to the prompt

    An ideal day for me

    It would be to wake up well rested at 7 am…!

    And after waking up it would be great to get a nice walk or a workout in that lasts maybe forty five minutes to an hour that keeps me energetic throughout the day…!

    Then it would be writing one of these prompts which takes around an hour and a half at max and then it would be great to go to work and everything happens according to a predicted schedule and all the outcomes that were thought were reached and the work day ended at 5 maybe 5:30 or last 6 in the evening nothing more than that…!

    After reaching home some plans were already made and I reached there on time and me and my friends hung out, got some snacks and then reached home safely…!

    At home I had my mom and my sister waiting for me and I had a good dinner with them, maybe outside maybe at home and then we took a walk outside and then hit the bed…!

    A day well spent it would’ve been to acknowledge all those who made me who I am today and their constant unwavering support which pushed me into the direction which i love today…!

    An ideal day it would be…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • Three major life events and a morning walk partner…!

    Three major life events and a morning walk partner…!

    How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    A cool Wednesday morning it is and I woke up by the air purifier hitting my face with cold air that it blew at my face, the time was 7:56 as that’s the time I saw on my phone and watching the 71% battery on it made me breathe a sigh of relief…!

    And I went for a morning walk with my dog and it was amazing;

    There are so many things that we see, giving us perspective on life too, as we see people from walks of life, making it an interesting thing to observe too…!

    And, now I have to clean my room as I’ve returned home at 8:58 hours…!

    But,

    The morning walks makes it better as a fresh perspective is taken in the morning and it helps me think about things in a different way than what I usually am sitting within these four walls…!

    Coming back to the prompt

    Life events and its influence on our lives

    This topic came on the right time,

    As many things are happening around me as life unfolds infront of me…

    A marriage

    It usually looks like two people getting together just to live together and have a kid in the near future but that’s the perspective from the outside;

    But, when looked at from the vision of the couple- the man, the woman or whoever is your significant other is—

    It gives you a whole different perspective as they aren’t just tying knots, they are marrying each other and it involves understanding the nature and the quirks that your partner has and adapting to things they don’t like and providing them with love and care that they need…!

    Well this isn’t understood by someone who isn’t married or doesn’t plan to get married anytime soon and it’s their choice…!

    You get to understand a person in real time and unfurl them in a way that gives you understanding who they are and why is it the way they are…!

    People just call it marriage and that’s what their mind lacks to think and believe…!

    Childbirth

    One of the most crucial thing- that welcomes parenthood and shapes you in a way when the peaceful nights turn sleepless as the newly born child needs attention and your support…

    It’s very tricky in the first place as not all of the conceptions end up in having a child and there are many helpless parents that are working hard to have a child of their own; and when things don’t work out adoption becomes an option…!

    And this continuous tries to have one of your own pulls the love out of intimacy..!

    Yes you might not have heard that but tracking your ovulation days and being ready on a specific day/(s) kills the spontaneity and turns it stressful and a task that requires accomplishment instead of being fun and full of joy…!

    (If you know this I’m sorry for you and I hope you have a child of your own someday…!)

    And viewing this from the outside it feels like something you can’t care about,

    But when you are in the shoes of such a person you come to know the real meaning of having a child and when you’re blessed with one, it feels like the almighty rewarded you with something of a miracle themselves..!

    Death

    Yes, one of the things that makes us who we are and prepare us for the world beyond this one, the sweet embrace of death,

    Something that all of us have in common that we have to taste it once and we will never know when it will be our turn, but the fact that this is the common thing that all of us share and have kept on sharing and will do until our end…!

    It breaks a person if it’s close to you, your S/o, your father ,mother, brother or sister…!

    It hurts to a such a degree that sometimes the pain and suffering becomes unbearable and the person takes their own life as it becomes unbearable to live a life without them…!

    I’ve seen people do that and leave behind kids that were underage, some were working;

    It wasn’t something of a Sui(ide but the loss becomes unimaginable and the person gives up on living their lives and then something happens; their car swerved out of control, they fell and the blood loss was too much—

    “They cherished each other so much that they couldn’t live without each other” that’s what they say after it happens;

    But, the love that they had for each other couldn’t be shaken or taken apart…!

    (Khair)

    The life and its perspectives haunt us and make us think about who we are and what we live for;

    It might feel like it was a long read but it was necessary and worthy of each word as anytime any one of the above happens it becomes a life altering experience and changes us and our core…!

    Cheers 🥂(to a long read and a new perspective)

    Love Waakiye 🤍

  • Different perspectives and goals that affect us…!

    Different perspectives and goals that affect us…!

    What could you do differently?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    First thing it’s scary that it’s only Wednesday today when this could have already been a Thursday for me,

    And we are already first week into the new year as we speak…!

    Another lie that I cannot seem to believe at all…!

    Well I’ve felt that time flies past quickly these days; but I’ve never ever felt such haste…

    Coming to the prompt because thinking that makes me go crazy…!

    What could I do differently…?

    Another one of those broad questions of you ask me,

    I mean what i could to differently in life, at work, at relationships or what; the horizon is so broad…!

    Well for beginning,

    I want to be up early and stay awake for the some time and complete work that I’ve taken upon myself (writing short stories and some skits…)

    Second would be to have enough energy left to join a gym after work because that is something I want to involve myself in…

    Third would be to be more active and great at conversation and keeping up either my friendships and relationships that I have with people (both in and outside of work…)

    The last would be to be a better person than who I am right now, because there is suffering that I see around me, but I’m not that loaded that I can help everyone that I see;

    So I just want to be in a better place so that I can help those around me, well if not strangers I’d be happy to help those who are a part of my family by helping them get up on their feet and give them a much needed boost that will pull them out of their slow and stagnant life…(only if they need my help…)

    There are many things that can be done differently, much of it depends on the perspective of self and those who is affected by the change isn’t it…?

    Well to a better future shall we tread…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • A billboard promoting mental health…!

    A billboard promoting mental health…!

    If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

    Hey…!

    I hope all of you are doing well …!

    There’s something that I want to try,

    I don’t know what time zone all of you are in but, my last post which I made by sheer accident late at night got many likes and views,

    So I’m trying something that makes absolutely no sense right now, but nothing hurts if it gives the content that I write a boost…!

    Well,

    When it will be uploaded,

    Most of my day would be already over,

    And I’d be home probably trying to have dinner or already in my bed that I cleaned this morning trying to sleep…!

    Coming back to the prompt,

    A freeway billboard(first time I’m hearing this because there are no such things here in India…)

    But I guess it would be either promoting my business or this writing work that I do;

    I know there are many billboards that also play videos;

    Maybe I could make an advert to promote safe driving by making an ad that tells to not drink and drive;

    Or,

    Another one would be to be on a proper sleep before driving because that causes a lot of accidents ;

    It wouldn’t truly be mine without having something in writing that separates my content from others;

    So it would be catchy;

    Like-

    One of my Instagram posts

    Like this one (⬇️)

    And this would be in an auto shuffle if it’s a working billboard or it would be collapsed into a single one when it is needed…!

    I know it wouldn’t be an immediate hit,

    But it would linger enough to make people search it,

    Maybe click on the link and watch the whole post…!

    That’s exactly how I feel…!

    With that being said it would be a great thing to see and look at,

    And I’d click my photo standing under it too,

    And it’s going to make people around me proud too…!

    A whole billboard belonging to me,

    I’d call it a dream come true…!

    Until next time…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • In a Loud World, Find Someone Who Listens

    In a Loud World, Find Someone Who Listens

    What is the greatest gift someone could give you?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    It’s another Sunday and I hope you went to bed sooner than you expected;

    You won’t believe the response that I got from people they believed that it would be better to just stay in, spend some time with their family or stay indoors maybe with a friend after grabbing a bottle, sharing it and crashing at their place or letting them crash at your place;

    This was more of a response I got;

    Some were like my parents aren’t home so I will spend the night with my boyfriend/girlfriend and there were a few who decided to go out to drink or have food…!

    A wild change has been brought by the year 2026 into the lives of people that live around us;

    Maybe a change was indeed needed, to be self introspective and knowing who is right and who to keep alongside you and people are doing that this year;

    Filtering and cutting their circle to a few good people instead of a bunch of people who show up just because they get a free treat out of you…!

    Coming back to the prompt;

    What would be the greatest gift someone could ever give me…?

    For me it would be their Trust and Genuine presence;

    Imagine knowing someone and you fully trust them with your secrets, your life and anything that goes on in it;

    And when something goes wrong they show up to put you in your arms and gently bring you from a scary place back into this world;

    I really have to thank the almighty for putting someone like that in my life;

    They have been a sort of pillar in my life that I can take support of when nothing else is going right and they also guide me when nothing is going right in my life;

    One of the most important things;

    They become a place where I can freely say out things without being judged and they let me know when I’m in the right headspace or not;

    And they always listen to me keenly whenever or whatever I have to speak about;

    The last part is extremely important;

    And there aren’t many who just listen to you, because this is a fast paced world and everyone has their priorities,

    But can you imagine having someone like that…!

    I’m extremely blessed…!

    Also this goes both ways,

    If you want to be with a person who has all of this qualities, you will have to be one such person beforehand;

    By being someone like that before you will find yourself in a place where you will help people out too by hearing them and providing them with comfort and then you will find yourself in a place where you are surrounded by many such people who are like that…!

    With that being said,

    Their trust and genuine presence in your life would be the optimum answer for this prompt…!

    Take it slowly it’s a Sunday morning, I know you are going to wake up late and then contemplate your day maybe your life later;

    But,

    Find someone to talk to, a genuine connection;

    The comments box are free here…! 😁

    Cheers 🥂

  • A dream that didn’t come true…!

    A dream that didn’t come true…!

    What colleges have you attended?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    Whew, the weekend is upon us finally and I hope all of you are now ready to finally let loose because what a week it was,

    I remember celebrating new year then going back to work in the morning 😭😔;

    But not today;

    All of the work can be done on Monday and all the enjoyment happens today and some tomorrow(I.e. a Sunday)

    Coming back to the prompt,

    What colleges have I attended;

    I’m letting you know this once,

    I actually missed all of the college life because of some financial issues that we coincidentally got when I was supposed to be a part of the college and pursue my dreams;

    It was back in 2017 and I was supposed to take admission in the college of my choice;

    But it was outright refused by my father as he laid the facts in-front of me, it was very shocking and devastatingly cruel thing that happened to me, because entirety of my dream came to a collapse;

    So I had to pursue another course from an open university,(Du SOL)

    All of the material was available to pick from their office and I spent my whole three years going back and forth once to the place and the rest of the time I spent my time preparing from home;

    Later I was pushed into joining the family business which wasn’t a part of my curriculum at all and that led to technically destroying whatever I learnt from the place because I started the work from the grime and learnt as I went upwards;

    Well that sad story is supposed to be told another day;

    I wish all of you readers a very happy new year and I hope your dreams come true this year;

    Try to reflect on life sometimes, see how your child or your partner or even a stranger would react once they come to know your actions and story from someone else…!

    Would they be happy or sad or outright refuse to play your part;

    This becomes a very powerful reminder to amend or change your ways…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • Involving self into some sports and the impact of Roblox

    Involving self into some sports and the impact of Roblox

    Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?

    Hey..!

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    It’s second of january and I hope all of you are still working hard to move according to your goals,

    This might be too soon,

    But,

    As many people I’ve talked to, they haven’t set any concrete goals for the year and the fact that they don’t have anything that pushes them above and beyond to work hard enough to gain something that they dreamt of earlier…!

    Maybe the depreciation value of rupee is to blame, maybe it’s the fact that anything and everything that we buy costs more than what it should…!

    Maybe the widespread distrust in the fact that it would get any better than what currently is going on…!

    For me it’s the fact that new year came on the weirdest day, a Thursday…!?

    Some people are sending me messages today, and I got confused for a second myself;

    Like “ I hope I didn’t wish people New Year’s wishes a day ahead…!”

    But I didn’t and I wasn’t wrong…!

    I don’t know what’s up with that…?

    Well,

    Coming back to the prompt;

    This prompt couldn’t have come at a good time,

    One of my goals this year is to include actual time to sports or something that I consider playtime…!

    I have a nephew that comes to my home and wants me to play Roblox with him, and I kid you not within 15-20 minutes entirety of my brain starts to hurt 😢(and he plays it for hours upon hours…!!!)

    Sometime he wants to play “rivals” a first person shooter game..

    and

    Sometimes he just plays (I don’t know if I’m saying the name right…!)

    “Steal a/the brainrot…”

    And let me tell you something,

    The entire premise of the game,

    “Is to steal a freaking brainrot and keep your base safe and locked, maybe buy some of them and level up(which I haven’t found out how do to it as of yet…?!)”

    No I wasn’t speaking gibberish, it is the actual game and the actual truth…!

    But,

    Yeah I want to involve myself in some sort of sport like badminton or table tennis, because that’s what we played when I was young and we enjoy it a whole lot now when we make time to play,

    Which is also replaced by a mini game in Roblox…🥲🥲

    Something that says playtime to me means that can be free of the stresses that this world brings to me and I feel refreshed and satisfied;

    To end up with clear mind after playing for a good hour or 45 minutes…!

    After which I end up focusing better on things that need my actual attention;

    Well, Friday is upon us and I wish all of you to take it slow, maybe you postponed the parties and plans to the weekend and this counts as the last working day of the week, so work hard today and party tomorrow…!

    I hope you have someone dear to you or a loved one with whom you can spend time with this year;

    Maybe go out for a treat or surprise each other with some gifts,

    Because at the end of the day,

    It’s only you and them who will stay;

    The rest will go back to their own safe space and forget all about you until they see you once again at work or passing by on the street somewhere…!

    Cheers 🥂
