...and the world was silent again..

This post has been published by me as a part of the Blog-a-Ton 35; the thirty-fifth edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton. The theme for the month is "...and the world was silent again"


Somehow, I am not able to write any substantial articles now a days, earlier I thought it was due to my lack of time, weird schedule and irregular diurnal rhythm. I tried mending it but to no avail, then I thought may be personal troubles and stress has finally got to my creative bug and I tried writing in peace. Problem grew tougher and stronger, then I realized its a cumulative effect of all these things. True it is that if life was not so complicated and the world was not spinning so fast its a wonderful place to be in.

The ostentatious breed is proliferating and the true beings have stopped to breathe. You look around and you realize you are surrounded by strange faces whom you dont even recognize.
How many times has this happened with you people that you woke up and realized that there is a longing, a deep seated aching that makes you feel lost and helpless?
How many times has this happened that you are going through the monotonous routine of your life, shuffling through various mundane tasks at a time and suddenly you realize you have gone deaf and the world was silent again, except for your beating heart that too in vain?

Well I hate to admit it publicly but I guess it needs courage to admit that I have hit the lowest ever of my life in every sphere and the world is indeed  silent again for me...

What am I doing to cope with it?? I really dont know.....

                                                            to be continued.

    yea Rathika.. we have all been there haven’t we… that silence that kills us by not SHOUTING what needs to be done to come out of the vicious circle we have trapped ourselves into…

    Do visit my blog! Would love to see you by! *cheers*

    You do write extremely well . I guess every writer passes through this phase one time or the other . Try concentrating on reading rather than writing for a change . It helps me to rekindle my creative side . Hope to read good articles from you :)

    It definitely takes courage to admit some things in public and you did that! Bravo!! As to rough patches, well, I guess its a circle of life. I hope you come out of tangles and get to see the smiles and brighter side of life. But the truth is, sometimes even that is all fake too.. Ah the complications of the world and humans..

    At least you vented it out. Hugs, better times will come soon :)

    सुन्दर पोस्ट

    कड़कती बिजलीया बरसात है
    उड़ना मुश्किल है मानता हू आसान नहीं
    परिंदा हू उड़ना मेरी आदत है
    बैठना मेरे लिए कोई समाधान नहीं

    hey ritesh,
    well its an initiative by a league of bloggers to decide a topic every month(chosen by the bloggers by voting) and writing on it on a stipulated day.
    The winner is also chosen democratically by voting.
    Do participate, it keeps the flame burning.

    From the lowest, there is only one option - TO RISE.

    (I am sure, this just a fiction. So, I don't express my concern!)
