Fallible Falsehood

-

 


Whenever somebody asks me, “How’s life?”, I immediately put my fake facade on to say, “O, more than perfect! Thank you.”

We desecrate our honest selves in the course of lying, in the course of being “smart”, in the course of trying to stay “up-to-date” and “modern”, and in the course of our ceaseless deception. Who doesn’t know that we all are paid back in the same coin? Well, none of us care, do we?

It is a disgrace in the name of “humanity” that we nurture a beast lurking from our within. Well, in such a way, we keep nourishing the beast inside us with such love and care that, pretty often, we hardly find a moment to foster our humanity with actual love and affection, and with proper care and tenderness. But who cares for that? We keep pretending every now and then as if we are bereft of even the tiniest morsel of ill attitude. We showcase our happy being, in spite of knowing that none of us are so at all.

The more the days fly away, the more the darkness of artificiality comes into being. Yes, it is a world under makeups. How long can it exist?

Can things go on like this forever? How long can we try to conceal the truth?

Well, we all, for sure, must keep it in mind that, one day, sooner or later, we will fail to escape from ourselves. What will we do then?

The Act of Sharing

-
Image
There are so many things we have to share with one another, right? Well, some of us do misuse this idea of sharing. We say, “Sharing is caring.” The funny thing is that we use the quote in the incorrect context a number of times, sometimes reluctantly, sometimes deliberately. What is our motive behind all these then? Well, do we then take the idea of sharing for granted? It is a matter of misfortune that we, many of us, leap before we look instead of looking before we leap. Why don’t we think a bit deeper? Yes, let’s look back at the opening sentence once again. Let us no more utter, “There are so many things we have to share with one another.” Instead, let all of us utter it a bit differently, “There are so many things that we love to share with one another.” As and when we resolve to speak from the bottom of our hearts using our conscience, we are supposed to bring positive energy not only to ourselves but also to this entire world. Yes, it will take much time indeed. Still, let ...

The Rainbow

  Human life is full of neither joy nor sorrow altogether. It is neither black nor white. Well, it is rather grey in hue. Life gives us tests after tests for the sake of seasoning us. Now, the question is: “How do we take them?” It is surely up to us whether we will take the tests as a challenge to fight back or as a source of negative thoughts to break down. Well, is there anybody whose life is full of weal through and through? Again, is there anybody whose life is woeful completely? We all are aware of the answer to the above-mentioned  questions, aren’t we? There will be sun; there will be rain. There will be light; there will be darkness. There will be ups; there will be downs. There will be victory; there will be defeat. However, irrespective of anything, life goes on. In this regard, it must be noted that even though there is appreciation, there is no assurance that there will be no criticism. Well, why don’t we think that a rainbow steals our heart after the heavy...

The Magic of Bengal Summer

-

The scorching heat of the summer in West Bengal does blister you from skin to bone. Thanks to the issues of climate change and global warming, the floating clouds that cause no rain at all add fuel to the fire. Well, you may wonder why this "stupid fellow" is talking like that. Well, the hotter the season becomes, the crazier people get to drench their dry lips. A drop of rain is the need of the day. Conspicuously, if there is drizzle, even though it brings forth a soothing breeze, is not acceptable that much. A drizzle is supposed to increase the heat. Besides, a heavy rain is what the people keep dreaming of. What is most exciting is that everybody, if the rain comes down to quench the thirst, dances in joy, almost literally. It seems so crazy to watch such an expressive ecstasy, but the earth becomes sodden and full of life once again. Broadly speaking, the entire environment, and each and every human being as if regain the lost life. The dreadful summer does try to snatch...
