" 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 "✨

In a busy room, everyone talked and laughed, but I felt alone. Their voices blended together, and I couldn’t focus. It was like I was behind a glass wall, watching but not really part of it. I felt peaceful in my own thoughts, even as the chatter surrounded me. Though I was surrounded by people, I was lost in my own little world, watching life happen without me.

In a moment of raw clarity, the world feels like a jagged landscape, its harshness cutting through the fabric of perception. Eyes, once sheltered in the comfort of illusion, now confront a reality that feels like a relentless assault. Each glance reveals the stark truths of suffering, chaos, and indifference, as if the very act of seeing is an invitation to witness the brutality of existence. The weight of despair presses heavily, threatening to rip the soul from its anchor. In this agonizing awareness, vulnerability surfaces, exposing the fragility of hope amidst the unforgiving glare of a world that often feels devoid of compassion. It's a jarring awakening, where the beauty once seen becomes obscured by the shadows of stark truths, leaving an indelible mark on the spirit.

As Diwali ends and semester exams begins, the festive crackers are swapped for stacks of textbooks. Us who once chatted about sweets are now frantically trading notes, shouting, “Did you study this?” Amidst the chaos, someone's messed up relationship problems in literature seem harder than finding the last piece of ladoo. The so called black tea nights replace Diwali celebrations, and the only fireworks come from the stress of group study sessions. Welcome to the post-Diwali reality, where survival becomes the ultimate goal!

One day, I saw a duck quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack, quack quack and quack quack which made me realise that not everything you say should make sense to someone who doesn't get you. So just quack quack or vow vow or meow meow or whatever you like. Just thought you should know.

First things first,  What you want is important than the rest. I repeat, What you WANT is important than the rest. "When you find somebody good, keep them in your life". -Tom Ford We have less time to care about others. So why worry about others perception when you have someone to make memories with. (P.S.- it's not about me)

 You never know who she is. You never know what she had gone through. You never know how much it costs her to be this. You never know how suffocating you made her through your "concern". You never know her battles with trust.   You never know  In the end, YOU NEVER KNEW.
