Kashmir!

Kashmir...
I have grown up with willing it to be a part of India!
it was before too; yes! but somehow I don't think that was just enough.

and yes, possibly our neighbors have the same dreams too...

but the thing is...
u cant erase what the mindset has been when it has been there for decades!

Jammu and Kashmir or J & K has always had a troubled and flawed sort of starting up since the divide!
and i think at the time of independence the ministers were willing to do just abt anything to bring Kashmir to either of the two countries

and somehow when India won, there were repercussions; which i think wud have been there even if Pakistan had taken it... there have been wars for it and they r still going on in some form or another

what the bad thing is: is the delay that was made
the article shud have already been abolished long before, after been looked at by the wining governments them
and they didn't

its all the years of oppression of not feeling as an integral part of one country; liking what the other has to offer... not realizing the starting of war and the terror has never been from this side.

now that the article has been revoked, the people feel as if something that was safe-guarding them and something that they have grown up with has been taken from them
that there is such unrest

but they r part of the country
A part we have longed to be always ours atleast i have

but i don't spend my waking hours thinking about their unrest, and the news of them not having internet connections for 93 days doesn't bother me as it should!

i think we wanted them and now we have them so we aren't bothered for them...
but we'll only deserve them if we stand by them and think for them!

are we ready to deserve them??

The Drawing End of a Year

 It's another year; come and soon to be gone. not to be black mirror-ish but something very sinisterly fabricated all of this feels. (i just finished binge-watching the show) the way most of us feel the same thing, and then it's just its articulation on social media that manifests it and it comes true.  I read this the other day on Twitter that 'this Monday felt the most Monday-ish' and then when I thought about it did indeed feel that way. as if the feeling had just been evoked and come true.  like wishing on stars. does this writing have a mature feel to it? let be in on it in the comments if this is the type of content you'd want for future posts. I have recently come up with a weird problem. It's something related to covid. I had the asymptomatic type of it happen to me. my dad had it and then later I got the mild - a week loss of taste and then came Phantosmia! a repellingly disgusting disease... yes I asked god to give me a disease of sorts to help with my...

Chopsticks!!

in the pre dawning of my teenage years around age 9 or 10, I was a BIG BIG on chopsticks... acc to ye olde GOOGLE BABA  Chopsticks  are shaped pairs of equal-length sticks that have been used as kitchen and eating utensils in virtually all of East Asia for over four millennia. NOW, since I am a resident of South Asia and the period was pre-tech in my hands. I found about these sticks in this restaurant our family used to go to called 'HongKong' (I knoW) anyways!! this is also where I learned about Chinese Zodiac signs (I am a Rabbit) sOO I dont really remember how I came upon them because the common cutlery they used to have in this private section we used to go to was fork and spoon... but maybe it as my dad using these sticks one outing that made me want to try and learn the art... and after that, I used to ask someone to tell the waiter to get me chopsticks (cuz me shy!) and then I used to take my time with them being the still eating person with everyone waiting ...

How to Walk!!

As someone who recently became a 20-year old (yay me!!) you wud expect me to know this but noooo!! like all things in life like standing and sitting or eating... walking is also something i dont know how to do!!  while coming up for the idea of this blog I searched it on WikiHow!! and here is what i found: i mean!!!!! i just stomp my feet on the ground and hope for the best! but this is some hard core shit! also this is not just it; its also the question of: do you walk as a zig-zagging pattern? do you randomly keep your feet near one another and tread onwards? also when you see a random pattern on the ground do u follow it? also what are the hands supposed to do in this scenario? are they supposed to be: at ur side stuck swinging side by side as you go clasped at the back i mean the ways are endless!! also where are you supposed to look? on the ground or in front?? till here i think i have delved my self further into the I-don't-know-how-to-...
