Just Let Them - A poem by Cassie Phillips

If they want to choose something or someone over you, let them. 

If they want to go weeks without talking to you, let them. 

If they are okay with never seeing you, let them. 

If they are okay with always putting themselves first, let them.

If they are showing you who they are and not what you perceive them to be, let them.

If they want to follow the crowd, let them.

If they want to judge or misunderstand you, let them.

If they act like they can live without you, let them.

If they want to walk out of your life and leave, pull the door open and let them.

Let them lose you. You were never theirs because you were always your own, so let them.

Let them show you who they truly are, not tell you.

Let them prove how worthy they are of your time.

Let them make the necessary steps to be a part of your life.

Let them earn your forgiveness.

Let them call you to talk about ordinary things.

Let them take you out on a Thursday.

Let them talk about anything and everything just because it's you they are talking to.

Let them have a safe place in you.

Let them see the heart in you that didn't harden.

Let them love you.

Random Observations

Being emotionally intelligent is a curse because you can never truly hate someone. You'll always think there must be a reason they are the way they are.

Couplets - Close to my heart

Chalo Ek baar Phir Ajnabi Ban Jaaye Hum Dono -  By Sahir Ludhianvi

vo afsaana jise anjaam tak laana na ho mumkin,
use ik khoob-soorat mod de kar chhodna achha. 
chalo ek baar phir ajnabi ban jaaye hum dono

Koi Dost Hai Na Raqeeb Hai - By Rana Sahri

Koi dost hai, na raqeeb hai,
tera sehar kitna ajeeb hai....

Woh jo ishq tha, woh junoon tha,
yeh jo hijre hai, yeh naseeb hai.........

Yahan kiska chehra padha karoon,
yahan kaun itna kareeb hai....

Main kise kahoon mere saath chal,
yahan sab ke sar pe saleeb hai....

Tujhe dekh kar main hun sochta,
Tu habib hai, ya raqeeb hai........

Aaj Ke Daur Mein Ae Dost Ye Manzar Kyun Hai - By Sudarshan Fakir

 Aaj Ke Daur Mein Ae Dost Ye Manjhar Kyoon Hai, 
Zakhm Har Sar Pe Har Ik Haath Mein Paththar Kyoon Hai. 

Jab Haqeeqat Hai Ke Har Zarre Mein Tu Rehta Hai, 
Fir Zamin Par Kahin Masjid Kahin Mandir Kyoon Hai

Apna Anjaam To Maaloom Hai Sabko 
Phir Bhi Apnee Nazron Mein Har Insaan Sikandar Kyoon Hai 

Zindagi Jeene Ke Qaabil Hi Nahin Ab "faakir" 
Warna Har Aankh Mein Ashkon Ka Samandar Kyoon Hai 

Bebasi Jurm Hai Hausla Jurm Hai - By Ayaz Jhansvi

bebasi jurm hai hausla jurm hai
zindagi teri ek ek ada jurm hai

ae sanam tere baare me kuch soch kar
apne baare me kuch sochna jurm hai

yaad rakhna tujhe mera ek jurm tha
bhul jaana tujhe dusra jurm hai

kya sitam hai ki tere haseen sehar me
har taraf gaur se dekhna jurm hai
bebasi jurm hai hausla jurm hai

Zindagi Se Badi Saza Hi Nahin - By Krishan Bihari Noor

Zindagi se badi saza hi nahin
Aur kya jurm hai pata hi nahi
Zindagi se badi saza hi nahin

Itne hisso mein baat gaya hoon main
Mere hisse mein kuch bacha hi nahi
Zindagi se badi saza hi nahin

Sach ghate ya badey to sach na rahey
Jhooth ki koi intehaa hi nahi

Jad do chaandi mein chahe sone mein
Aaiana jhooth bolta hi nahi
Zindagi se badi saza hi nahin

Meaning of Life

"Meaning of Life" The meaning of life is one of the most profound and elusive questions that we humans have ever asked. There is no definitive answer to this question, as different people may have different views and beliefs about the purpose and value of their existence. However, some possible ways to approach this question are:-

Religious perspective: Some people may believe that the meaning of life is to follow the will of God or a higher power, and to fulfill their destiny and role in the divine plan. They may also believe that the meaning of life is to achieve salvation or enlightenment, and to enjoy the rewards or avoid the punishments in the afterlife.-

Philosophical perspective: Some people may believe that the meaning of life is to find happiness and satisfaction in oneself and in one's relationships with others. They may also believe that the meaning of life is to pursue wisdom and knowledge, and to contribute to the common good of humanity and the world.-

Scientific perspective: Some people may believe that the meaning of life is to understand the nature and origin of life and the universe, and to discover the laws and principles that govern them. They may also believe that the meaning of life is to explore and innovate, and to create new possibilities and solutions for the challenges and problems that face humanity and the world.-

Personal perspective: Some people may believe that the meaning of life is to express oneself and one's talents and passions, and to achieve one's goals and dreams. They may also believe that the meaning of life is to enjoy and appreciate the beauty and diversity of life and the world, and to experience joy and love.

Ultimately, the meaning of life is a subjective and individual matter, as each person may have their own way of finding and creating meaning in their life. The meaning of life may also change over time, as one's circumstances, experiences, and perspectives may evolve. Therefore, the meaning of life is not a fixed or universal concept, but a dynamic and personal one.

Udaan


The more i grow into the life, the more i realize that people absolutely have no idea what are they doing with their lives. Everyone around looks startled, amazed and lost, like a poor sheep who has no idea where he should lead its path. Everyone around has the same question, but none has the answer. How we have reached this stage of conundrum ? This stage of bleak confusion ? Why are we lost ? Why are we not able to find the answers we are looking for ? Where did things go wrong? Why don’t we have a clear vision of our paths, our journey ? Why we are not clear about our own emotions, our thoughts, and about our own selves. The answer might partially lie in the lost days, in our evolution, in our grooming, which essentially governs the way our mind processes the thoughts.
