Meeting Inspiration

People.
Human beings.
We are social animals.
And by that, I don't wish to take the discussion to idealistic direction like our well-known orator Simon Sinek, but rather a different place.
Being in a social environment gives us the opportunity to interact with many people. Some of them being different and astonishing.
And communicating with other social beings may sometimes inspire us in various ways (well at least those who seek inspiration or are able to see the same in anything).

It was until recently that I met someone and realized the above.
I was visiting my friend one day at his college.
I was happy to see him after 4 years. We chatted and then planned to roam around the city a little. It was then when we stumbled upon this short roadside event. It was a group of people/students who were performing a play. It's called Nukkad-Natak locally.
I and my friend were just enjoying the funny play. But there he was, the third guy, a friend of my friend, who sat quietly during the whole thing. Not even laughing. Because he was not looking at that play to just enjoy. He was more onto the message it was conveying.

It was then that I started interacting with him, after the play of course.
He studied at a renowned university of India. IIT BHU.
He was a student of mechanical engineering and yet he had great knowledge of Machine Learning and also Data Analytics. Something one can not expect from a mechanical engineer.
Not only that. He was event manager in various fests and surprisingly enough he was socially active too. Not to mention he had also been the student body president.

Impressed as hell I was.
And not only impressed, but also amazed and inspired from all he was and what all he managed in a short timespan.
Thinking of him inspires me.
It can inspire everyone. We all come from no-where, to be somewhere. And if this guy can, then so can we.

Be inspired. Believe in yourself. Push yourself to your boundaries.
Because
Limits only exist in mind.

Vulnerable Guising Fool

You might have met some people who behave in a stupid way even when they meet you the first time. And obviously people are not much comfortable in seeing them in future because lets face it, no one is attracted to guys who become weirdly stupid when they should put on their best to try and impress the crowd near them. But here's the catch. It's not always that people put on their STUPID mask to be weird in front of others. There's a difference in being a fool and being vulnerable. And there's a reason for their vulnerability. It's because they want to make the atmosphere a less restricted and fortified, in other words, to make others open. Because that's the key. It's only then when the people open up and share their feelings and thoughts. To make the people around much comfortable and frank in the conversation that may come up. But clearly, "normal" people are not able to make out the difference between the ongoing vulnerability an

Pigeons

Amidst this ever-changing weather, they are the only ones who keep coming back. Wanted to get rid of them eventually but they have become a part of our life which has stuck over the years when many left and lost touch. Their presence is no longer a pain. They feel familiar. As usual, they have found a place in our house for themselves to hammer their tents and continue the cycle of life. The same spot at which they always strive to make a nest. They will breed the new ones and the children will grow up and eventually fly away. Leading their own lives, forgetting the hand that fed them. They will then join the finite marathon of life. It’s this very strange behaviour that perplexes me. Most of the animals have a lifelong intertwined sense of family and attachment. But they seem to follow some different concept of life. They are different than the most. I wonder if their petit body accommodates’s a heart inside! Maybe it does. Maybe that’s why they have a
