THE LEAKING ROOF

Hello friends I am back and I know it has been quiet a while since I posted my last article on my blog and there are like a gazillion reasons for it. But honestly mujhe kuch mil hi nahi raha tha thats why and I don't know weather the heading has any relevance with this article too

I feel there are so many things in life that you carve for. So much so that you are ready to do anything to get it. You think you want those things as if your life depends on them. For me it may be my dream company TCS or a galaxy tab phone or MBA from a certain college. But as they say not all things are under your control. I feel that in correcting the things that has gone bad and the process of trying to find an effective remedy to it takes you so very far away from yourself. This thing makes you somewhat weak and then there occurs uncertainty and doubts on our decisions. At this time our very own self comes to our rescue, the real you.

This is where the title “the leaking roof” spells its meaning out.

(funda zada ho gaya na!!!) frankly its an attempt to explain you how I felt few days back. I didn't get a particular type of job in an event in my college which I needed and I was carving for it big time.

But instead I ended up doing an altogether different thing. My childhood love and in due course of time I almost forgot that it’s a thing i love most. If it wasn't supposed to happen this way then I could have missed the chance to play a very significant role in creating something so beautiful, amazing and artistic like the ETHOS hanging and Audi-backdrop. I enjoyed doing it very much and I felt exactly how I use to feel when I was a 12 yr old doing drawing and painting in my beloved school. Playing with colors and creating my imagination.

You know no matter how hard you try to cover your cracks to stop the leaks, it will eventually leak. Meaning no matter how hard you try to run away from your true self the ultimate sense of achievement and fulfillment comes when you try finding the ways back to your self. We try become new and project ourselves differently but the best part of you lies within yourself and that path, although difficult to track but not impossible.

Remember, your true self will some how leak through your sham crack and it will eventually triumph.

If you ask me, I don’t mind having such a leak…..coz it helped me to have romance with my forgotten first love once again…..and that too in a very grand and colorful way and got appreciation for it too……imagine!!!

Special thanks to ETHOS-11 “decoration and hanging committee” for including me and accommodating my views and opinion to create something so amazing……
