Taking a Break

I've decided to take a break instead of quitting. I still want to do all those things and give my dreams a real shot. I also want to do it my way. So I will let my vices consume me. Although I tell myself that I will do this and that even tomorrow onwards, I wouldn't be surprised if I fail miserably. I'm not myself under influence.

Changing The World

Faith in God is by far one of the most useful things for a majority of people in today's world. Religions have gotten countless many out of some really dark times. Clearly, having survived for millenniums, it provides some utility to enough of us. I've felt the liberating experience myself. When I was young, I felt nothing really mattered. With the lack of any real system of values, I was exposed to the popular culture of the 2000s which revolved around atheism & liberty.  My parents were born Hindu but chose to distance themselves from the temples that disillusioned them. Instead, they found peace in Nichiren Daishonen's Buddhism. They would chant & send me to a meeting here & there, but it never really stuck & they chose not to further impose it on me. I started to lean toward Dale Carnegie, Stephen Covey & the like. Americans greatly influenced me as I grew up watching all their media, from Smosh & Ryan Higa on YouTube to Jim Carrey & Tom Crui...

Why I write

There are many days, especially when I try to create for any number of days in a row, where I clearly don't know what I want to talk about. Looking back, anyone can find that on those days, I just end up reminding myself why I started. Like a broken record on repeat, I tell myself about the greats, how they all had personal journals, & that if I keep creating every day, I'll eventually get better at it. So why beat around the bush? This is one of those days, so let's embrace this concept! I really do love having something to do. "An idle mind is the devil's playground." comes to mind. Recently, I've been learning the meaning of inner work. I've been unraveling my thoughts & motivation, bringing my fractured parts closer together. I won't go off on a tangent here about mending & healing, but I have been genuinely questioning my motivations simply for understanding's sake. Sure, there is a crushing sense of terror in my heart of heart...

Dream Manifesto

Are Dreams Useless? I doubt I'm the only one with big dreams. I reckon almost everyone had something grand in their lives that they wanted to achieve. For me, it's becoming a great storyteller; for others, it might be making money, settling down in a lounge, or nurturing a beautiful, loving family. What keeps us from achieving these things? Sure, every journey is different, but I think there might be something that ties all the broken, abandoned, and unfulfilled dreams of ours together.  I'll start with me. The best stories I have come across have given me a reason to live. They made me feel when I was numb, and showed me a whole new universe where I saw pitch-black darkness before. On the one hand, I want to do this because I want to carry on the sacred tradition of myth-making. On the other hand, I definitely enjoyed experiencing stories more than most other things, perhaps it will be the same as an author? All it took was a few hours and a computer screen to rid me of th...
