pathak's journey

Few days back, I recieved a notification that I have completed a whole year here! And all the memories slapped me that how I was so adamant and impulsively made a decision of starting my own page here at this platform.

I still remember, I was at my lowest, hitting rock bottom every day!
Honestly, Ihad no idea I will stick to that one thing that’s dear to me for so long, I’ve been a person of switching interests, be it a thing or interest!
But writing has been my cartridge for the very long time.
Although, I have been on and off for a while
Making promises and not sticking to them, just like that, that’s when I whine about adulting that how at one point we crave for it and then at next stop,we just throw it away.

As most of you are aware that reading holds a special place in my heart and I am clinged to that. My days and hours have been insinuating me a lot to get back to my roots and trust me when I say this, I have tried alot, but in vain.
And in between all of this, what I noticed that – sometimes in life, many plans are going to back fire and it’s no harm in there. It is okay not to carry your interest, your good self and your best behaviour on top all the time.
A small break never hurts nobody. It has its charm. But here a twist, we should not give in all, no matter how invigorating it feels. And just like that, I got back without jeopardizing much! I clinged to my things, which gave me homely atmosphere and reading and taking shots of every tiny things made their ways again.
This present week has shown me things and one of them was that sometimes it’s okay to deracinate your roots and place them somewhere and start again.
And this one thing I read in the novel “DHARMA” that I can relate to it so much that it has to here.
” I’ve learned the art of listening from you. After a lifetime of interrupting”

When I was a kid and even now, my father has always told me,” beta seekhne ki koi Umar nahi hoti hai, aur seekha hua kabhi vyarth nahi jata hai kabhi, pata nahi kab kaha kaam aajaye wo seekh” (there’s no age of learning, and it never goes waste, you never know when that lesson can be of help) and guess what here I am, learning form my mistakes, from my environment and from small things to grow and glow and learn!
