The Tale of 2 Yellow Boards- One read something and the other read the same thing. But….

Two sentences, intending the same but in two different ways. Ironically, I saw these 2 yellow boards at one place, kept at a decent distance from each other.  When I read “We are working to make things better.” it affirmed me that they are working to make things better which made me believe that they are into … Read more

You’re beautiful! It’s True :)

You are not your age, Nor the size of clothes you wear, You are not a weight, Or the colour of your hair. You are not your name, Or the dimples in your cheeks, You are all the books you read, And all the words you speak. You are your croaky morning voice, And the smiles you try to hide, You’re the sweetness in your laughter, And every tear you’ve cried. You’re the songs you sing so loudly, When you know you’re all alone, You’re the places that you’ve been to, And the one that you call home. You’re the things that you believe in, And the people that you love, You’re the photos in your bedroom, And the future you dream of. You’re made of so much beauty, But it seems that you forgot, When you decided that you were defined, By all the things you’re not.

:) I couldn’t  stop smiling and sharing these beautiful lines. We are so busy at times pleasing the misconception of the society or oneself about the beauty that we don’t realize it’s all within. There were times I have felt low for the weight I weigh, may be for the color of my skin or my … Read more
