Your Hypothetical Me - Reveda Bhatt

Who am I? Reveda

Well, you knew that.

But seriously, if you think you know who I am, just read forward and believe me, in the end, you wouldn’t be sure.

Okay, let’s talk about the ME in your perspective.


To those who think I am very sweet and all that, see, you’ve never seen my darker side.

To those who think I am the one who always wilts the corner of her lip, being sad, well, maybe you didn’t give me a chance to smile.

To those who think I’m the obedient one, sorry but you’ve not seen my mischiefs.

To those who think I’m as hard as a rock, maybe you’ve never seen me break down.


So, all I am saying is DON’T CREATE AN OPINION ABOUT ME because I’m not the bird who’ll be happy and fulfilling in that particular cage of yours, I am the one which flies high in the limitless sky owing no boundaries. Either way, if I come out of that cage, which I will, it’ll hurt you and make you think, reframing-believe, that what you knew was only a bit of my soul. Please know that if I’m acting distinctly with you than before, it’s not because of the change in my nature but because of the change in yours. Maybe there’s something in you that made me change, change as in care a little less or not care at all. 


If you don’t like the way I am,

I don’t give a damn.

If I like myself,

You are no one in the heck to change me,

In fact, you can’t even try to.


If you like the way I am,

Please stop yourself from that,

Because when I change my colour, I don’t want anyone to tell me that it was better before.


It’s my life, so if you want to come into it in the dark, keep in mind that the torch is in my hand and you are nobody to turn it around or switch it off!

The Story of A Spider - Diva Gupta

Greetings! Oh! I didn’t mean to scare you! I am a spider. I move from house to house, trying to build my web in a fixed location but these humans obliterate me. They wreck my home every time! 

I made a beautiful web once, attractive enough to win an a award. But then this human came and swiped it away with a broom like it was nothing! She almost killed me as I was sitting peacefully in my silk web. I swung on my silk thread to an open window and escaped. But not everyone is so destructive and mean. 

Most people are afraid of me. They think I am disgusting and throw me away like I’m some sort of trash. But no matter what they say, I’m living too! I have feelings, just like any other living being. I don’t know why they think my appearance is scary or why they run away when they see me in my comfortable silk web

दोस्ती और परिवार - रिशोना चोपड़ा

जब हम किसी से मिलते हैं तो अनजाने में हम लोगों को हमसे दूर धकेल देते हैं, भले ही हम उन्हें लंबे समय से जानते हों। मैंने इस तरह की परिस्थितियों का सामना किया है। हम सभी को एक ऐसा दोस्त चाहिए जो हमारे लिए संपूर्ण हो और किसी का दोस्त न हो। हम अक्सर उनके पीछे भागते हैं जो हमें नहीं चाहते लेकिन उन्हें भूल जाते हैं जो हमारे साथ रहना चाहते हैं। मेरा मतलब वह दोस्त है जो हमारा दोस्त बनना चाहता है; हमारे माता-पिता और भगवान हमेशा साथ हैं, और उनके पीछे भागने वाला कोई नहीं है।

इस दुनिया में हम अजनबियों और परिवार के बाहर के लोगों को ज्यादा मानने लगते हैं और परिवार में दोस्ती की उपेक्षा करने लगते हैं।
