The Itinerant in the Himalayas

Reaching you was hell of a task and sent me into uncountable bouts of breathlessness and I swore I would never come back to you. After leaving you, I lost my appetite straight for three days, I was relieved that I will never come back for you. But memories are a bitch. Those 8 AM sunrises that started with hot hot ginger, lemon and honey water. Glad that I could not get a signal up on you, I would sit there and watch you just blow cold cold air, no matter how hot the sun shone. Shamelessly stuffed my face...

I chose Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 under the prompt "A book that is set in future", which is essentially a book about our beloved books. Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I will try talking you into reading it, while also not spoil at the same time. This is set in a distant future where a book-loving person burns books as his profession. The book discusses the joy of reading books and the protagonist's tryst with the dilemma he faces in the weird societal sanctions. The book also urges the reader to ponder about the future where the world is way too mechanised and...

So seriously, how are you?

Why don’t we care anymore about our present – even if it is mundane and uneventful?

My friends at UNITE 2030 were recently talking about how casually we treat the above question. Generally, we use it as an ice breaker, call it niceties, but how many times do we sincerely mean it? Only when you hear that I was sick and took a personal day off at work, you decide to take a genuine interest in my well-being. Know that I can still take a day off if I feel low - physical inability to work alone doesn't determine if I should take a day off. Why don't we care anymore about our present - even...

Dear Diary,

Today was a typical Sunday.

So today is Tutun Didi's birthday and seems to be a pure coincidence, but I always start something new on her life events :) Dear Diary, Today was a typical Sunday. I eventually woke up after I couldn't bear the mosquitoes biting my fingers. The weather outside is terrible - cloudy and humid. Today is also Tutun Didi's birthday so, I wished her and sent her lots of love. She is an amazing elder sister, a wonderful daughter, and a beautiful mother <3 I read the newspaper and had oats porridge for breakfast. I practiced PostGRE SQL, and they are...

Dear Love

May 21, 2019September 17, 2021

An open letter to love in my life

This is an open letter. I am taking this chance to clear up my notions about loving someone and being loved by someone. I want to be loved in a way that makes me love myself more. I want to be loved in a way that celebrates me the way I am. I want to be loved in a way as if I was some festival that I could make so many people happy with my presence. (If you take pictures, make me feel beautiful. :D) Same goes for you. If I tell you I love you, you should know...

Charminar, my Prince

May 11, 2019September 17, 2021

Charminar is not Charminar without the constant bickering of its people.

To me, Charminar is not Charminar without the constant bickering of its people who want to make their life a full circle. Shops and hawker stalls strewn across the street and electrical wires hanging loosely, one could call this a "hot mess". However, the reality is THIS stays. It doesn't go away. It is happening. It throbs with life. The Charminar is thei testimony to all those dreams that thrive on it, over generations. The Charminar may not belong to our age and must have been waay better off in the era to which it belongs, but it has accepted...

The Runaway Bride

May 9, 2019September 17, 2021

She had everything, so why did she run away?

She loved him, she wanted him, but why did she runaway? They accepted the way she was, then why did she runaway? Did she run away from him? Did she run away from the responsibilities the society exacted from her? Probably she may not have run away to quit after all. Maybe she was chasing her demons in the dark, Maybe she was running away from life altogether, Or maybe, she ran away to find herself, before it was too late.

ROOOADS

May 4, 2019September 17, 2021

There’s something about road trips.

There's something about road trips. In the beginning, you can't wait to embark on the journey and then sometime in the middle, all you wish is to stop, because the road feels never-ending and that kills you. But then that's life for you. Things like new love, new city, new people, and the journey to find them and to know them, can make you drop through valleys of disappointment and sail through oceans of hopeless love. After all isn't that what we live for? Here's a beautiful picture of a sunrise I was able to take home, when I had...

I am Bishnupriya , and you can find some more and less interesting things in here. I work in the corporate and I have enough life and time to enjoy the other side of my life. God, I love my life. This is a place where I would love to come back to smile and cry, probably after twenty years down the lane. Recall the days I had the time of my life and smile at the times I would blabber shit. So, if you want to get to know me and the world as I see, this is one...
