"And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight within a bud, was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." ~Anais Nin "Another day has come and gone. Will you waste the night also? You are chained to this world by desires, actions and manifold anxieties. You do not know that your life is slowly decaying, that it is being wasted. Therefore, wake up! Wake up!" ~ Sri Swami Sivananda "Live your questions now, and perhaps even without knowing it, you will live along some distant day into your answers." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke "I would like to be everyone, a cripple, a dying man, a , and then come back to write about my thoughts, my emotions, as that person." ~ Sylvia Plath I'm a great believer in personal growth, which means that one should not spend day after day standing on the same spot in life watching the rest of the world live whilst you merely exist. Been there, done that, donated that t-shirt to charity. As a result of the anti-stagnancy stance I've taken, I'm heavily into trying new things. I won't go as far as to start preaching YOLO, but I'd rather reach the end of my life regretting the things I have done, as opposed to the things I haven't. So if Prince Charming turns out to be a frog, mainly because he's decided that my gl slippers look better on him than me; oh well (insert shrug), chalk it down to experience and move on. One day pretty soon it'll make a very funny story. I'm also a great believer in laughing at yourself; actually I'm a great believer in laughing in general. I have a somewhat whacky and unconventional sense of humour. Ask me my favourite joke sometime. You will either laugh with me or boo me off stage. Words!!!! Make my world go round, whether they come from others, or from the random conversations that go on inside my head. I am a word person. Which is also why I decided to become an "experience" person. It is more than possible to talk a thing to death. Where's the fun in describing ice-cream? I do feel that I've tended to blab here, a habit I have yet to shake :/ If there is anything more you would like to know, you know where to find me.
