Big
This terrible world we live in, is beautiful.
Miracles are all around us. We are miracles. What else do we need to believe?
- It’ll take a second for the next big bang to wipe our existence, and yet every morning the sun colors the sky in hues of orange, yellow and blue. Every morning the world wakes up, and somehow, we all live. The sky turns orange everyday as birds chirp, and leaves rustle. And then it turns yellow as we breathe, and feel. And then the blues change, as we make choices to live out our story.
- Darkness is an inevitable part of light. Day in and day out, we lose faith and belief, and yet we never lose hope. Even when we are broken into a thousand and one shattered pieces, we still hold onto the tiniest sliver of hope that it will be better someday. Everything seems to go wrong, but we never do. The cosmic stars that made us always fall apart, but they never cease to fall apart forever.
- We are made of stars and comets and light. Our fingers are the shooting stars that were wished upon hundreds of years ago, and our eyes are cosmic dust that we think is beautiful. We are all different, for the stars in our body and the light in our hearts is not from one single galaxy. We are made up of millions of galaxies. And just like them, we are beautiful too.
- We can love. Among billions of souls that roam on this planet, we always find the lost pieces of the puzzle that we are. Friends, families or soul mates, we fit into their story and they fit into ours. We are all love stories, and poems that rhyme in no decided manner. We are infinities, and we don’t really care if ours is bigger or smaller. We are all the stories that overlap and we are the pen.
- We have flowers, stars, and beings so far beyond us that all they know is love. We have sunsets, and mountains that shout back our names. We have fragrances that awakens our desires, and we have each other. We have colors. We have feelings, and we have hearts.
- It’ll take a second for the next big bang to wipe our existence, and yet every night the moon shines bright enough to let us shine too. The sky turns black with white spots that are just us waiting to be born again, a thousand years from now.
I know it’s terrible. But it’s beautiful too, all you have to do is find the perfect place for you.

My Spirals 
Each one of us, is a paradox, of doubt and belief, of cynicism and hope. How strange that we can be both, without being alarmed with ourselves? The human mind was created to repel discontent, and seek satisfaction. We are created to be happy. Why do we sometimes fall into a deep space of loss and doubt, I’m really not sure. It sometimes feels like a battle of something egoic, and something divine within each one of us. For these moments of elatedness you describe, for me, always emerge out of a deep sense of loss and sadness. It’s a consolation, I feel, a comforting. I like to think of it as little messages of the divine, an affectionate protective hand, resting on my head, just when I’m about to disappear in my tears. I know there is a scientific explanation too, some release of chemicals when our mind is in a state of powerful grief. Isn’t it ironic that the anxieties and fears created by the mind, are healed, again, by the mind. We are the source of our ailments and our salvation. We have the capacity to be happy, only because we have the capacity to suffer.

It has to do with self-esteem, a Uranus going into Taurus thing.
