The Conundrum Called Love

Love is just inexplicable! . If not, why do you think people continue to fall into it's trappings and repeatedly return to be served a dessert of dissapointments? . Why does it imprison and render the most intelligent 'dumbstruck'? . Why are its victims blinded and euphorically transported to 'alternate realities' where anything seems possible and they end up sacrificing anything and everything inexplicably?   . No, to say love is overrated is to 'underate' this formidable persona at one's own peril. For it savors to attack the ones who underate it. . Like I once was, and now, I am its prisoner! .

The Writers

Pen in hand We stare At these blank pages of life That continuously flip by So I say to you and I Write a wonderful story For we know not Which page is the last Write with zeal and determination And do not be afraid To be brave is to stare into Fear's eyes For Fear's Achilles is to be faced Write each moment gloriously Like a final battle That wins the war Even if it be your last.

Press Release from Animalia on the Recent Mysterious Disappearance of Some Monetary Instruments in Niger-Area

"Our attention has been drawn to the brazen and shameless attempt to accuse we the members of the animal kingdom, of masterminding recents heists across the span and breadth of the Niger-area. . We are hereby categorically and emphatically denouncing such and demand an immediate retraction of all such falsities being propagated. . It is disturbing that despite our collective acquiescence to provide humans with all the necessary support for them to thrive even at the expense of our endangerment, we are still being targeted in a systematically covert putsch, seeking to dislodge our great leaders Their 'Highnesses' Sirs Lion and Elephant. . Let it be known that we will not succumb to any form of blackmail or attempt at whitewashing, when we know that the grass is not greener on the other side. Not all roses are red but since sunflowers are yellow, then the sky should be blue. Sorry, I digress. . So as I was saying,  we will not take it lying low,  for this is a matter...

Letter to the Soon To Be Incarcerated Brothers

Dear Soon-to-be-fellow-prisoner Masha-Allah! We are going to get another fellow behind the bars of matrimony. You will soon find out that this prison is sweet. This testimony is coming from a 'lifer' who's clocking ten this November! It seems like there's always apprehension on their part when the 'shaving is close to the forehead'... They wonder whether the stay will be endurable. Well I guess it depends on how far the fellow's ready to go to make things comfy. As a life prisoner you get to accept that you're not gonna be released because once you're captured in the net of love, your 'sin' demands that you be sentenced to the gallows of love. But many are lucky to escape 'death' and their sentence is commuted to a life of matrimonial service. So as you prepare to enter, remember that your Warder sacrificed everything to be with you in the prison. She was your defense counsel in the court of Cupid and she did everything short of d...

A Few Words on the Quest for Meaning

Once a person becomes self-conscious the basic and underlying issue that comes to the fore is to seek for meaning in their life. Whether it be as individuals or as a part of a group, we all seek to know the answer to the question: Who am I? The Self asks this question and it comes to define the rest of the self-conscious human's pursuits for the rest of their life - for it is what defines and spurs thought and action as well as the legacy they leave behind. So to all who are traveling on this same journey - though of differing paths - I say: trudge on! -Seek answers and ask the difficult questions? -Hold thyself to lofty ideals and standards. -Push your limits to rub shoulders with the giants, and -Keep the fiery zeal for learning always burning within your ribs. For knowledge, leads you to 'home'. Haidarwali 201802072127hrs
