Sharing this post “Hey whatever!” with #WriteTribeProBlogger challenge, inspired by the prompt, which asks to put my music player on shuffle, and write a post inspired by the song that plays.
Hey whatever!
At times, darkness creeps upon me so suddenly that I can’t shake it off easily. There’s light around me, but I can’t seem to see it. It’s been such a phase of late. Then the shuffle of my playlist songs got this one… and I realize, I can’t control the universe. That’s so true. What has to happen will happen. If it’s good, then I go with it. If I fall, I’ve to just get back up and keep trying. No use making my present colorless, and feeling the world around is ugly. Here’s hoping the days ahead are better…

Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
Yes, life’s charade comes and goes. No point dwelling on the past or thinking what the future might be. Make the most out of our present. A wonderful music to help us realize this. Good one, Vinay!
I hope so, yes. No point dwelling on things, but at times, difficult not to. It’s a wonderful song for sure. Thank you, Sreedeep. 🙂
Aww… It would definitely be better, V. After all, we are meeting in a month! ? Cheer up! And that’s a beautiful song. The title is so catchy.

Yep. Hope it would be better, T.
Happens to the best of us! If u can be honest then at the moment I’m in a similar phase!
Let’s hope that things get better!
Yeah. Hope so too, Z. For you and for me…
There’s definitely better days ahead. Just keep looking for the life. And Westlife is one band I loved so much. My phone was literally full of their songs.

My phone still is full of their songs, SSJ. 🙂 They were a wonderful band. Hope better days ahead, that’s for sure.
Not dumb but wise thoughts you have put up here.
When good comes in our way, should be grateful for those days
and when when something goes bad…take the fall but rise back from the ashes..that’s what a fighter does 🙂 Do not let anyone affect you.
It’s not easy to not be affected by some things, Keerthi. But it needs to be shaken off soon, that’s all. Thank you for the thoughts. 🙂
Sometimes I wish a song could do that to me. The best it can do is shove me deeper down the ditch i’m already in.

Check. There might be, Ishi. 🙂 If you’re in a ditch, give a holler. Will throw you a rope, or come give you company in the ditch. 😛 😉
Times will be better, just stay positive and hope for the best!

Yes. That needs to be remembered, Aesha. Hope so. 🙂
That’s a good approach to live in the present and not worry too much about the future. A lot less stressful too?

Yes. A lot less stressful, I agree. Not always easy to implement though, Raji. 🙂
Going with the flow is the best option as you cannot control how and where the chips will fall!! Nice selection of song Vinay!

Yeah. Need to see and react, that’s the only way forward. Thank you, Shalini Baisiwala. 🙂
Perfect song. Good thought !

Thanks, Prats.
They are definitely getting better, my friend 🙂
I hope so too, Ashwini. 🙂 Thanks.
I know you haven’t been keeping too well lately but it’s only a phase and will pass soon. Good to see you taking a positive take on it. And you have Dehradun to look forward to!
Yes. I hope this uncertainty is just a phase as well, Mahak. It’s a bit hard to handle at times.
