Life Experiences by Tilak

It's dark and cold The blankets keep me warm The mind plays the shadows of light and dark With the memories of the dark cold caves lived many births before I can see the sun shy away Like a moody cancerian having one of his crabby days The moon is lurking quietly behind in the sky Waiting for the Sun to make way I suddenly come back to the present Reminded of the craving inside me I diagnose as my tea thirst I wake up and drink my tea quietly Munching biscuits dipped in the cup I head to the hall and clumsily look for the TV remote Surf through #Netflix looking for some relief for my wandering mind I'm engaged for a few hours And then the restlessness returns My mind wanders back to the old cold caves Where I remember huddling with my half tamed pets - the wolves I use to hunt My digestive juices begin to flow I head to the kitchen and switch on the microwave to feast on the leftovers of a late lunch I'm full and sleepy again My senses are dulled into f...

Sometimes I feel it is better to proactively look for enemies People who will hurt you People who will torture your soul People who will tear you down And if amongst them, you find some one different, someone who doesn't want to hurt you but is tired of this cycle of hate and hatred It may pleasantly surprise you And you may suddenly realise that Someone you thought as enemy is your friend Trust me friends it is always better this way Better than looking for friends and ending up making enemies who sweetly stab you behind your back This new year, therefore, actively look for enemies for life Who knows you might find a friend forever Happy 2019 in anticipation

Sometimes the world is a bitch Everyone seems to conspire against you The wind, the sun, the moon the earth Even your own heart and mind gives up on you But take a deep breath and hold on Don't give up on the little plank of hope you are holding on to It will see you through The sun will smile again The breeze will cool you down again The moon will seduce once again with its waxing and waning The mind will come around and kiss you with the joys you have been through The heart will overwhelm you with passion and joy But I still maintain that life is a bitch It tempts you with pleasures that cause you pain Leaving you in the whirlpool of emotions that's too difficult for the tiny plank of hope to deal with But don't worry the tiny plank of hope is magical It can hold your weight and the weight of your troubles Through all the turbulence around You have been strong and you have won Both feeding your heart and the mind Your time will come soon The waves of ...

There must be a reason why we call liquor spirits What I feel is that liquor is like a torchlight It lights up the inner lacunae in your minds Taking you to labyrinths you don't remember existed in this life Almost feeling like you have gone back in time To a life where you were someone else With someone else sharing a whole different world Sometimes that feeling brings back spirits in your life from lives you thought never existed Brings memories and visions you felt don't exist but they come alive Like magic People come closer move further depending on the chemistry inside the brain The liquor induced hallucinations make you see things you want to see and may be you don't Cook up desires you refuse to acknowledge or confront Brings you a sense of peace you thought possible only on heaven or awaken the demons from the secret chambers in your mind Face it. Live it. Forget it. Remember it. Just drink the cups and feel the nirvana Hear the voice of your subcon...

I have always respected the military. I love the soldiers who sacrifice their lives for the country. This movie is a tribute to those great souls who achieve greats feats at the cost of their lives and then just fade away. The film is about a young girl who chooses to become a spy as she puts the safety of the country before everything else. Gets married to the son of a senior military officer from Pakistan. And spies secrets out of her in-laws place. She risks her life every moment, becomes a murderer and still manages to share information that saves the country. A beautiful film by Meghna Gulzar. Aaliya Bhat rocks and all the other actors make this film so real. A big congratulations to the team Raazi. Jai Hind.

It is true that nothing is real. Everything that we perceive as real is just what we perceive through the signals received from our five senses. That is reality for us. It is so easy to tweak those impulses and it changes our reality. It can change our thoughts, our feelings and over a period of time - us. The movie is about that. The reality through the eyes of an ACP who is madly in love with his wife and finds time inspite of his hectic schedule to indulge with her poetry and her. It's a beautiful feeling till a few murders rock the boat. Then when he calls his wife one day hears someone else. Someone whom he considers as the killer. And then, his fight begins and he eventually loses his grip on the case and himself....only to rediscover his true self. Brilliant brilliant thriller. A must watch. So glad I could see it. A big thank you to the entire team of vodka diaries for making such a beautiful movie.
