4 things I learnt during my ten-year old journey

Hey guys! Now this is a really thoughtful letter I wanna share with you.

There are hardly 5 more days left for me to turn 11. Here is a list of the do's and don't's  I learnt in the ten years of my life-

1) Place your priorities above anything else (except yourself)
Always try to shave off bits of time to spend on your passion, talent or developing your inner self. 
That doesn't mean shoving off important work. One has to spend at least an hour or two on oneself.
My leisure time consists of writing my online diary, sketching, writing poems, working on my singing skills, listening to TED talks,etc. Managing time ineffectively can bring horrible consequences including being grounded for months together.



2) Don't ever mess with your little' sis or bro
  I'm serious about this. NEVER have strains in your current relationship with your younger sibling.
    A younger sibling always come handy as an agent when you want to conceal your crime.
   When you're in trouble and need someone to flatter to and get the work done, a toady younger             sibling is exactly what you'll want. Trust me, this really works. Especially when the pest is                   troublesome. The perfect comrade.



3) Try to lie much better with natural expressions
   Usually, I'm not that good at lying. I either stammer, sweat or look into the other person's eyes too much. It's always better to learn and have considerate amount of tricks and tips up your sleeve. I'm still a novice as I haven't got much experience doing this. These skills will come in handy later in life. That's much better than embarrassing yourself or spoiling the relationship with a closed one. Much better.


4) There is no such thing called God 
  According to me, there is NO God. Whenever I say this, people ask me,"If so, how do you think Earth was created?". For my scientists out there, how nonsensical does this sound? Science clearly states that planets are formed from nebulae. I believe that there is an eternal power that controls everything. Many people believe that the lifetime of every person is already planned before the person is born. That is not true. It's just the chain reaction of every person's action or just a coincidence.

Turning Terrific Twelve!

Hi guys! I have crossed yet another milestone! Today, I'm turning twelve! From the time I was in my mother's womb till this very moment, these twelve years have been absolutely exciting and adventurous. The experiences I've had have taught me life's greatest lessons that will always be in my pocket throughout my journey. Turning twelve is often viewed as one of the biggest milestones in a person's life (stepping into tweenhood and much closer to teenage) as it is the last birthday one celebrates as a child and also the first one feeling like a tiny adult! Though I like thinking and planning ahead like an adult would, I still feel, learn and create with the heart of a nine-year-old perhaps. The innocence and creativity of a kid is always greater than the arrogant know-it-all attitude of a teen or adult. I definitely do feel much more matured by thought and response today. I have evolved as a person. Hitting twelve, I suddenly feel so grown up (alm

Baby footprints on time

Hello readers! Here's some really exciting and heartwarming news - Fledgling is turning one! No matter how many things we have done or achieved, those 'first-times' always capture a special place in our hearts. That first-time element is what drove me to write this thoughtful letter to my soul. This post marks one of my most emotional moments, hitting a new milestone with my most cherished partner in this journey, my dear Fledgling. It's been a year since we hatched open, taking a first glimpse of the outside world as soft sunshine peeked in at dawn. Now, before we knew it, we had started flying across the cliffs! It has been an amazing roller-coaster ride this year, definitely not one without potholes and bumps. But the thrill of turning one with something I hadn't even considered urges me to write more and more, as thoughts and feelings gush through. This journey has been a passionate one and we have also remarkably improved over the months of over

Simplicity of truth

Hello everyone! Do you believe in miracles? Well, I didn't until last week. So read on to know my story. Just a couple of days ago, I had my first book fair experience and unexpectedly bumped into some of my favorite authors and orators. My eyes scanned every stall for the novels I had listed the day before and for the posters I had wanted for my bedroom. I did manage to get my hands on a couple of novels at Penguin and many other publications but only after a few hours did the magic happen! Notionpress' contest rush notice somehow caught my eye and I instinctively walked in to enquire on that. That's when I met my now-mentor Ms. Meera Barath, the mind behind Mayaakatha, an engrossing collage of thought bubbles. I had no idea she was an author, so I walked up to her and told her that I was searching for a new writer to explore and whether she could help me find some. That's when she took me to the stand where several copies of Mayaakatha were placed. S
