Behind most kind of ‘nothing’, we all have a story that was once ‘everything’. The beauty of nothingness is that we get completely submerged into it. That is what the feeling of Void is. The V in Void silently says that it encompasses the ‘we’ in it. One is not alone and there is something else with it. May be another person, expectation, object, etc, that kind of else thing.
It’s a short and quick read. It can be downloaded here: The Void.
I am attaching the contents here hoping it would call for a read! If you find it tedious and boring and felt like dropping it in the middle, Let me know! 🙂 I am in the process of learning and that is very much welcome!

“Void echoes. What did you put in?”
05.We Don’t know, What We Know!
“Is it Blue? Or Sky? Or Water? Or a Painting? Okay, let’s ask!”
06.Voids of Detachment
“The thin lines of thick happiness between attach and detach”
07.Happiness is ‘Happiness’
“Self sacrifices are soulful satisfactions! Ehh?”
08.The Drama of Dreams
“Talking about Dreams, Dreams don’t talk!”
09.Like That. A little by Little.
“Curiosity calls Curiosity”
10.It’s Not Like That!
“Like u say, like they think, like I know, like that is!”
11.Failures? What’s That?
“Failures are only a filthy people’s gossip”
12.The Thoughts That Weigh

“Can you dance to imaginary beats of time?”
16.The Life Days
“Polish for bright. Not to get blind.”
17.The Table of Merits

#11 is brilliant Prakash…I never thought of failures as gossip for others. You are right. They do not try to build up but tear down. Failures to me are lessons in Life. hence I do not gossip because I see others’ failures as their lessons!
And I LOVE the quote about your books! How if they return a bit damaged you feel you must replace them; I feel the same way. And thankfully we do NOT collect cars like we do books, hahaha 🙂
Thank you for sharing your writing/feelings.

It was so coincidental how I’d read what you wrote & then could apply your words to my friend’s situation (& mine also). You REALLY are a ray of sunshine to many with your writing…..now I bet you are blushing…..hehehehe….

I have had many thoughts about gossip and the gossip of failure and people even make up failures of others and then gossip about them. People’s gossip of me had hurt my life very much. I try hard to not do it to others.
