How to be a hero in a world filled with heroic faces holding zero accountability? How to pose yet know the world is crashing down? Hold. A. Pose. Enjoy the moment knowing that everything isn’t perfect but in moments I feel so grateful to have made memories with friends.
I am reminded, I am lucky, I am so goddamn lucky to be alive. To see the world with my eyes, there is so much more to see and I am keen to learn, to live with everything & nothing all at once, the pain, the pleasures, the beauty and remorse felt by the collective & self.
Yet as I post these, I don’t feel perfect.
A part of my brain is saying thousand mean things but about my body, especially my body. One that has carried??? Me forward through so much. I guess that is a constant battle and I am finding peace in learning that I don’t need to remain small & timid forever. I can take up more space. And in this big universe, I am still an ant. I am smaller than the bigger problems. Yet these problems are a reflection of what society fed me as a child. I am unlearning & relearning, always. This is a long caption which most won’t even read, so if you did… hey are you drinking water? Are you being kind to yourself? Are you kissing the burns caused by whosoever because at the end they are on you?
I may not know you, I may know you.
In this big big world if I am on your feed, this is your reminder to be the hero who takes accountability, makes changes, adapts, is willing to unlearn, be kind to self and others & be someone who is letting patriarchy burn a slow death at least within themselves.
Saying that as I transition isn’t easy because what kind of a man do I even want to be? Grateful, I get to build me from scratch.
‘Na main aabi na main khaki
Na mai aatish na main paun
Bulla ki jaana main kaun’
