Wild Flower

We must help ourselves. We are ment for ourselves.

Suddenly a flower started to bloom at the end of the room. It was mistyc red. And I long to find that flower again.

They say you are destined to be cheated. Won’t you suffer?

I will avoid it as oracles are made to be avoided carefully. I will find your pace and defeat you.

The sun never set on the shores that day. I was feeling sick and fell on the sand. The sounds of the winter winds caught my years. I was spell bound to realize it was a monster that hunted in my ears and I feared him at once. It was cold, and was getting darker inside my head. The sounds of the eastern winds caught hold of another sound. It was a female voice. I thought it to be my own voice, I felt less haunted. It was still dark in my head, but not so dark. I was recalling my past in the hard times. When I thought I was talking to myself, it was indeed someone else. I realize it now. It was the monster from the past. So was it a male or a female? I believe there was more than one.

Over the horizon the sun always sets, but do you know what went different? The sun used to shine brighter in our lives. Obviously, I did not see it in the beginning dealing with all those around me going wrong. The stars used the shine a bit brighter each night but did you know what went wrong? We were not there to notice it. Now that the world has changed, we will discover the little things in life that we disregarded in the past.

I know there are horrors out there, I know there are much horrible things out there but we can at least be happy the days we are still alive in isolation. It isn’t such a bad expression. You will get used to it. The lock down may however be it, we will have our economies coming up to the surface if online marketing and it will suffice to a great extent. Or otherwise the government will figure out something for the best. Now it is indeed a time to be happy that we are alive and will see the future and take precautions that we live to see the future.

I wonder whether it will become mandatory for people to wear masks even after the pandemic is gone.  As there will be fear in the society that another such pandemic might occur very soon. I am sure there will be some who will be bold enough to not wear the mask even now. Or are there other factors that are affecting the situation? The world has gone into xenophobia launching on Chinese and Chinese looking people but in China they are targeting blacks. Minority are at a great a disadvantage. They always have been. Even doctors are being ill-treated.

But where do you want to stand? Is the ocean of people who are following the rules or the ones who are being irresponsible and still trying to run a campaign against humanity?

There is both good and evil in this world but where else better to see that our news channels? Yes, it is everywhere how people are coming out of their homes for they do not understand the concept of virus or there are no means to watch the news. Even if the videos are released, explaining the stuff, and making it easier for the uneducated but is never enough to educate them. It is hard in a place like there are so many illiterate unfortunates.

Red was wishing that she could leave this school she was studying in, and be a part of an adventure in her young mind. She was yet to discover the world’s distasteful people and situations. But she was positive that she could fight her way out in any situation. It was what every youngster is like. 

She did not like her new school. And missed her old school in the last town she was in way too much. Well, at least she did not imagine she would miss it this much. The way people treated her, she did not feel welcomed. And yet she smiled and made some friends. Sometimes thought to herself this would not last forever, I would eventually get out of this. Weeks passed and sometimes she missed her best friend and sometimes her senior whom she talked a bit more than her other friends. 

She was a student of this new school in standard VI. She did not have that amazing bond with anyone around here. She even found it difficult to think that she will have a special bond with anyone from around here. Nights went and she cried in her bed a few times. But that was not all, faith has planned something else which she did not know yet. A faith, so intertwined that her young mind could never expect.

There isn’t a thing that will not captivate your mind when you experience a new thing. Like you were going on a trip and you saw things that were new to your eyes. And a new movie with good choreography always seems to amaze you more for the first time. When you watch it again, it amazes you much lesser. But in thrive of the previous flow of emotions, people go to watch the movie twice. One such incident is the Iron Man 3 and later on the Marvel hit and much-awaited Avengers Endgame. People all around went crazy and speculations on Loki’s so-called fake death were going round and round. 

People were saying “I can’t take it any longer, I have waited enough.” loud and clearer as the release date was approaching closer. So of my super impressed friends watch the movies twice and some thrice. And the tickets sold out super quick and there was the full theatre for weeks. Maybe almost lasted more than a month. 

Well, there may be many aspects to these movies but the most highlighted ones are the story and cinematography or choreography. The superpower, fantasy and sci-fi add to its flavours. As these things, such as the superpower and godly beings have intrigued humans overages.

And mythology has talked about superhumans all along. Such as the son of god. The demigods for example, what if they were modified, test-tube babies?  Well, you might have already heard about it before or not but it is a very high probability in this age as we see our modern-day tech weapons. The scientists say it will be possible after a few more years if not decades.  Such as the modern impenetrable skin to be used by the military or if they are already using. And the auto-heal if wounded tech embedded in them will make them wolverines.

And the people are already doing what their gods did in the past. Make impenetrable skin is one of them. And even fairy tales had the cloak of invisibility which is now a reality. We are not very far from the movies we watch. Indeed it seems the movies about aliens and space travels are trying to familiarise with the upcoming alien contacts. 

The skies tell us we are not alone and the ground leaves evidence behind. The universe indeed screams to us we are not alone. 

“I feel so disheartened about my studies. Sometimes I feel like evolving into a better person but the world does not allow it yet. It has been 9 year since the turmoil began in the stars. Just one more year to go, I will be back to my original form of mind.” Red calculated in her mind.

But still it could not avoid to come to the knowledge of the person sitting next to her. She was named Noe in the distant stars. Here they do not speak her name aloud when she is using her powers. She knew it all but she did not speak the truth out. She even could feel how Red was felling but she preferred to keep silent on this matter. “Red concentrate on the present. You will eventually turn out to be a great person. You can’t be unconsidered of the facts what the stars will give you at the end. You just need to work on for it to look not so eye catchy when you get it all back.” Noe smiled at Red even if she did not want to. 

Red thought she could read her mind but every time she asks, her thoughts are dismissed by saying ‘The stars were speaking to me about it and I wanted to tell you that.’ “So the stars told you that?” She asked. 

“Yea” Noe replied. 

There will be cases where you do not like the person but you constantly have feelings for that person but deep inside you know you hate to have those feelings.  Your whole life seem to revolve around that person. You maybe at any age, you teenage, 20s, 30s, 40s or more than that. It is never good to have these unwanted feelings, as it hampers your social life and the way you naturally think. It even makes a fool out of you for your absent minded nature and reactions. 

It is pretty clear that you have a crush on that person. The crushes, as teens fantasizes, is not always romantic or cool. Having a crush and getting accepted is only a fantasy in the early ages. Having them in the later ages is a burden. And crush does not always happen with the person whom you like the most or is the most appropriate for you. It may happen with anyone a classmate, a co-worker, a husband’s friend or anything absurd you can imagine.

And mostly these crushes arises for the person you meet daily, such as while taking the same route or following the persons posts and comments. The effect will remain the same even if you do not like the person’s posts and comment or read as anonymous. In these situations you can avoid taking the same vehicle. Which will reduce the interactions and you will be free from their clutches. These may seem hard but will definitely work. And avoid reading the posts by this person and not have the influence. If you think you will accidentally land on his posts, then avoid using that social media and use private messages to stay connected with your friends. And do not tell your friends why you are doing it. Just say you are trying out a new pattern. Otherwise everything will be ruined.

I know you don’t like to lie to your friends. But it is for your own mental and social health.
