Alexa, Please play Chapter 3 – Motions of the Earth from Geography(Class 6)!

Revolution -The word comes from Latin, and is related to the word “revolutio” which means to turn around. From Oxford, Merium Webster Dictionary to the dictionary covered in dust on our study table holds, which we no longer touch teach us that revolution simply means "change." When it comes to the historical lessons, revolution talks about the greatest change in history covered in blood, sweat, experiments, discoveries etc. Geographical revolution celebrates the tango earth on its exit. If you are not familiar with the tango, it's just a dance without any errors as they say. 

In simple words, changing seasons, oceanic currents and jet streams will be affected because of Earth's revolution around the sun. 
We intend to forget the basics, we will fall into liquor for forgetful, laziness, desires and claim the revolution as something achieved because of our hardships. We claim to be the most intelligent creatures ever. But, we are sheeps

But that changes after the first half week, the promises we made for ourselves ( good diet chart, helping others, completing 24 books this year and the list is endless) breaks. We break our promises and fall into the cycle of boredom. This is my story, maybe someone will relate with theirs too. 

The date keeps changing everyday, the sun, moon, planets and all the celestial bodies keep working for what they were created. Except, the mankind - it promises a lie to itself. We all. We all make plans to run away from the tightening in our chest and the productivity for a day for mere fun. We will drown ourselves in liquors and cake like we gallantly won a big step in our lives except for when truly we have to celebrate. 

When should we celebrate ourselves then?
The day we laugh for real, the day we spread a smile, the day someone ate because we gifted them secret charity, the day we didn't cry to sleep, the day we didn't hurt a soul. That's when we must celebrate. 🌻✨

“…Anyone who is grateful does so to the profit of his own soul…” (31:12)

In other words, being grateful for your life will benefit and purify your soul. And that must be the goal for next moment because each moment counts without the format of new date, day, or year.

Pitch, Poetry, and Parallel Times: What a Joka!📽️🍁✍🏼🗓️

कुछ कह दिया होता? कूर्ग का टिकट करा ही लिया होता? शायद सब बेहतर होता। The “if theory” is the wisest of all for the pitch — even for skeptical humans. Time traveling has always fascinated my mind, as it does for many of us. We often wish to leap into the future or alter the past. Last July, I unexpectedly got a call from the city of Jhilmil and Barfi. I felt the emotions exactly as Satyajit Ray’ s movies make us feel, with the metaphysical boundaries of dreams and reality, reminiscent of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s poetry. Before my rotting thoughts could steal all the joy, as they did in the movie Lootera near lakes, I tried to reassemble my gratitude while being in sujood. Literature expertise would lead to an institute talking about consultancy. Phew! I never thought God’s pitch worked like that. If 25-year-old Munazza hadn’t heard that, she wouldn’t have thought of this pun: What a joka! No wonder I’ve stopped writing. Ideas only come in dreams, in waves, often butchered...

11:11? What a stupid wish-granting factory reset ⏳

Scene I   Lights Camera Pen☀️  How lonely and lovely at the same time, To live in a castle of own, How strange and fluffy  The winds from roof Where rain keeps showering  Like dancing along. I keep singing poems While doing the laundary  And hanging the clothes to go dry Some lose their charms Some crankles, some run  Some turn out from black to greyyyyyyyy! I tip toe the work I Like it's an art! It's always always better to do work this way. It's easy, and lovely  And as Mary⁵ and Bert⁶ says,  "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."¹ The people around notice nothing unusual as they're part of their own musicals. The kids love splashing in lakes, the women complete their everyday chores sharing emotions like an art, men walk around with an umbrella so dark making sure they hide their emotions, strangers both men and women whistle along (some hidden, most vague), cats own the roads and walk like Hadid sisters on Victoria's last ramp walk, lea...

A Love Poem, Finally🗺️🏡

Scribble, Scribble, Scribble, Crumbling another poem on paper  without a word, Oh! Wait, scribbling on your skin.🪟 The beautiful arc of the stretch marks—I always wish I had one. Ammi had many; she told me Nani got some after giving birth to her. I stole a man with a scribble [strech marks].  Oh! I can't stop imagining the loud crackles during heavy rain- One in his eyes that I name his cheeks a land of tears, Other outside his window of the slurs people speak for him.  Their ugly mindsets never come close  to even his bin polythene. 🗑️  The man I stole wore long sleeves to hide the stretch marks. 👔 I wore long sleeves to avoid being questioned about my favorite burnt skin, “ Hey, what kind of mark are on your neck and forearms .” 👘 I am tired of telling them  How much I love my burnt skin, As they made me a living story. Along the ocean of unbothered waves, I'm tired of his disgust for hating his stretch marks. Sometimes I carve a line or two, 🖋️...
