Few months back there was a quiz that I created on face book saying "how well do you know me?" Nearly all my friends and Bhaiya marked wrong answer for a question ,which according to me said, 'my favorite color combo= purple/orange'! Although the quiz was for the fun sake and I never realized that sub-consciously I was adopting something so close to my life!
Today it was the second last day of the college and I attended a workshop called 'The power of attitude' by a gentle lady who shook me out of my oblivion and made me confront realities! My greatest fear turned out to be -1.Fear of being scrutinized ,checked and criticized for my flaws [I have many] and 2- Fear of not having a patient ear/listener close person whom I can turn all my worries[the fact being, many people consider me a good friend and share their secrets,but I cannot,may be because I cannot speak out my mind to myself.
And surprisingly answers came out from my mind itself...cutting short the introspection and brain-storming part I am coming straight to the conclusion- "I love Shivangi Shaily-the beautiful,strong woman who has light to illuminate this world! People do not bother me and I am not hurt with any thing at any cost!"
A mystery,an un-deciphered history,a mask to hide from the harsh reality.
I liked purple because I was tempted to succumb to mediocrity.
A celebration,the mark of festivity,a reason to hide from savage reality.
I loved orange because I wanted to pretend ordinary.
I never imbibed them honestly,sub-consciously my prerogative was to escape the truth!
To cover myself from my own soul's extreme brute.
But a little shining light made me realize something.
I am neither purple nor orange because I want to hide anything.
If I am purple it is because I have potential to lead,to set paths that no one can forfeit!
To innovate, to direct the bandwagon upright!
If I am still orange it is because I want to celebrate beauty inside me,to spread joy,open my eyes and see!
To nurture that creative spark, capture that beckoning light and always retrieve!
Purple and orange have changed their clothes for me!
I love Shivangi Shaily and I love these, I believe!!!
