One of the biggest mistakes we tend to make in life is to compare oneself with others. Everyone is unique and different. We all have our own strengths and weaknesses, our own challenges and struggles and our own way of thinking and doing things. The moment we start comparing ourselves to others we are basically undervaluing and underappreciating ourselves.
Sometimes we make the wrong choices to get to the right place.
Heard this line in some movie...thought of sharing it.
I'd rather be known as a loser than a quitter.
Don't bask in success and glory
for too long
And neither sulk in failures for too long
Just move ahead
He was lonely
She was lonely
They felt safe in each other's company and decided to be lonely together
Now they're never lonely again
Love is not just a four letter word..it's an ocean of emotion. The value of this word is immense. The impact of these words is deep. So when you say or express these words to someone..do so only if you sincerely mean it..for this is a word not to be played with.

I still write poems about you
the same way
a widow
brings flowers to the grave
each word is tied
to your shadow
led to the slaughterhouse
for muted screams
we only existed
in the gap of time
inside the silence between heartbeats
now our borrowed history
is fading
like the end of a song
like the last line of a poem
You have been gone
Im still here writing
