The Trepidation
Million thoughts
Countless words
Running through my mind
Quizzing problems
Troubling questions
Where are the answers I will find?
Shouting noises
Judging opinions
Not even one that I can hear
Faint heartbeat
Little inner voice
That I find sounds unclear
Pitch dark or,
Glowing bright,
Future is setting up the alarm
Am I ok,
Am I ready,
To embrace it with open arms?
Path be narrow or,
Road be wide
In the darkness like a guiding light,
Tie my fear(s)
Free my dreams
Walk with me holding me tight.

4 Steps To Take When Your Website Is Hacked
Hola people!
It’s so good to be back. I know there wasn’t a break that I was enjoying but as the life was giving me a ride I was not blogging as much as I should. So much so for my ignorance that it went unnoticed at first that my blog website was hacked. Being festive season, I was quite occupied with the festive fanfare that the notifications regarding unauthorised users went unnoticed. But as the few stories demanded attention and I strolled back to my virtual home to share them with you,...

Dare To Step Into Infinity And Beyond
A deafening applaud took over the hall as Suez walked in gracefully, wearing the most exquisite dress of this Fashion Fiesta. Her beauty eclipsed the shine of the stars which had been enveloping the crowd until now.
I let her enjoy the moment of absolute admiration the audience has been showering on her. I joined her, and we bowed to everyone around, and then towards the camera for everyone watching us on their screens. This gesture of gratitude marked the end of a thrilling week, and definit...

The Walk
The clouds were thundering, the lightning inviting the storm. The wind was swaying wildly as if wanting to take away everything it can. Trees were trying their best, asking their roots to hold on a little longer. The celestial bodies were nowhere to be seen but one could interpret this as their anger towards me. Me?
Where am I? And what’s happening?
I open my eyes. The sun has been overshadowed as the darkness stepped around but it isn’t accompanied by its usual comrades. It takes a few minut...

The Canopy Sunrise
The doorbell disturbed their daily dinner ritual. Mark got to get the door before Ann could resent the disturbance.
“Hon, it’s an envelope addressed to you. Somebody just left it at the door and left”, he spoke as he returned to the table. She took the envelope and tore it open, curious about the sender. She questioningly glanced at Mark to observe if there was any surprise in waiting. But he either wasn’t aware of the contents or pretended too well to not know.
Dear Ann Roosevelt,
We are de...

“What do you think sir?” The subordinate asked David.
“I’m confused. It’s like playing in the loop. Everyone seems to have a reason to kill. Nobody knew about Angela and Christopher until the will came out and she confessed her past with him. She could have killed them both. Neil could have killed in an attempt to marry Angela to benefit from the property. John could’ve killed for the property too.”

“Did Media pop up with any more stories of their own?” inquired Inspector David, going through the new reports in his hands.
“No Sir, the news lived its six minutes of fame and has died now. Though a revelation from our side may ignite a new spark in them”, answered his subordinate.
“What new have we got on the investigation front?”
“Christopher Shine had a will and its contents are now with us. Though his lawyers hav...

“Give me Five!” shouted Mia in excitement.
Angela grinned, still being in the arms of the love of her life. All her dreams have realized and she couldn’t believe it herself.
“Oh, Angi! I can’t wait to attend your wedding!” Mia was always known to keep excitement unhidden.
“Yes of course. You’ll be my Maid of Honour after all”, Angela said walking towards her best friend now.
Mia ran towards her and hugged her tight. “I’m so happy...
