On Love

 Love does not hurt. No. It doesn't. Our expectations do. The memories do. Miscommunication does. Our ambivalence does. Anger and/or rage does. Painful anguish does. Lacking of respect does. Our regression of mental state does. Our desperate craving does. The fear of or the shattering itself of our dreams does. Inadequate love for ourselves does. Lack of our own self's clarity does. Resisting to comprehend someone else's perspectives does. Various life altering situations affecting the connections do. Our self-serving biases and prejudices do. Our condescending acts, behavior or attitudes do. Agonizing in truth does. Unintended or intended hostility or malevolence does. Apathy and the lacking effort does. Rationalising or intellectualising the truth does. Displacement of our harsh emotions of anger, sadness and such into someone or something else does. Other various factors may hurt. But no! Love in itself does not. It is purity in itself. I might not even be wrong to write down that it is the basis of our whole existence.

तिम्रो सामु

हेर फर्की तिम्रा ती रक्तलिप्त पाथहरु, आज एकान्तमा रगतको आँसु झारिरहेको एक्लो चन्द्रमा भन्दा गाढा छन्। हेर पीडाले गुहार मागिरहेका कोमल माटोमा थचक्क बसि, तिम्रा काला पै...

Love and smile Lounge and Cafe

Even this cream donut is uglier than usual today. Milan would still love it though. What? You want some of it? You’re big but still a cute dog. Here take it. What you want more? Here you go. What? Still want more? Here you go and no more, shoo shoo… This park feels so good at night. I should buy a diet coke and wafers. Wafers are bad for you dogs though, haha. I don’t care about the money today. I am not returning to my room tonight. There they are, the burgers. I should definitely eat one. What? You’re still following me? No way, I’m not giving you my burgers. I’m glad I lost the sight of that dog. I can’t even remember how many times my feet have kissed this beautifully paved footpath. These street sellers must be the same ones I saw yesterday. Yet they always feel different. Oh, the book seller has already left. It’s 8 PM I see. These street light always feel good. It’s like they’re happy and happier than I could ever be. O...
