Express Mode!


The sun pops above the horizon spreads its rays far and wide, licks off the shadow from every street every home, breathing a new freshness to the day. And then it happens. An emotion inside me dances out in the open, inspiring me to write and voice out my thoughts.


Joy, freedom, contentment, exploration, openness, self-expression, excitement, completion, thankfulness, and giving are a few of the words that describe my feelings and purpose of writing. Writing goes beyond a blank piece of paper and pen. Happiness starts when the idea and desire to write something new becomes an urge that pushes the creativity. Then the pen dances on the paper

There are millions of things inside us waiting to be expressed, to be given a shape of an art, a painting, a poem or a dance form. But there is always something in or around us that stops the flow. And this flow has to be regulated...

It can be an inspiration from things around you or a motivation from a friend that would push you to “express”! So often we hold back our emotions and feelings that we kill it within ourselves even before it could breathe a new life.

Every one of us has in him/her a continent of undiscovered character. Blessed is he who acts the Columbus to his own soul. Most of the time we over look our own feelings and desires and end up saying or doing things that we did not intend to. Life has reduced to things like unspoken words, unexpressed feelings and unheard thoughts, and this is kind of frustrating to all of us. Because I believe we all want to be heard.

“They say people in your life are seasons and everything that happens is for a reason”, so if there are so many seasons and reasons in life, it would be nothing but unfair from our part to not let our thoughts and feelings to be heard.

If it wasn’t for my friends who expressed their feelings to see me put up my blog today, I would not have had the courage to do it myself. So, expressing you views to others will actually open up doors of opportunity to people around you and create wonders in their life. Like, it did for me.

So, let go of all your feelings and thoughts and allow them to paint on the canvas of your life. Go out there and brighten somebody’s day, extend a helping hand or give a strong shoulder to cry on or just a simple smile would do... but make sure you express! Because what was given to you was not given to you alone... it was given to share... to pass it on...
