Redefining Love



Sometime back I had reviewed a wonderful book called How about a sin tonight? by Novoneel Chakraborty and had said in my review how this book had made me look at love and relationships from a very different perspective. I had also shared a few beautiful quotes from the book with a promise to do a full post dedicated to the wonderful thoughts from this book which definitely deserve much more than a thought. So here it goes:

  • I think the best and the worst things of life happen when you are least prepared.
  • I am not a fear for my fear, For it I was a fear for my fear then my fear would not be my fear.
  • Why the sun does not come an inch closer to earth? Since it knows , one step forward and it will burn the earth beyond repair and recognition. So sometimes distance is what is necessary to keep a relationship, a relationship. 
  • The moment you have someone in your heart they say everything in life becomes black and white.
  • Marriage puts us in a risk of getting used to that person.
  • Life is about doing what you never wanted to do . Love is about doing what you never thought you could do.
  • Are relationships like toothpaste? Everyday we unknowingly empty them one squeeze at a time and then one day we realize there's no more left. There's the tube, of course, but no more paste.
  • People around me have been charged for different crimes, but inside all are accountable for the same sin; LIFE!
  • Love is the only realized part of a connection.
  • Tomorrow is a stranger, yesterday is a stalker, today is the savior. But when the savior is confused the stranger begins to stalk and the stalker becomes even scarier.
  • As a kid I used to wait intensely for so many things. As I grew my waiting for list suffered because life convinced me somethings are not worth waiting for.
  • They say adolescent crushes wear off easily. I say a lot of adolescent things wear off easily except their memory of it.
  • We were each others' best arrangement. Arrangements are always temporary; love isn't.
  • If I ever lose you I'll be scared all my life - of life.
  • A relationship goes deeper within us than we can ever judge, feel and perceive. And love is the only tip of that depth.
  • Absence - our whole life is about absence of something or someone in some degree or form so much so that it makes you die everyday.
  • Love is always worth it.

Book Review: Palestine Wail - Poems by Yahia Lababidi

In Palestine Wail: Poems , Yahia Lababidi creates a profound and unflinching exploration of the ongoing Palestinian crisis, drawing from his own heritage and heartbreak to reflect on a political and humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded across decades. This collection, imbued with personal history, political outrage, and spiritual contemplation, serves as both a witness to injustice and a call to humanity. The work’s origins lie deeply in Lababidi’s own roots—his Palestinian grandmother, Rabiha Dajani, was forced to flee Jerusalem at gunpoint, a traumatic event that reverberates throughout Lababidi’s poetry.  As an Arab-American writer, Lababidi is uniquely positioned to speak on the intersection of identity, politics, and human rights. His poetry, both personal and political, draws a clear line between the suffering of the Palestinian people and the complicity of global powers in perpetuating that suffering. Through his words, Lababidi eloquently counters the equation that Z...
