Capture with your eyes

They say every picture tells a story.
Well, I can see a lot of these stories around me.
The billion selfies tell a story of self obsession, of loneliness, of vanity.
In the past the camera catered to capturing moments, but today those moments are lost.
We are so busy taking pictures for admiration, we forget what we are losing out on.
Your friend sitting next to you just got dumped, SO? So what ? Butfirstletmetakeaselfie! 
Your parents want to talk to you! But picture! 
Who is this illusion for? 
For social media,which changes so radically! 
For those few likes? 
For those who admire you? But do they know the hollowness they admire?
Start taking pictures from your eyes, and capture those moments so well that the flashes never fade.
Make memories, not pictures!


You for you

As you look at your father lovingly , hers' violated her.
As your mother feeds you, his sold him.
As your brother protects you, hers' killed her.
As you husband respects you, hers' humiliated her.
As your sister cares for you, hers' forced her into prostitution.
She got pushed, deeper and deeper, waiting to be rescued, waiting for help to come.
When no help came, she gave up hope.
And then she fought,she struggled and survived.
The days for knights in shining armours are gone.
Today it's just You for YOU! 
Help yourself, empower yourself.

Closing.

The door was left ajar,
She walked in and then she walked out.
She shouldn't have walked in at all.
Each time she missed him, she walked in.
Each time she walked out , her self respect was a little low. 
She repeated this a few times till she was ashamed.
She realized the need to close the door.
How could she but? 
Was she that strong ?
She gathered all her brokenness, and mustering all her strength she closed this door.
It wasn't an easy task, her insides yelled and pleaded to walk in just once more. 
But this time she just sternly closed the door.
He still dint close his door. 
She wondered sometimes. What if he might knock one day ?
