Happiness??!!

 Days fly through imagining their faces

And my imagination blooms into gardens, waiting for their conversations

Their house reminds me of distant memories

A relation I knew existed but never felt until that night


Hearing profound stories and  wondering if they were real

Making up scenarios just to know if they still remember us


Flying across the world imagining I would make them proud

Winning prizes imagining they would congratulate


That night proved it all, 

Maybe the stories were true, 

Maybe my mom was correct on their attitude and understanding


But really what I saw that moment

Was the love I was looking for

Soaring across every corner in my heart were the waves of satisfaction

Finding my tribe in this chaos created by time proved that hope still exists in the deepest of sorrows 

The mistakes that remained unforgiven 

Remained buried deep 

After all I'm still small enough to find happiness in humans !

- Bharathi Senthilkumar

This poem is on quite a personal note! It just happened all in one night, so putting it in a few paragraphs may not do full justice but how else can a poetess share her feelings!!

Hope I've made you feel those waves !!

it's really happening

When it all happens too fast  When you realise sitting around isn't an option anymore  When you feel the anxiety building  When your heart starts beating faster When your mind races imagining the impossible When your surroundings are quiet and dark but your gut pushes you to get out  When all that was once a routine slowly starts to end  When all the mistakes replay in your mind  When all your dreams aren't only what you see in sleep but the fuel to make everyday brighter Maybe that's when life's happening  Pulling you to make your decisions and draw your plan  Urging you to succeed in such a phenomenal way that even you had never imagined  Just random feelings and thoughts  - BHARATHI SENTHILKUMAR

Survival vs. Success

It's a common misconception that survival and success are synonymous. While surviving challenges is undoubtedly a significant achievement, it doesn't necessarily equate to a fulfilling life. This post attempts to give perspective into the nuances of survival and success, exploring how they intersect and diverge. Historically, survival was the primary goal of human existence. Hunters and gatherers faced daily threats from predators and environmental factors. Their ability to adapt and overcome these challenges was paramount. Today, while our immediate threats have evolved, the fundamental need for survival persists. However, success is more than just staying alive. It involves achieving a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and well-being. This can be achieved through personal growth, career advancement, meaningful relationships, or contributions to society. Innovation has been a double-edged sword. It's increased our odds of survival, but it's also created new complexities. ...

Art vs AI

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, many artists and creative professionals are growing concerned. Just as the Industrial Revolution automated manual labor, AI now seems to be taking over intellectual and artistic work. From writing and research to art and learning, it’s quite agonizing to watch AI make even our minds complacent. Sure, AI offers the benefits of speed and efficiency. But if we start accepting vague reproductions of a lifetime’s work, it raises serious concerns about how we express perspectives. The key difference between human-made and AI-generated art lies in emotion . Every word, brushstroke, and musical note carries the weight of personal experience, cultural shifts, and societal narratives. Art isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about storytelling, struggle, and human connection. AI can be a useful tool, but it shouldn’t replace human artistry. It lacks the ability to feel, dream, or rebel —qualities that define great art. Instead of letting AI...
