FRIENDSHIP

25-March-2010 We all have friends at all stages of our lives. But how many of us keep in touch with them forever??? I always wondered why 99% of friendships break at every stage. I was very close with one of my friends in the 5th class. We used to say we’d never be separated. But now, I don’t even know where she is… Then came my 10th-class friend. We were like flesh and nail—we wore the same dress, ate together, and hung out everywhere. But now she is far away from me. We talk only twice a year—once on her birthday and once on mine. And then, my college friends. Not just one, but 13 of them. Very close to me. We ruled the class! Everyone was jealous of our friendship. But how long would it last??? It was nice to hear my friends say that we’d meet once a year and have fun. But practically… is it possible? Friendship is like a train. It starts at the source station and ends at the destination. It stops at every station along the way. Friends are like passengers—they board the train of fr...

A Journey from Journals to a Full-Time Writing Career

February 2025. Today, I sat down with my cup of coffee, opened my laptop, and found myself on https://maithilyarulraja.blogspot.com/ —a place I hadn't visited in ages. As I scrolled through my old posts, I couldn't help but smile. Each post was a time capsule, taking me back to a simpler time when my only intention was to record life’s little moments and put my thoughts into words. It wasn’t planned, it wasn’t polished, but it was pure passion—words written for the joy of writing. The blog began in 2010. Back then, I was working as an IT analyst, with no clue that one-day writing would become my full-time career. I had no grand vision for the blog; I simply wanted a space to share my experiences, document daily events, and reflect on life. Little did I know that those casual posts would lay the foundation for something much bigger—a passion that would eventually turn into my profession. Looking back at the posts, I felt an overwhelming sense of nostalgia. Some posts were funn...

ALWAYS MAKE NEW MISTAKES

I strongly believe that no one in this world is perfect. Everyone—young or old, rich or poor, literate or illiterate—commits mistakes. But what truly matters is what we learn from those mistakes. As human beings, we should make mistakes, learn from them, and grow. I’m proud of being who I am because every mistake I’ve made has taught me something about life and the people around me. Try and experience everything in life, whether it’s a good habit or a bad one. If it’s good, keep it. If it’s bad, let it go the next moment. I’m truly happy being myself because I’ve dared to test life. I would encourage everyone to do the same. Make lots of mistakes, but never repeat the same one twice. Life is ours to live. Play with it, explore, and always make new mistakes! Originally posted on 25-Aug-2010 Edited on 09-Feb-2025
