There is something about earning, may be it happened with me or may be happens with others as well, but when I was growing up, there were lot of things that we as a family could not afford. And for some reasons, I just kept track of it! I know this could be dumb or I don’t know like, I have been told that its best to not think about the past and keep working on the present to build a future. It is valid in some sense, but the way I look at it, is that there are two things to it, we have a soul and a body.
By what I have read is that the soul remains the same, and the body grows. So, the inner child or the version of me when I was a child needed certain things and it could not get. And so the elder version of my body, should do certain things for my soul. Most often those are materlialistic things, sometimes things I wish to experience. Either ways, there are two things that I can remember that I always wanted but could not get, one being novels and the other being colours.
So, when I started earning, I bought a lot of them, more than what I can read or colour. I got all those fancy colours and those fancy colouring books, be it sparkle pens or that huge set of pencil colours or the water colours, not thinking too much about the price. And my love affair with books has been deeper. I would buy books wherever I saw them, whenever I had some money with me, would go to those book fairs and bought some more books.
The only problem with all of this being that I always just bought them, never read them or coloured them! Only this year I decided that I would not buy another book unless I start finishing off with what I already got! This quest has led me into reading Death, Karma, how to change your life and currently reading what the road beckons! The next in line is the Pakistan paradox and some of the colouring books.
This post I just wanted to share with you some of the colourings that I did! And I know that it might sound stupid to some that I have started on this journey to do all the things that I had once planned for, and could not do, may be looks like I am living in the past, but if you have so much unfinished in the past, with no clue as to what is happening in the future, I’d suggest you do some of the things that were left out!




I know some of them have really bad colouring, some of them were half done and then picked up months later, may be you don’t like any of them! For me, when colouring each of them, they did gave me peace, lot of peace and helped me with so much turmoil happening with life.
I wish that in your life, not matter where you are, you do find something to look forward to, and if there is nothing to look forward to, you find something from the past, some unfinished business and do complete it, in this life.
