To think or not to think

We think in a language, in a language we are comfortable with. It’s mostly our mother tongue. We don’t even realize it that we think in a language subconsciously. But imagine a person with no language. If a newborn baby were to be put alone on an island and never taught anything, would he think? [...]

Everyone needs a drug to feel better

(This song is the perfect soundtrack to the story Pino Forastiere-Fase -1)

She was lucky that I was there at that time. She was lucky I was there at all. When she collapsed on the floor, she was lucky I walked into the room. I called an ambulance right away without even thinking twice. She stayed [...]

“California Waiting”

 
The beach was beautiful. The wind in my hair felt amazing as I drove towards the hut in my roofless Land Rover. The weather for the day had been put together just for me. The right amount of sun and clouds, just perfect. As my half open button down shirt fluttered in the sea breeze, [...]

There were only a few things in life that intruiged him, and the city lights from the sea was one of them. He stood at the bow of the cruiser by the railing, gripping the cold steel bar firmly. He kept staring towards the city lights that sparkled and shone and made him think about [...]

Freezing Hell

There was no other color that the eye could appreciate expcet white. The snow had everything in its grip. The situation had been worsened by the blowing winds that were as freezing as the snow itself, probably worse. This is how the hell in an alter universe would be, not burning hot but freezing cold.

Why Smith didn’t come to work the next day

Today; Walter:
  Walter barged into Smith’s office. Both Smith and Jeff turned around confused. Smith was busy having coffee while chit chatting with Jeff. Jeff was seated in the chair in front of Smith’s desk and Smith was standing besides him sipping his coffee.
  ‘Walter? What’s the matter?” Smith said not knowing what was going [...]
