Have you ever felt the pressure of the world on your shoulders?
Have you ever felt so lonely that even at times your shadow cannot be your only company?
Have you ever witnessed something horrific and never had a chance to stop it?
Have you ever lost someone to suicide?
Have you ever felt like you never belonged?
And have you ever felt like you never saw that all coming, when you wished to be a grown up?
While we are children our entire mind set is about growing up and becoming adults. We pay attention to everything our teenage siblings does, and tries to imitate them. Then we wish, 'oh how awesome would it be to grow up.'
What an illusion that was.
I myself were one of those kids.
My imaginative mind couldn't wait to grow up and do 'grown up things' But I never knew the pain that I had to conquer during my teenage years. Never did I ever imagine that I would lose everything to something called life.

Did you ever realize that we all have had that moment of burden?
The world's pressure will be on our shoulders if we let it. Have you ever tried to let go that pressure? It's quite difficult isn't it...
We cannot trust our own shadow... because when the sun goes down our shadow walks always in to the darkness. So don't depend on it.
Sometimes we cannot blame ourselves for things we couldn't do. Moaning about it will never let us move forward in life. All we can do is learn from our mistakes and try to prevent it from happening again.
Suicide is a scar that will always be etched to our lives. Sad realities of the world leads us to that route, but our only strength is the hope, we have stored somewhere in our mind.
And yes, I have, but there is nothing we can do once it is lost. So do me a favor and don't stop your journey.
Never try to fight to belong in society because none of us actually belong to it. The people that do belong to society is pretending to belong.
Be who you are and realize that life might take away, but it also gives back. You just have to give it a chance.
The future holds nothing, but we hold the future in our hands.
Come soon to Vancouver and start a new life. I really miss you Khushi, and it's been too long. Graduate the eff out of there and come back to me. We will take over the world together.
With love,
Arnav
