Taare Aasmaan Pe

My life is like that of Ishaan Awasthi. I have problems understanding things in life, have problems facing life itself and have problems in dealing with life. I have been taught that three times nine is twenty-seven but in real life three times nine is actually three! Yeah. And if you don't believe it, you are either naive or belong to the category that makes three times nine three.

I am dyslexic. Not to actual alphabets but to the alphabets that comprise the language called life. And sadly, there is no cure, no sympathy for this disease. And no Amir Khan posing as Ram Shankar Nikumbh either (quite an atypical name, don't you think? And we get plastered on even with fancy names. Life!!!)

For me, the stars are unreachable. Let alone being on the ground. Even looking at them hurts the eyes. But the real hurt is to the soul. Bruised, battered and defeated.

And anyway, don't the stars look good where they are? Unreachable, cool and inviting? It takes fire within to be a star. Sadly, the fire seems missing...
