Almost Adulting.

20. It's such a small double-digit number; five times 20 is 100, which is not that far from years of life expectancy in 2020, regardless of how disastrous this year has been. According to my parents, one has a better moral opinion based on how long he/she has lived. This makes sense because I am so sure to frown upon the 20-year-old me trying to explain "growth" in life.

Today's topic of discussion is the infamous movie:- DEAR ZINDAGI

In one of the many conversations between Jug and Kaira

Kaira says, "How I wish the whole world could understand this chair theory?"

Jug replied, "Umm. But why? Why is it necessary for the world to understand?"

"If everyone could empathize and understand each other, nobody would judge anyone and what a beautiful world this could be..", Kaira said.

" No, Kaira." ...................jug says

This is growing too...

Along with every Google search and lecture I take people, places, things, incidents, movies, music, and streets as part of my learning. They are an integral part of my growth. Which makes me think that growth is subjective as well as a funny concept.

Recently, I posted a picture on Instagram ( follow @aaryanairr, if you haven't. wink); a glimpse back from the time I visited Jaisalmer for my Second-Year Industrial Visit from College, where I mentioned how "solidity" and "silence" from the Khar Desert gifted my abundance, but what exactly in abundance?

PATIENCE.

How patient must be in the sky to show you a beautiful sunset every day?

How patient is the sand to be escaping from your hands every time you hold it tight?

Is it getting too deep? because I'm just getting started!

Until a few months back, I always thought about how people feel words. I mean to say, understanding the romance from the Chetan Bhagat and Durjoy Dutt books, I get it somehow, but what about those of Rumi? Rupi Kaur? How does one get to that level of intellect? Do you have to be a grown-up for that? Do you need to be that smart of a person? This desperate feeling for understanding everything around me became so strong that it was almost faking itself.

Maturity, Patience, Crossing My Limits to understand the "Psychology of Universe", Blah Blah Blah.

Getting cheated on by my boyfriend three times and yet forgiving and taking him back, because I thought, that would be something a grown-up would do in this situation. People called me foolish, although I thought highly of myself because I always wondered if they actually understood deep feelings and patience in the first place. That is how I thought one becomes poetic in life; but then after every passing day, I realized that it is a lot more than what I did, and a lot more of how I feel today. THAT WAS IT. The aftermath; My first step towards growth.

You're the key to your own growth. One learns a lot by himself, and that too is growing. When my parents teach me things, in a way different from how they learned, that is a step towards self-learning.

Geet is me when somebody tries to give me life gyaan, I totally understand you right now. Remember patience is the key, keep reading.

My go-to line for everything is, "It is necessary to self-learn, but not to rush it."

To just suppress this topic doesn't provide justice, there are 7 billion people in this lonely spinning ball, and that means a minimum of 14 billion perspectives

In a month, I'm going to turn 20. It's still nerve-racking, and my mind is flooded with WH questions, there is so much that I've learned, yet there's a lot more to learn and a lot more to acquire.

Rooting for life every day, and I hope to be a better person for tomorrow. My sucking personality for a career makes me ask millions of people on LinkedIn about their journey and path. How did they grow to be the person that they are today? The only answers I get are like, "Give it time", "Life will set on its own", "Things will fall into place", and "What is meant to be will happen".

It's deep and confusing, but I hope to unravel all of the secrets in life and grow to be a better person.

Vaisebhi Kisi Bade Admi Ne Kaha Hai:-

"BABUMOSHAE ZINDAGI LAMBI NAHI BADI HONI CHAHIYE!"

Until Next time,

XOXO, Aarya.
