Know this: A soulmate is not something you find or acquire.
Soulmate is somebody you make out of a loving person.
Now, that person can be anyone - sibling, friend, colleague, mentor; not only a lover.
And finding the right person needs two key factors:
Self-discovery & self-acceptance.
Self-discovery includes finding yourself.
Make sure you are aware of your needs, your wants, your dreams and your red flags.
Nobody's perfect, therefore, everybody naturally has a few red flags.
You need to find them all in yourself.
Self-acceptance includes knowing all and saying "yes" to them.
Acknowledge all your red flags, flaws, selfish and greedy needs.
Don't go harsh on yourself by trying to change and fit in the world.
Accept that nobody's perfect and you have your own set of imperfections.
Your soulmate will be the perfect combination of all those flaws and red flags that can cancel out yours and make you complete.
Your soulmate can fulfill all your needs and never make you feel bad about your own downsides.
Soulmate is not a miracle.
It's your own reflection in another person who can keep you happy.

People be like: Why do you eat cakes, cookies, chocolates, ice cream and literally anything sweet when you're stressed out?
Me: Because, "STRESSED" spelt backwards says, "DESSERTS!"
Scientific explanation: Our brain needs lots of sugar to function well and help you think. More anxiety and stress makes the brain work harder than normal, which consumes a huge portion of the glucose supply.-
There are nights when you see the full moon in the sky,
And it looks absolutely mesmerizing,
You try to take a picture of it
Just to capture it's beauty.
After you take a picture, you view that in your phone's gallery
And find just a tiny little dot,
In place of the beautiful moon,
Like it's nothing close to what you are seeing or wanted to capture.
So, next time when you come across a picture of yours which you don't like,
Don't think of it as you are not beautiful.
You are beautiful to people.
It's just the picture not doing justice to your beauty.-
Handsome he, cute she
Shy he, talkative she
Protective he, kiddish she
Messy he, organized she
Tall he, short she
Topic he, writer she
The best combination ever π€β€οΈ

Status : We miss each other so much-
Maybe I deserve to be alone,
And that's why people
Always get tired of me
And end up leaving me.
Maybe I deserve all the sorrow,
Because it seems to be
The only solution I have
To all my problems.
Maybe I deserved all the hatred
I have been through my teenage years
And all the words and anxiety
And all the pain it caused me.
And maybe, just maybe
I deserve to die,
Because that's what's always in my mind
And nobody seems to care anyways.-
Just a couple of months later, Harry received a mail from an unknown source. There was a coded message just in between the lines of the formal mail. It said - "Time to get underground." Harry and Shane brought their families to the secret shelter facility and stayed there while the rest of the world suffered a massive interstellar catastrophe. Soon, they were updated with the global news and learnt that the interstellar storm wiped out about 95% of the population on earth. The Ultimati chose to keep them alive.

Robot - "You're working for the Ultimati. We are responsible for everything happening in this world, including what you just saw. Whatever happens, it's planned.'
Shane - "So, the rumours weren't baseless! The world and the phenomenons follow a pre-planned pattern."
Harry - "So if we follow the pattern, another pandemic is at the verge in the next couple of years!"
Robot - "Actually, that's what I was designed for."
Harry - "Why my grandma?"
Robot - "She would die a graceful death and doesn't have to witness the world succumbing to another pandemic after what she went through in her childhood years. We would ensure your and your families' protection as a gift for your dedication in this project. Work for us and we won't let you suffer ever."
Both of them agreed silently when they realised how big and serious is this secret organisation and there's no escape from them. They manipulated natural calamities and controlled global functioning. It's not an organisation, rather a system which regulated worldly affairs. They were sent back to their homes and asked to spend more time with their families to compensate for those three years.

The amount of poverty due to which cholera spread effectively made them realise their vanity by living lavishly. The young electronic scientists had studied much about the infamous Bubonic Plague but this was the first time they witnessed the scenes from the Black Death period. Bad hygiene and even worse pest control could do cause such terror. People wailed in pain and breathlessness while piles of dead bodies accumulated stacked one upon another with blackened swellings on most of their visible skin. The beak-masked doctors walking through the narrow streets looked like haunting ghosts. The gory details horrified both of them. The hologram turned off abruptly.
Harry - "What was that?"
Robot - "A scene from the Great Plague pandemic which occurred almost five hundred years ago."
Shane - "Wait, that was a real-time scene? Did we travel back in time to see that?"
Robot - "Not you, it is me who brought you footage from the past for simulation. The time travel program is not available for anyone outside Ultimati."
Harry - "Ultimati isn't the project name?"
To be continued..-
Harry could see his grandma sitting on the garden bench and knitting while basking under the sun. Shane watched his little sister running towards him with a balloon in her hand. Shane had lost her little sister in a roller coaster ride when the car trail broke down and crashed from a height of 20 metres from the ground killing all the 15 people riding on it. That made Shane emotional. They could see their childhood and their happy family days. Scenes from their graduation days and internship days made them giggle. The robot showed them what they wanted to see. It seemed like a memory recording which was being replayed only the fact that those moments were never recorded in electronic form.
The projection then tuned out with a loud screech and showed them glimpses from the greatest epidemics of the past few centuries. The Spanish Flu which hit the world during the war and the deaths it caused due to lack of medical facilities in the global war situation. The Cholera pandemic which spread amongst most of the Asian countries and the gruesome sufferings from diarrhoea and dehydration sent chills down their spines.
