#light

"It's startling how shadows can tell stories",
once you said to me nonchalantly.

Maybe that is why
I do not let the light in anymore.

Dear Writers

Soon, as the night takes over us, we will leave 2017 behind and enter 2018. Make 2018 the year when you finally rise above the myst, and be the you, you have always wanted to be.

Dear Writers,

Happy Diwali. There are special Diwali wallpapers in the store. Do check.

1. Word of the day is LIGHT. Write an original story or poem or one-liner with the word and create something good.

2. Free Writing Challenge: Wherever you are, just stop doing whatever you're doing and start observing what's around you. Write about it. The surroundings. The colors that you see. The objects, how they appear. People, if any. How do you know them. Talk about ordinary things. Like if your phone has a lamination or not. When did you get it? Does it have cracks or scratches? How much do you care about it? Write about everything around you.

tied with the
warm breath of yours

the mixed emotions
you left my heart to ache.

Who needs the
Dark ambience
Of the night
When nightmares
Can collapse you
In broad daylight?

Dear Writers,

You were awesome with yesterday's word, Smoke.

1. Word of the day is LIGHT. Light your poem or one-liner with it and ignite our minds.

2. Fill in the blank: The traffic was stuck. I was in my car and _______.

Grammar tip: It's anyway, not anyways. Anyway stands for anyhow. Much like anyhows is wrong, so is anyways. Avoid it.

We keep chasing the light only to realize we love the dark.

Diwali lights
On every house.
One remained
Lightless.
People thought it was
abandoned,
Little did they know
Death already came there
as a guest.

Before joining YourQuote, I was surrounded by darkness.
But the kind of love I received on YQ, all that darkness has now been converted into light and positivity.
The best people in your life come unexpectedly and that's what all YQtians are to me. Thanks a lot for all the love and positivity.

Spread love. Spread happiness. Stay blessed.
Happy Diwali.
Cheers !

At 18,
Left home to struggle and become an actor.

At 28,
Returned home on Diwali, light from Diyas
felt better than any spotlight.
