The Spark

Attention, care and affection; we spend all of our lives looking for those three things. Some of us are lucky enough to find them, others think that they already got them, but most of us strive to get a glimpse of any of those traits.

We sometimes meet people who might show the greatest interest in knowing us and getting much closer, but unluckily we don't believe that there is much chemistry. We decide to move on and keep on looking for that One who will make it all happen. We search for that person whom we can call a soul-mate. We try hardly to find that single unique person, among those millions of people all around us, who will provide us with the personal satisfaction we aim for.

But what is it exactly that drives us away from people who might see us in a different color? What is it that puts us off such individuals who might support us and provide us with "attention", "care" and "affection" that we look for in the first place? Isn't it enough? Isn't it what we want?

Well, I guess that within each one of us, there is this hidden trait that not everyone realizes not even ourselves. There is this one of a kind characteristic that only one single person can bring it to the surface. It is the Spark that the One will instill in each one of us and make us realize how superb we really are.

For me, it is not attention, care or affection that makes us crave finding our soul-mate. It is realizing our hidden forgotten beauty that only one person can bring to the surface.

Well, It Says It All

A friend of mine has advised me to write some impersonal stuff. In her opinion, I might get some followers so that my blog will be popular. I thought about that for a while. "She's damn right," I thought for a short while, then I signed in to my blog right away and stared at the page for a while trying to get some fresh new ideas to write about. I was looking for something "impersonal" and more commercial more or less. I was looking for something like all of those many articles that are found everywhere online with very flashy titles without any particular flavor or a a distinctive style. There are very good blogs by very talented writers and journalists, but I am talking about the common trend.

Then, it hit me, "What am I thinking?" That's when I read the title of the blog "Talks from the Heart". It is supposed to be personal anyway. It is from the heart. If you are looking for any kind of articles, you can find them anywhere and the way they suit perfectly your taste. But, here, this is my own space.

I have to admit that I write about personal experiences and gatherings with my friends. I believe that some people, who barely know me, can figure out what I actually mean by reading any of the posts. Others can relate themselves to some of the posts.

Even if I will discuss politics, which I cannot stand by any means, I will discuss it my "too personal" way.

Yes, I want people to read my stuff. That is why I am publishing it online, yet I don't think that changing my style is the way out.

So, if you want to read any of the posts, be my guest. The title says it all.
