The Beauty of Gratitude in a world full of Cynicism
The beauty of gratitude in a world full of cynicism Ever acquainted with the phrase that the world that you exist in, the life that you embody dwells in the perception of the stance you hold for yourself. The beauty and the tragedy of life is that it is as beautiful as the optimistic lens of perception and as ugly as the pessimistic view of your being. The strive of our endeavours and the constant effort to achieve the next massive milestone often drive us to the edges of insanity, to be in the consistent light of greatness we lose sight of the great strings of joy that bind our existence together. To be the best we have ever been we must be mindful of the best we are. Coinciding in the traps of negativity and yet claiming to be the best version of yourself is a blinding truth that lies to only you. Acceptance of what was and what is the only path that will lead you to what it is that you are meant to be.

Ocean refuses no river
Its told that the river usually quivers before it joins the ocean. She slows down as it nears the end. Witnessing something infinite do shake her for once. Maybe due a fear of something unknown or being lost in a vast sea. The fear of losing the familiar shore, and embracing uncertainty. In the cocoon of the comfort zone, a fear of change seizes her, like roots overgrown . The fear of an uncharted space like a novel world where you have no deadens and all you can see is the horizon. Now, deep inside she knew if she would move forward, it would risk her own existence. That's when the realization hits you that at the end of every journey may not be a destination we dreamt. And that's why its told that every story is about the journey and not just the destination itself. So we cherish the journey, for it's in the wandering, we find our grace. The beauty of travel, in every mile is an adventure, in the river's smile.

Make Your Characters Believable, Make Them Quirky
How do you make your characters believable? Whether you write plot-driven novels or character-driven ones, your characters need to seem natural and human. They are the foundation of any great novel.

But that may not be enough to truly bring your character to life. If you want your character to resonate with your readers, make them quirky.
