Help Abuse




Do you see a 'Tree' formation among the trees? 
It's a bottom angle shot of a circumvent of trees, as the sunlight shines through the spaces between them.
Leaving behind a beautiful light penetration.
It's called the ''Crown Shyness''. Why Crown Shyness? Because their crowning leaves are said to be ''shy'' that they leave gaps between them, forming a cracked frontier. 



So I went for hiking a couple of days ago, after almost two years. This picture right here was captured in the middle of the thick forest I trekked through. 


Before this disengagement period of two years, hiking, camping and trekking use to be my all time favourite to-do's! The feel of bouncing your joints to leap from a higher ground to lower, having your thigh muscles to contract each time you force your body up a huge rock, the grip of your palms on the tree branches for support as your little biceps bulge, to loose your feet balance as you swift over the slippery ground and to sweat bullets of salty water that dribbles off your head is priceless! Especially after hours which sometimes takes up to five or six hours of continuous trekking gives you an indescribable satisfaction.


It reflects how the finishing line doesn't come by just moving five facile steps forward, but it takes bruises and pains as you kick on hard rocks, step on thorns and slip on wet grounds. Painful two years it was, my mind and soul were impoverished. A helpless soul smothering in an effortless body. But now, I'm glad to say, I'm back, with a bang. I mean, BANGS AND FANGS, not the Cullens definitely.


''You'll never walk alone''- Liverpool. Nah, I'm not a fan of them. But this quote of their's does tickle a realization. None of us can walk alone. 


Minutes, hours, days, soon or later, having a pair of hands is just not enough, you might just want another pair to aid you through your hard days. Some or rather, we have a concealed bond with every other person around us. I've always believed that if we have nasty people around us, it's because of the noxious deeds we've done, if we have well wishers around us, it's because of the good we've done. Simple, but believe it or not. Karma's a cycle, it goes on and on, until you pay back every single penny you've invested.







We're all related, somehow and somewhere.

Lend hands, and accept hands. Reach out for those who're need in help, settling them down in a space where they're secure, brings no harm to you. Pick out the thorns from their feet and one day they might just pick out the thorns from yours. I've always believed that if we ignore someone who is in desperate help, there'll be one day we'll be screaming our lungs out for help, and not even one person will tilt their head to look out for us.

The world is a cruel place, girls get raped by their own flesh and blood, friends may set you up, infidelity happens within the circle of acquaintance, where kids get abused and trafficked across the globe, and child bearers are utilised for prostitution. 

Being the good one, sucking up to everyone's requests and putting their priorities above yours   would just plunge you down the horizons. More than appreciating you, they would merely use you for their benefit. Selfish people are like parasites. They feed on you for their own benefit, but they care less of your existence. So when you help the wrong people, you tend to fall in your own trap, and find yourself being absolutely miserable. I've done that, been there, regretted and promised myself not to be a dumbo anymore. 

Know everyone, don't help anybody, help some. 

For some, you'll be just a disposable item. You'll helpful at one point of time and the next moment, you're discarded in the bin. Help those who're worth the effort.

Trust me, the world is a sick place.
