High School day was music to the ears... after graduating I finally forgot about the past and debuted myself as a Normal Student, if you're curious about my past, there's no helping it if you beg for it ... In the way, I was just a musclebrain, I would always take on any challenge but that changed now. The reason is quite simple and harsh to accept I never once won against those two and always demanded something out of me without thinking about my feelings, but right now I'm going to change and study till I forget the pain I felt.

Fiction, fantasy, contemporary, and a mix of emotions. This is a collection of short stories I've written over the years to help improve my writing. Some of these range from sad to happier. Most deal with growth. I also threw in a few silly ones so it didn't get too sad, but be aware that these do contain gore, violence at times, suicide, grief, and a few others that I might have missed. Some of them are original works, and some are from contests or Reedsy prompts.

Like "body shaming " and "shame of failure " Age Shaming also effects a person very badly.Age shaming means making fun of a person because of their age . AS we all observed people in their late 60's and early 70's experience more of this problem .because their idea's are denied ,people often think they are unable to work ,their ideas are shrinking so and so. But the thing is not everyone are lucky enough to enjoy things when they were youngsters ,due to many circumstances they may not get chance to fulfill their wishes and most of our 20's are gone by learning life lessons ,so many actually get their "me time " in their 50's. Let the seeniors enjoy their free time without any guilt or inferiority complex .let them wear whatever they want .now a days it's really good to see that many people are willing to pursue their higher education once they hit their 50's. I read somewhere that a Bollywood actress waheeda rehman became wild life photographer in her 90's ,setting an good example to many .life doesn't stop until we die ,so if health and brain co operates miracles can happen anytime . By age shaming we are snatching the mental peace and confidence of seenior guys which is not at all fair .seeniors needs more love ,care and support .The impact of age shaming includes social isolation ,affecting mental health . So let's be more kind and compassionate towards elders ,because eventually everyone will get there too :)

An aging father confronts his life's greatest failure. It wasn't a lack of luxury or success he provided his children, but an excess of it. He gave them everything they wanted and nothing they needed, sculpting them into anxious participants of a meaningless race. Now, watching his daughter inhabit a life of polished emptiness, he is crushed by the weight of his legacy: teaching them to value a material world built on fear, instead of the profound reality of family, community, and simple contentment. This is a heart-wrenching story of regret and a fragile, hopeful attempt to lead them back to what is real.
