[14] I have no time.

That’s the biggest excuse we give us, our emotional response to our inability to do a certain task is I have no time. Maintaining this blog every day will take about 30 minutes to think about the topic (If I am going for a detailed post), 20 minutes to write, 5 minutes to edit and…

[12] Suspension of Belief
![[12] Suspension of Belief](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/12.jpeg)
Everything depends on the preparation…. or does it? I am in the process of making a short film and have completed the principal photography and I will soon start the post-production of the same. I wanted to talk about the problems I faced during the shoot and how control is just an illusion in film-making.…

[11] Illness and its grip on you
A disease stricken mind can’t function at its fullest potential but if you stay idle you are letting it overpower you. Have you tried hard enough to work your mind in 102 degrees temperature that you are radiating? Illness forms a grip on you when you let it. The best way to at least make…

To add to the New Year cheers our college decided to take us to Adlabs Imagica for a day filled with a mixture of entertainment and an informative experience. We reached Adlabs situated on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway after a bumpy bus ride. The coordinators fulfilled the formalities to get us in, and we were…

[7] Thread and the needle.
When I was a child, my favourite pastime was playing with toy cars with my grandma. I used to wait for her to finish the work she did throughout the day and sit on the bed, waiting for her to come. The cars were always ready. I put them in order for her to choose…

[6] I don’t know.
How much do you believe your role model? How much do you believe the philosophers that walked on this planet? How much do you believe anyone who says anything? Every word I spew, write, slice, reflect, shoot on this page is a manifestation of the experience of my tiny existence. And our experience is limited?…

[5] Who am I?
![[5] Who am I?](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/who-am-i.jpeg)
I am “….partly truth, partly fiction. A walking contradiction.” It is difficult to know yourself, the real true self. If you shed your skin, underneath you’ll find another layer and then another. How do you climb down to the deepest holes to find one’s true self? First, there is a possibility that you will weep…

[4] Regret.
![[4] Regret.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/regret.jpg)
You’re on your deathbed staring at the faces that stand beside you but your thoughts meander towards an imagined reality of what it could have been only if I did that. If becomes the starting word of every thought that you take. If only I would have said yes to that girl. If only I would…

[3]Thoughts on thoughts.
…With every passing day, I discover new things about myself, others, about the world. How can we store the sudden bursts of thoughts we have? How do we find a way to recall that same emotion that we felt when we first had thought and with the same intensity? …My resilience was in sync with…

[2] Atlanta.

Donald Glover, the multi-talented creator of the show “Atlanta” has knocked my brains out with his TV series. It has captured my mind like none and it’s done in less than 30 minutes. The mixture of the real and the surreal, focussing on the tone, and the characters impeccable comic timing makes it stand apart.…

[1] Clarity.
Clarity is what I seek. To listen to my thoughts and know that every word that springs up in my stream of consciousness, it is there for a reason. A normal day in my life looks like an organised mess. Organised because I know that I have to wake up every day, go to college,…
