[186] Mindful Days
![[186] Mindful Days](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/186.jpg)
When it feels like present with no weight of the past or the worry of the future it was under the shade of a tree with your hand in mine when you called me mine When it feels like present when I slept in your arms it was a night’s sleep with no dreams even…

[168] We’re Alone Together
![[168] We’re Alone Together](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/168.jpg)
Usually our love is lost in the cold looks and the silences with rain unifying our sanity but this day our vision lost its clarity and we didn’t let the rain talk as we spoke over each other losing touch with brevity Stuck in our past ways Held by the present Falsely accusing the future…

[164] Ignorance Lives
![[164] Ignorance Lives](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/164.jpg)
I need something to worry about to cancel out how peaceful I’ve been feeling for a while a peace that i craved but which only brought a feeling of uselessness and a twisted sense of wanting drama with a fading memory of the pain that I’ve conquered through time It’s a complex thought of needing…

[158] Dreams of Sleeping

Silence is threatened when disruption becomes eternal The sunshine wanes and the clouds warn of thunder Although it’s only a warning You react as if it is happening As if the gods have descended on this hell as a form of last resort This city looks like hell then you turn and its heaven The…

[155] A Waking Dream
![[155] A Waking Dream](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/155-e1527191833412.jpg)
I erode my being to get out of my mind The physical sensation of emptiness coupled with the confirmation of being alive the paradox of which is enough to take up all the space in my mind as what bothered me is without me now All I care about is this small little world where…

[150] A Strange Look of Knowing
![[150] A Strange Look of Knowing](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/150.jpg)
I let strangers remain strangers Our conversation limited only by our eyes For a second they hold the future but only to break away as we see somewhere else How many potential losses sacrificed How many potential lovers avoided How many stories remained uncovered How many conversations silenced We return to our groups Some bored…

[149] The Future Waits For None
![[149] The Future Waits For None](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/149.jpeg)
As I sit here, a realisation dawns on me. The world nods in confirmation of my fear that it doesn’t really require me as it runs without me unabashedly. This doesn’t come as a surprise at all but it comes like that strong gust of wind that uproots even the most rooted grass from the…

[148] Solo Travelling
![[148] Solo Travelling](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/1481.jpg)
A snow-capped summit that evades you. You are filled with fear of the distance, of the journey that is unknown. Sounds that you’ve never heard conjure and hijack your senses packing your ambitions behind fear. One day you wake up remembering why you dreamt at all. The morning motivation coupled with no external stimuli of…

[127] Life: A Parody
![[127] Life: A Parody](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/whirlwind-lovers.jpg)
Aren’t we all just parodies of our true selves? Trying to feign reality but only becoming an amusement in return. We are always striving for the illusory knowledge of ourselves but all we find is an illusory illusion which breaks when we probe further. Where does the answer to the quest of our journey lie?…

Do we produce work just to keep busy? The act of doing puts us into a trance of forgetfulness of our inabilities to actually produce a work that challenges the current thinking and has the ability to stand the test of time. This is masked by the illusion of improvement which journey to reach a level.…

[86] Travel and Writing.
![[86] Travel and Writing.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/travel-hypocrisy.jpeg)
To travel is losing oneself in an environment quite larger than you. You realise how small you are in the grand scheme of things. That you still have a long way to go and that your way is paved with unfamiliar faces racing past you in a whisker. To travel is to find no time…

[70] A Guide For Forgetting Happiness.
![[70] A Guide For Forgetting Happiness.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/salvador.jpg)
To let monotony tire my heart I wake up. Instead, my existence is tired. A search for meaning compels me to pick up worry, confusion, frustration on the way. At last, the meaning arrives in the form of a lie My grey drizzly day ends with the quiet of my mind It’s funny how sleeping…

One thing I’ve learned directing my second short film is that management of the crew, actors and the DOP is essential for creating life on screen as desired by you. I’ve only looked at directing from a skewed perspective of it being a creative desire to infuse life into 24 frames a second. Never have I…

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…
