Veronika Decides to Die: A Review for the MADNESS
Veronika Decides to Die Author: Paulo Coelho “If one day I could get out of here, I would allow myself to be crazy. Everyone is indeed crazy, but the craziest are the ones who don’t know they’re crazy; they just keep repeating what others tell them to.” The fundamental question that the author puts forth on is what madness actually is. We all seem to have ideas on what madness is, but Coelho’s book provides an answer which we all know but have a kind of fear or hesitation to implement it. But yes, what is madness? Creating our own world and choosing to live in it, without concern about other things that do not matter. That what madness is. […]

GLORY and LOVELINESS
GLORY AND LOVELINESS To Someone on their birthday… I am going to post here a poem I wrote few months back. It was written for the occasion but never fulfilled what it was determined to do. I hope you’ll enjoy it. In the land far away, On an island, I sat by With a bottle of ale, And the fair memories of the day before.

There were nymphs, And being young, being gay, Roses and […]
