Lives in a Different World

A small airport with minimal.
Roads with traffic busting in congestion.
Traffic lights disregarded by many.
Lives of people pace on.


Vegetation on pieces of land.
Various fruit plants scattered along.
The sight of red land, rich in minerals.
Lives of people strive on.


The lack of proper infrastructure.
The slums as main housing for many.
Jobs of any to self provide a living.
Lives of people go on.


The lives of children as adults.

The lives of simplicity as happiness.

The lives of poor in richness.

The Lives in a Different World.

Style and Individuality

Style is defined as - A quality of imagination and individuality expressed in one's actions and tastes.

Individuality is defined as - The aggregate of qualities and characteristics that distinguish one person or thing from others.

I expressed my views on this few years ago and pretty recent this year. However, what really pricked me was seeing it happening again, slowly but with confirmations that I was not too sensitive.

I am not saying that I set trends in my world. I wear what I feel most comfortable in and what brings the most out of me. Taking my own style along with my individuality. It is me. Those who know me, can roughly guess what I normally wear. From my casuals to party wear. There are a few brands that I am totally into and I take them along all these years. What is in fashion may not be suitable for you and I. They can be regarded as references to be updated somehow. However, the style that you owned is who you are. We may like the same things, even buy the same piece of thing, however, the individuality remains.

I should spare the details as it can be rather sensitive. I just feel that my style has been carbonised and reflected like a mirror image, right there in front of me. I cannot make a statement to say it was CC. After all, everyone has a right to dress the way they want.

My only consolation is that an individual carries their own statement. Though carbonised, the other hardly brings it out, it does not belong and match. Am I saying all these just to comfort self? It does not fit that style and individuality of the other.

I hope you guys out there are not experiencing what I have been. If you are, I totally understand that stir of feelings and imbalance of emotions.

Style and individuality, is yours truly.
