Happiness Archives — The Honest Fabler

Dance

14th July 201814th July 2018 By Radhika Ravindra20 Comments

I dance to the rhythm of melodic hymns Feeling every movement of my body grasp the beat I whirl with grace to express happiness And swing with steadiness to portray misery. I perform, I breathe, I feel my pain disappear Spurging out my feelings in the most beautiful manner Balloons of ecstasy exploding in my heart Whirling, Twirling and sorting my worries apart. I tap my feet and jump and prance Grooving my shoulders to the music and dance I spin with my toes glued to the ground While cold air envelopes me as I roll around. It's like an escape from the real world Letting a sense of euphoria unfurl As I feel it in my flesh and bones That sends my soul into an amusement zone. I throw my hands up in the air Shake my head and close my eyes Twerk my hips or pout my lips Sending every part of my body into an astounding bliss. With Fire in the heart And Sparkle in my eyes Grace in the arms And dynamism in my legs. Pleasure in the mind Electricity in...

Writers are Paranoid

20th August 20176th May 2018 By Ashutosh Gursale8 Comments

Pre-Script: We, writers, may be well known and respected for portraying our thoughts in words but there are few secrets that every writer keeps to himself. Now, I may be exaggerating but these are my worst fears and to be honest each of it is a byproduct of paranoia. (more…)...

Captioning Photographs – part 2

20th July 20176th May 2018 By Ashutosh Gursale6 Comments

Good morning readers! I hope you're all doing well and are happy in your lives. ^-^ Captioning Photographs has been the first post where I actually started with photography on the blog! Ever since I posted it, I've took up photography myself! Yes, you heard it right. xD As a result I've had many captions and Photohraphs to flaunt! Check my gallery at @framesandfables, if you haven't already. Here, I'm showcasing a few of my favorite pictures and the captions along with them. The captions are generally a quote the frame liberated my mind with or a fictional story about me getting the snap. So put on your judgemental glasses and tell me all about the faults in these. (If you find any thing good, I'll be glad to know :P) Model of phone | Moto G4+ | and edited on | Lightroom | Tears of skies.

Moonshine Mystery

17th July 2017 By Ashutosh Gursale6 Comments

Brock and Ms. Moonshine On the moonlit road, I held my umbrella trying to stay as dry as I could get. Ironically, the lady who bumped my shoulder didn't seem to have the same intentions. The rain started to recede and I could feel the weightless droplets fall on her messy hair. "I'm sorry. I didn't see you coming." She excused, pointing above towards darkness. It took me a while to realize it was a streetlight. I couldn't see her. Except for the smooth edges of her face that faintly reflected the moon's light. But I swear she was pretty. Her voice vibrantly screamed her prettiness. "It's okay. Catch your breath, don't rush so much." I stumbled, strangers weren't my favorite people to communicate with. "Yes, thank you for caring about me so much. I wonder what a stupid job they're doing at keeping up with the weather, I mean, how can they let a blackout stay for so long. Especially at this odd...

Invigorate thy soul

16th July 2017 By Ashutosh Gursale3 Comments

From one soul to another. Every person fights a battle. A battle fought for a reason you'll never know. A battle whose victor you'll never predict. But one thing I tell you: This battle is the sole reason that makes a person the way they are. You remember that happy guy you always see across the hallway? Maybe he's still fighting his war and losing. Yet the reason he's happy could be his will to be strong, the only thing that keeps him going. Or maybe he has finished his wars and came out victorious. But how ironic that you'll never know since you couldn't go up to him and ask, "How are you?" Rather than staring at him from a distance. For another instance, have a look at that other girl who goes unnoticed. You wonder why she's quiet? Because her friends are more popular than she is. Because you didn't care enough to look past her friends and ask her how her day was or even, where...

Complete parts: Author’s Note (Password: sister) I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX 29 December 2018 Dear Scarlett, Punim and I have a pet of our own! Hey big sister, this year I gifted Punim something she wanted since a long time. That is a goldfish! Once while we talked about pets, I remember she mentioned how beautiful she thought fishes are. She went on describing their minuscule features with the most excited expression I had ever seen and that was it. I decided back then that I’ll give her a fish. As expected she loved it! My semester exams are over and I’ve been enjoying life ever since the day! Dad sent me a brand new Mac Air Book just today! It’s been a challenge for me to keep it aside and to write you a letter!

Complete parts: Author’s Note (Password: sister) I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX 1 June 2018 Dear Scarlett, My anxiousness is growing day by day. I’m awaiting the results too badly. Oh when will I be freed of this tension now? This morning I completed my 8th novel of the week, and it’s just Friday today. At least I’m a little less tensed compared to the first year. The happiness was great, though! I had got 8.3. Mum dad were so happy. I have no idea about this year, in spite of studying hard I’m unsure how my result will turn out. I need to release some tension, I’m going to smoke pot tonight. Naveen and Azure are in the same jam as me and they agreed too. Have a great time, di! Don’t worry much about me I’ll be fine. And shush! Punim or Snehlata doesn’t know about this. See ya soon. 9 June 2018 Dear Scarlett, My eyes are dried out, nose is jammed and I can barely make out what I’m writing....

Master of Death — Story behind something huge.

10th July 2017 By Ashutosh Gursale5 Comments

Becoming the Master of Death. If you're a Harry Potter fan, then brace yourself and skip the next few paragraphs.(You can still read the quoted story to get nostalgic.) But in case you're a muggle, I'm sorry but you'll have to read the next few paragraphs to really get the depth of what I'm about to reveal. Have you seen the symbol before? If your answer's yes, then skip to the quoted story. If no: Popularly known as "The Deathly Hallows". Rooted from the Wizardry World presented to muggles(humans) by J.K Rowling. The symbol is a representation of the three gifts given by Death, itself, to three brothers.(Don't worry you'll understand everything in the story.) The triangle is the Invisibility Cloak. The in-circle is the Resurrection Stone. The median is the Elder Wand. Do you know what they really mean? If your answer's yes, then why the heck are you wasting your time reading this? I told you to skip to the QUOTED STORY. You're still...

Another award, Yay! First off, how have y'all been? Blogging daily has slipped out of my routine, apparently, so make up to it— I've decided to keep blogging for next 21 days in ANYWAY possible! Why 21 days? Because I believe doing something for 21 days is enough to develop that particular thing as a habit. Let's see what happens next. sigh Now, let's start what you're here for! The Unique Blogger Award I've been nominated by the Aesthetic blogger- Riya Rajayyan from AestheticGraphy.

Don't miss any of them!) THE RULES: Share the...
