Talking to Miss. Universe! (POEM)

POEM

You are living in this world, so you’re a part of this Universe.
Your existence is unbridled and unavoidable.
Listen to the sounds of nature; it calls for something all time.
I cannot hear that voice, am I deaf?
Universe is the name of peace, have you experienced?
I’m in a part of world, full of distortions, injustice waves on top.
This is not my creation; I’m Ms. Universe, infallible and unfathomable.
Your inside certainly needs some guidance though!
Is that the case, let them fix it by themselves, I’m busy.
People are not sane to understand your plight, Ms.
They are and they will.
How?
They have to figure this out; God bestowed upon them the intellect.
I’m a human but I can’t think of a better solution to this mess.
You’re human; little is your known conscious.
Then how am I going to fix the inside of yours?
Let it be; you better focus inside yours!
Why so?
Change you want to see comes always from inside.
What can I do to reform my inside?
Listen to the sounds of nature, it has messages in it.
I’m busy solving the riddles of this messy life.
You are sure busy, but not as much as you pretend it to be.
Oh. Ms. Universe, do you talk to God?
Yes, I do all the time.
Ask him to help humans; they’re ignorant of their existence!
God has already given me the answer to your question.
What was the answer, please?
Humans have to figure out the solution.
Is God helpless?
No, he’s the most generous and helpful.
Then, why he doesn’t want to intervene?
God is here to help you only when you ask him for it.
I’m asking for his help.
What about your fellow billions?
I don’t know about them.
Listen, I’m tired of your questions.
I’m just looking for a better life.
Then go help others.
Why?
Many are lost in their journey to the hereafter.
Am I rightly in the correct direction?
It’s you who has to figure this out.
Oh. Universe, I’m lazy, I don’t have time for all this.
Then go sleep have daydreams.
Is it anger?
No, it’s the real you, living at the time.
How come, I’m talking to you?
You’re only here to find ease, not the solution of problems.
I think I better go back and watch YouTube.
You better deserve that.
Was that again a taunt?
I’m Universe, I don’t trade these things.
Alright, I will come back to you again.
Hoping not to see you again, Bye…

Thank you for your company!

Emily Elizabeth Dickenson: The greatest Poet

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all, - And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. - I’ve heard it in the chilliest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me. In the thorns, we found strength and in flowers we found pain. That is the situation you caught in when you read the lines of Emily Dickenson. The finest poet of the 19 th century enlightened with the figments of death and immortality in her words. Emily is a great American poet and deserves to be known across the globe for her art. Her writing had brought her to a point where there was no fear to be afraid of. Not even her death. America at that time was facing some identity challenges as women were yet to be emancipated from their Kitchens and there were no vote ri...

What is a Wasteman Loop & How to avoid it?

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science What is a wasteman Loop? For the past few days, I have been doing a lot of social media surfacing without realizing the effects of it on my productive life. I was so indulged in social media scrolling, liking, and sharing weird cat posts that I never realized I was wasting more than 4 hours per day of my precious life. Being into some business where there is no return value or profit is what I call a wasteman loop. Every once in a while I return to this wasteman life and I have to push myself again to keep focused on the main objectives in life. This on and off productivity is what I call the loop. I’m constantly worried about two things to happen in my life, first, when I start wasting my time on social media or any other stuff that adds zero value to my life, second, the continuous fight with consistency to not return to wasteman life and still end up becoming the wasteman I loathe. How does it affect your productivity? Being a wasteman has...

Welcome 2022 with these Five new Habits

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science Time flies like a storm. In two weeks we would be bidding farewell to 2021. To be honest, there is no special feeling about the change of the year. It would be just another day in the life. You probably would be doing the same work on 1 st January 2022 like you were busy doing on 31 st of December, 2021. Science suggests that having new goals and targets surely have an impact on life. Purpose gives reason to wake up earlier and start doing the work passionately. Jordan B. Peterson thinks that life without a formal schedule is a mess. You need to have proper planning in life. So if you missed doing any experiment with your life and want to improve productivity, this New Year's eve is the best chance to do it. Following are the five habits you should immediately start working on as you enter New Year: 1. Read Books No matter how voraciously you were reading books previously. Start again.
