3 bads in this blog/Changes i wish would happen/Suggestions for improvement.

* The Blog title. Charcoal Scratch is a good idea.But i never liked the Phrase My brain Farts.
Ever since i have been reading this blog,i have always wondered, why someone who is such an insightful and intelligent writer, would name her blog like this. *Sigh*
* The blog Template and outlook. I had the same blog template for my personal blog My musings,hence i like it but also am aware of its shortcomings.Another thing to note here is that
the overall blog presentation is not complimenting the posts, written.
* Again the Layout thing. Labels should have been put up.The Side bar widgets or gadgets could have been put, so the blog doesn't give this sparse look.

We're heading for Venus (Venus) and still we stand tall
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
With so many light years to go and things to be found (to be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.

Tshhar, I am flattered :)

Thankyou So much for such a detailed description. I'm a little busy but i've changing the temples and adding widgets to the blog in my resolution list.

As far as the name is concern, erm! well.. i usually rant about stuff (Which i donot post here) So, when I made it i thought I will be posting rambles and whines here, hence the Brain Farts .. but it came out nice and I actually did manage writing something which was *not Bad*. I might change the name if i come up with a better one inshAllah :)

Thankyou once again, for the wish and this indeed is a lovely gift :)

Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf

Why does Mrs Dalloway still speak to you after a hundred years? A human reading of Virginia Woolf’s novel A reflective and thoughtful review of Mrs Dalloway that explores why Virginia Woolf’s modernist classic continues to resonate. From memory and mental health to love, regret, and time, this article examines characters, themes, context, and craft while questioning whether the novel still challenges and comforts today’s reader. Why does a novel about one ordinary day linger in your mind for years? This long form review of Mrs Dalloway explores through its quiet power. You will find analysis, critique, history, and personal reflection on why this book continues to unsettle and comfort readers alike. Can a single ordinary day hold an entire life? Have you ever reached the end of a day and wondered where it went, and more unsettlingly, where you went within it?

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...
