A- Adventure

Before we Begin

Before we go ahead, I really wish to share something I am so not happy about… I really wanted to make every wish of mine into illustrations form but since I am a self-taught artist it takes too much time for me to come up with sketches and then make them into digital form.

I am so caught up with so much already + my body is in pain while typing this down and so is my heat broken I have come to the conclusion that I will at least make one illustrations for every post. So the rest of the illustrations I will make once I get time and I am ready with them to share on my Instagram page and other social media platforms too.

But with this challenge it will be at least one illustrations per blog post.

Also, I would love if you’ll comment on my illustrations too. I really put my heart into and need to know if they are really good? (Though I am aware I need some more practice…)

Let’s begin

We live life with so many conditions and rules that we forget what really our heart desires. I have always believed to live our life the way we want to live with of- course taking complete responsibilities of our choices. I am never asked what makes me happy, what is it that I wish to do? But have always been told what to do.

These wish lists are something I hold close to my heart but I also have this fear that I may never able to tick them off, but who cares? Except my heart will always be in pain to see them undone. Some of them I might be able to tick off someday, In Sha Allah and some of them…

Well, I am unsure about them… 🙁

The one thing that I miss in my life the most is being adventurous. The kind of adventure which actually makes me feel scared to do in the first place but just do it because I am also aware that the feeling on the other end is going to be amazing

We take life for granted, and this quarantine phase has surely thought us about it. We are locked in our houses, stuck, still unsure when will things get back to normal, when will we be able to walk fearless on the road and get back to our fast-paced life.

Hopefully when all this gets over, when we finally find a solution to Coronavirus all I want to do is pack my bags and one by one accomplish my wishes. Get adventurous.

But… Life is not that easy.

Most of my further post is all related to this one word, adventure but since I could not fit everything in future posts I am going to mention some of them in this very post and some in next posts.

Scuba-diving:

Even though it’s not something on top of my lists but I had to mention it in my first post because all the major ones are coming in future posts. I know for one thing going down there under the sea is one amazing feeling. I belong to a family who has mostly sailors in it and today if I look back I wish I could also become a sailor and travel the world through sea. Lol! That could be one fantasy wish I could carry with me.

Cycling around the village.

This reminds me of childhood, I used to cycle a lot. When we used to visit my native place during summers there too I used to cycle along with my cousins. So I have this wish to visit some other foreign village be it within India or in some other country and explore the village and places around while I cycle around with my books, pen, camera. Write whatever new I have known along my journey and just enjoy the village and greenery around.

Build a treehouse.

I have this obsession and love for treehouses. I just love to imagine I own one treehouse, between the woods and there is a waterfall that I can see through one of my windows and the other window gives me a view of the sunrise and the mountains… I can hear the birds chirping, the voice of the waterfall and my treehouse smells of yummy coffee and there is a huge library consisting of all the books that I already own and have always wished for. All I can do is write, read in the armchair, wander the woods, and enjoy the beauty around.

This I know its not something related to adventure but don’t you think building a treehouse of your own and staying in it is one adventure in itself.

Some of my wishlists would sound really absurd or childish because some of them are either nearly impossible and some of them are doable and still in my wishlists means you may have the luxury to say oh! that’s something I have done or do every day. But for me, some of them are dreams I hold close to my heart and wish to make them come true somehow, someday.

So I am wrapping it up for the day. Hope you enjoyed it and I would love to know if you have tried any of the above things and please do share your experience I am all here to read and enjoy them…
