venez father would tell him that son I
don’t understand your race has read
shuns good answer by telling him that we
were not cut off the same cloth chums of
Tabriz already knew that no matter how
much he loved his parents and craved for
their affection there would be strangers
to him and his mystical ways he already
knew that he had a different path to
walk on and that his language and that
of his father were as different as
Russian or Japanese he already knew that
he was destined to leave the
conventional ways of life and discover
his own and after all self-realization
and awareness at a young age makes him
bad in a lot of things and relationships
and I think that’s where I come in
I left my house in 2015
September and according to the articles
you must have read about me I left on my
parents kicked me out because they were
unsupported with the fact that I wanted
to pursue arts in travel true but just
like shams I already knew which path I
had to choose I wanted to go out there
and push in my own beliefs and limits I
wanted to see what the universe had to
I wanted to go out there and see what
the universe had to offer me
I wanted to question my own beliefs and
limits I wanted to experience that idea
of home that I lived in my head and so I
started changing homes and cities one by
one
Chandigarh Jaipur Delhi Ahmedabad Bombay
Hyderabad Bangalore Sikkim and now
endure but home home this is where I
live right now a simple place right no
furniture no a/c but a nice window and a
balcony is that’s what I need to survive
so this is where I live and meditate but
now this is where my heart lifts me
lying IVA my cats so for me right now
home is not coming back to the place but
coming back to my cats and that’s that’s
it I think that’s what I have understood
that I think we find a home in
everything that we feel deeply connected
when we were young we used to create a
playhouse out of cardboard boxes and
cushions and bed sheets inside our own
house now I wonder why we have always
been this way we think we used to feel
that the Playhouse used to keep us safe
as if like the owner territory we used
to ask for password from others before
letting them in you should decorate it
with fairy lights and keep all our
secret stuff inside I think all our life
we look for people and places that keep
our secret safe
so is home safety a lot of people DM and
Mail me with a desire telling me the
desire they didn’t want to leave home
surprisingly reading that is the
solution today every problem after
leaving the concrete structure deck I
used to stay in I realized that
everybody is going to they will struggle
and no pain is greater or less I want to
see what is home to be good and for that
I ask people with anything designing a
bigger boat then your view is one yes it
is
so is it that so what are you designing
in this bigger wardrobe definitely nah
power nature enter him a flaw is
indifference you remember from home
because you don’t receive the amount of
desire you juanita efficient
removal of the enter names of power is
compromised
you know the length of the time somebody
has asked you to do you know one so
video decreases for you but what you
beer what do you need so you’re gonna
make a move to Miami you move for the
power the Internet of nature its
captivity and the interview if it’s
neglect always why this tree was just a
all range so it became a Gordon
responsible for your success and failure
so you don’t have a from a home to find
a new home well God rule number four
