"Who sees the human face correctly : The photographer, the mirror or the painter?

Saw this quote while randomly scrolling through the endless world of social media and oh, how well it got imprinted on my mind. That sudden urge in me to write all about it, like a story. So, here we go.

The Photographer :

A Photographer is someone who captures just the moments, he captures the place you're right there in, but he can't see your wandered off mind or your broken heart, bleeding scars or even the extent of reality in your smile. It just captures what you show him, at that instant of the clicking shutter sound. You're smiling, eyes taking up the crescent moon shape, head tilted on one side with your hair effortlessly adding wonders to the photograph. But, everytime you look back at it, you will miss the moment you were in, or the people you were with. You won't sit back to give a thought of what was fake in the memoir, you'll only and only live for and in the memories.

The photographer, hence sees what you show him, he sees the moments a human was in, not what the moment made a human feel.

The Mirror:

That glass piece you decorated with the dried flowers and the ribbons you got on your gift boxes, hung it in that corner of the room with the best lighting seen, that glass piece, your mirror has seen the worst faces of yours, the best outfits but the ugliest of cries. Even if it's present in a corner, it sees what you hide in the horrors of your room. It sees the way you were trying to hide something — a Scar. The scar you got while fighting the demons in the back of your head. It sees how you give up every night, but the next minute you get up to make it work. It sees how you get all wrapped up with the prettiest outfit of your wardrobe yet all in your mind is that one scar. It sees the process of you crying, but lowering your voice so that no one in the outside world knows that even your dreams are scarier than reality. It has seen multiple sleepless nights of yours, roaming around, grooving to music, trying to make the least of the noise while enjoying your own company in peace. But it has also seen you shedding tears because the nightmare you had felt real and that you are unaware of what's true and false at one point.

The mirror, your favourite glass piece in that corner, has seen you falling, growing, crying, fighting to hide the scar until finally embracing it as your identity, and at last never giving up on this thing called Life.

The Painter :

The artists — They look through artsy eyes at the things which are meaningless to you. They use brush strokes and hues of rainbow to create a magical universe of their own. The room of horrors you had, gets turned into a magical blue orchids' garden on a white canvas, just with some brushes, a colour palette and the lenses of 'Art.' The painter sees beauty in your scars, how it has a shade lighter than your skin tone and how it outshines every single time. How that one scar you keep hiding from the outsiders is the first thing they point at while looking at the 'Art'.

They're all mesmerized by the beauty of your glistening eyes full of tears, the shades of your scars, uncovered yet beautiful, looking like it defines how far you made it. And even if, romanticising everything isn't the only solution, the idea of 'Art' is the classic. The strokes of uneven lines along with the blending of oil pastels, brings the best out of what you hated looking at in the glass piece of your room.

Despite your thoughts of giving up, an 'Art' defines continuity, the colours other than monochrome breaking the monotonous tone of life, the soft strokes of brush around your scars like a warm hug engulfing you. The painter romanticizes realities, merging it all with the eyes of creativity and the world of dreams.

He makes an 'Art' loved by everyone, with the only flaw that the Human in the Art is the least loved by all.

That moment when you’re hit by the hardest second hand embarrassment from a book character that you have to suppress the urge to scream by closing the book and taking in large deep breaths.

I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5

I listened to the audio book read by Jeanette herself which made it all that more heartbreaking. This book as heartbreaking as it is was so wonderfully written and read. The book has a lot of trauma within it with family and Hollywood and truly there isn't a dull moment.

Ps I'm not your mom research your own triggers before reading.

Synopsis: Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.

In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.

Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

Me: Yeah my self insert characters are jumping straight into actiong? Refusal of the Call who?

Me if I ever was the MC of a book/show: Ehh... Seems like a lot of work, and I have school and I refuse to lose my position as TA because I was absent. And it seems like I might get into danger? I don't like danger, so it won't work. Anxiety. Also, I hate forests. And camping.

In the “men” of my life, I've seen standards being raised ; matching up to the ones that other girls label as “book boyfriends” ~

Part 1 ::

Every time I fall asleep with the lights on, or even the fan on at a speed higher than what is apt for the weather for me, I wake up the next morning with a blanket on, with the fan slightly slow and lights off. And I just know instantly, my dad walked in the room last night, altered the intensity of the fan, switched off the lights and looked at me peacefully sleeping. I can imagine his eyes easing up a bit, him quietly walking out of the room so as to not wake me up from the light-but-desperate-sleep I needed.

What's more of a special feeling than having someone who wants you to have the rest you deserve, who cares for you enough to not make the noise of walking steps so that he doesn't wake you up, someone who doesn't want you to get cold cause you slept without a duvet. What's more unconditional? What more ‘standards’ do they need to climb up to match your bare minimum?

Look around girls, every guy in your life is special and important in their own way. There are some who make it tough and unsafe out there for you, but there are some who make it all worth the effort, who bring the sunlight all just for you! ❤️‍🩹
