THE REASON YOU ARE READING THIS RIGHT NOW.

Info

Harry Potter as a piece of fiction has had a lasting impact on my life. As a kid I remember my excitement when any of the movies would come on the television and even as a teenager, when everything goes wrong in life, the witches and wizards come to my rescue. But this one line from the book which I reflect upon almost everyday, sometimes even two times a day, is Headmaster Dumbledore's line. He says "Words in my humble opinion Harry, are our most inexhaustible  source of magic". Now stop for a minute, keep down the phone you were texting on, put down that plate of food and feel this statement. Feel it. Yes people, you can feel the words. How? Well remember when your father said that he was proud of you? or the time when your child said his first words or when a lover confessed his or her feelings? or when you got into that heated argument with your best friend? Words in my opinion make you feel more than you could ever imagine. Words can hurt and words can heal. I speak for myself and all those reading this right now, we find solace in words. Why else am i writing and you are reading? Sometimes as humans we are unable to express ourselves and make sense of what we are feeling, sometimes we just need to find the right words. We look for things to read because at times our hearts just need to find pieces that express what we are feeling at that moment. I mean ask tumblr, somehow it always has something to describe the tornado in my heart and mind. And when you find something that hits you, that you relate to, Oh My God!. You feel the words. You feel them physically passing through your ribcage and pushing their way into your hearts and then getting pumped with the blood through the pulmonary artery and then flowing through your whole body. I understand the importance of these words, because trust me they have made me cry tears of both immense joy and killing sadness. And on some level they are both equally important I guess. 

Now answering the question, the reason you are reading this right now is because you want to know that its justifiable to feel whatever that is you are feeling and that there are others out there too, feeling the same, going through the same. So lovely people please realise the importance of the things that come out of your mouth, because trust me they can make or break someone's life. Also never ever ever be afraid of feeling things deeply, because from personal experience there is nothing more heartbreaking than feeling numb and there is nothing more powerful than feelings things with your soul because somehow it makes the heartbreaks and pain also beautiful.Trust me on that. FEEL. IT HELPS.
