Poetry to me is not rhythm or rhyme, it is emotions raw, felt from the heart. This book is what a beautiful poetry book is all about.
but magic
doesn't work like that
magic doesn't happen
cause i've figured out how to
pack more work in a day
magic moves
by the laws of nature
and nature has its own clock
magic happens
when we play
when we escape
daydream and imagine
. . .
-productivity anxiety
I was so damn excited for Rupi Kaur's third beauty. So, I laid my hands on it as soon as I can only to put down till I finished it. This book is pure magic, it is divided into 4 parts - mind, heart, rest, awake. Pg 40 in part 1 just blew me away!! Being an author myself, I can see the hardwork and planning Kaur has put in, dividing & compiling this book beautifully.
This book is what I needed at the moment, to embrace my insecurities, believe it's okay to be broken, and everything works by nature's way and yes, relax and believe everything is gonna be okay! It was so deep & liberating. This book like her previous books too definitely didn't disappoint at all.
i'm done trying to
prove myself
to myself
What I loved most about this book is the concept of productivity, that it's okay to be unproductive. To take our own time, to live in the present moment instead of obssesing over the past or the future. I also loved the fact that it discusses various other critical issues as well like immigration, nature, feminism, racism, self-love etc.
Just love these lines
i don't know what to do with a man
who wants to hold on to me
for the rest of our lives
There were so many fav poems, lines. It's hard to choose some. In short, as much as our body, our mind is important as well~"Mind body." This book clearly convinces that it's okay to be imperfect.
Some poems made me smile, some felt mundane, some agape & spellbound. However, speaking about the wholeness of the book, it's a pure gem.
you have only scratched the surface
of what you're capable of
there are decades of victories
ahead of you.
Simply put, this book will talk to you, give you solace as well as confidence. And i will wait to read Kaur's future books too. She inspires & will keep inspiring. Thank you for this beauty!❤️
