[Completed]A Tale Of An Indian Wattpad Writer

Acceptance Of Failure

(Reposting it in book one)

Hello, everyone! I hope you all have been well.

Through this note, I wanted to apologize for not updating for months.(Book 2) I am sorry for keeping you waiting. I don't know how many of you are still here and how many of you have left. But I know that it's completely my fault. Also, thank you to all those who have read book one and appreciated it in my absence.

Those people who have been with me since book one know that I had always a dream of becoming a doctor. I tried two years after 12th but I could not succeed. I took medical entrance coaching, read day and night, practiced online but I guess it was not in my fate. My destiny had better things for me. It drove me towards what I truly love and helped me discover myself.

How is it connected to my story?

A tale of an Indian Wattpad writer had been the story of my experiences even if partly. Aesha's wish for becoming a doctor was actually a representation of mine. Her grandfather's expectations were actually my late grandfather's. I made Aesha have success but I could not do so for myself in real life. Whenever I sat down to write the next chapter of A tale of an Indian marriage, I came face to face with my failure. I had to write about medical practices and all, which I knew will always be a dream to me. I would never do those things in future. I had to write purely based on my imagination. Sometimes this would make me cry. I had a hard time to accept that it was not in my destiny. I was mentally disturbed.

When I couldn't write for months, I even had this thought to change Aesha's profession. I thought to showcase my failure through her. I thought it might make me feel more connected to the story. I understood there were a number of changes I had to make. I knew it would need tremendous time to edit and the plot will completely change. I would have to make changes in book one. I realized that I would have to write book two from scratch again. I even thought of posting a notice to ask you about this.

But one day, I realized how happy I was on the current course. I remembered that I had promised myself to either do medical or English honors. I was finally following my passion. I was studying something that I love. I should be happy and accept it. I should accept my failures so that I can learn from it and move on. This course gave me the freedom to look at the world in another perspective. I truly understood how in India, we give so much importance to medical and Engineering.

It was the beginning of a new journey. I cherished the fact that I was lucky enough to get admission in a central university. The schedule, the courses, nd environment, everything was suitable to me. I was not running after a dream but now, I was the creator of a dream. It's hard to get admission in such a good college. I truly understood that no career is less than other. It's our mentality that assigns the status.

I thought what did a writer do... A writer is someone who creates his/her own world through his imagination. I realized that if I change Aesha's profession then as a writer, I am not justifying myself. Instead of upgrading my writing skills, I will be degrading it. As a writer, I have to be anything that my story wants. I should not put a boundary to my imaginations.

Also, it was not justified to my readers. My story could be an inspiration to someone. I failed but maybe, this story will help people to work harder towards their dreams, whatever dreams they have. If you have read book one, then you know that I don't promote Medical or Engineering as the only careers. I have appreciated others too. I have always stressed on the fact that follow what you desire to, not what others expect from you.

With that said, never let your failures put a restraint on your writing or even, your life. Accept your failures, learn from them and move forward. Accept what the god has given you. Maybe, it is for your best only. Nothing will come out of feeling guilty all the time and running away from these failures. It will take the time to accept it, it took me one year but I am finally in peace. My biggest support throughout were my parents and my sister.

I see people who initially wanted to be something else but are successful in other fields. They are happy. So, I should embrace this path and evolve it to it's best potential. I don't know what I will be in future but what I know is that I have to give full efforts to my present.

Thank you for being with me all this time and for all the love you have given.

Lastly, book two will be updated today.
