Welcome to Scarlet Scribbles! ✨🖋️

Every word holds a story, every verse echoes a feeling. Here, you'll find pieces of my heart woven into poetry—expressions of dreams, dilemmas, resilience, and hope. Some lines whisper untold emotions, while others scream the unspoken truths of life.

Through Scarlet Scribbles, I invite you to step into a world of words that reflect both the chaos and beauty of being human. Dive in, feel, and maybe, just maybe, find a piece of yourself in these verses. 

Are you ready to read the first ever ink that felt personal? ✨🖋️

This was the moment my words truly became mine—the first time emotions spilled onto paper in a way that felt real. A mix of strength and vulnerability, of silent battles and untold feelings. This poem marked the beginning of my journey, where writing became more than just words—it became a reflection of me.

And so it begins...

The Hidden Feeling -

A person who is eager to see the shining success,
She who is trying to be the one,
A sweet little girl who tries to be the bold woman in front of everyone,
However, deep inside, she still remains the softest one.

She dreams to be the best petal,
But she doesn’t know that she is the one and only,
The bright, beautiful flower that catches the eye
In the field of life.

Despite her soft nature, she pretends to be like a rose,
The one and only thing that is soft but has a harsh, hard outer covering. 

The next one has another beautiful string connected - 

The Reflecting Piece - 

I worked hard to get there,
Every minute spent to take that step.
What is that place?
The blessing of experiencing moments of happiness,
And the warmth of peace.

Yet if my imagination flips,
And the wheels take a different turn,
Will my confidence slip?
Will I ever be able to shine again,
As quickly as a flash, or remain as ash?

I know I am hesitant,
Caught in continuous tension,
Wondering if the time spent was enough
To achieve the feelings I expected.
To achieve the position respected,
And reach the end of this quest —
Who knows what is driven by destiny,
What is written by fate?

If I am meant to fly high,
Then I must be ready to touch the sky.
Soar to great heights;
I assure you, no one can stop you
From waving your hands in front of the flashing lights.

The undeniable truth is this:
As you expressed your level best,
Wish the one only to grant you
With the deserving rest.

Thank You! ✨💖

To everyone who takes a moment to read, feel, and connect with my words—thank you. Every poem, every line, and every thought shared here holds a piece of me, and knowing that it reaches you makes this journey even more special.

Stay tuned for more emotions woven into words, more untold feelings, and more stories waiting to be felt. 🌸

With gratitude,
Aradhya 🖋️✨

Some of the monuments you must visit in order to explore the true beauty of the wonderful city . 
  • Agra: Agra, a city in northern India, is renowned for its rich history and breathtaking architecture, making it a must-visit destination for travelers from around the globe. It is a city that captures the true significance of love and beauty, showcasing an admirable combination of both. Agra stands out for its magical and majestic monuments, such as the Taj Mahal, as well as its historical importance. It even served as the capital of the Mughal Empire during the 16th and 17th centuries.



1) Taj Mahal: It is the heart of the city of Agra, encapsulating the significance of love, beauty, and a captivating vibe. As one of the Seven Wonders of the World, it offers a glimpse into the unparalleled aesthetics that await visitors. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal, this elegant and stunning monument is crafted from pristine white marble and adorned with intricate inlay work. Despite being constructed centuries ago, it still exudes the same charm and freshness as a blooming flower, beating with the rhythm of love. Visitors are often mesmerized by the Taj Mahal’s beauty, especially at sunrise and sunset when it radiates a stunning array of hues. This is the perfect time to capture photographs that reflect the beauty you experience, ensuring that the joy of your visit lingers in your memories for a lifetime. Every time you see those photos, you'll feel inspired to pack your bags again and relive the joy of that unforgettable experience.  


2) Besides the timeless Taj Mahal, Agra is blessed with several other significant sites, such as the Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It stands like a freshly bloomed garden, offering a sense of peace and tranquility. Made of red sandstone, the fort is home to beautiful and awe-inspiring palaces, including the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal. From the fort, visitors can enjoy stunning views of the Taj Mahal across the Yamuna River, adding to the magical atmosphere of the city .  



3)Another gem is the Itimad-ud-Daulah's Tomb, often referred to as the "Baby Taj." This tomb is notable for its delicate design and beautiful gardens, showcasing the craftsmanship that preceded the Taj Mahal.

Agra is also famous for its cuisine, particularly dishes like Petha (a sweet made from ash gourd ) and Mughlai delicacies that tantalize the taste buds.

The city is a blend of ancient history and modern life, where the past coexists with contemporary culture. Agra's warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with its breathtaking sites, makes it an unforgettable destination for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure.


2) Varanasi :- The Eternal City 

Varanasi, also known as Kashi or Banaras, is one of the oldest yet most beautiful living cities in the world, nestled along the sacred Ganges River in Northern India. Revered as the spiritual capital of India, this ancient city offers a serene and mystical atmosphere where time seems to stand still. Walking through the streets of Varanasi feels like stepping back in time, filling you with a sense of freedom and happiness, and connecting you to God and the reality of life. If one feels demotivated in life, they should visit this magical, dream-like city, where you can make a wish to the Creator of the universe. Life will then feel as fast and exciting as a race car, and you may find yourself blessed with what you prayed for.



The city is well-known for its timeless and stunning ghats, which are riverfront steps leading to the holy Ganges River. Here, the process of life and death coexist harmoniously, as people in India consider the Ganges flowing through Varanasi the holiest of all rivers. According to the Puranas, performing death rituals near the Ganges helps a person's soul (aatma) attain peace. Similarly, anyone visiting the river, even if burdened by life's stresses, is said to feel the calming and magical presence of the Ganges. The atmosphere at the ghats is both glamorous and tranquil, offering a unique sense of relaxation.


Various rituals, such as Chhath Puja, take place on the ghats, and witnessing them is a true blessing and joy. The most famous of these is Dashashwamedh Ghat, which hosts the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti—a daily ceremony where priests perform rituals with fire and chants in honor of the holy river. The Ganga Aarti is conducted with such energy and devotion to celebrate the purity and charity of the Ganges, making it an awe-inspiring experience. Watching the aarti is considered a pure blessing, as it is believed to bring peace and fulfillment to those who witness it. It is one of the most uplifting and spiritually enriching experiences one can have.

 

Varanasi is also home to countless temples, the most notable being the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva. For Hindus, a visit to this temple is a spiritual journey, as they believe Varanasi is where the cycle of life and death can be transcended, offering moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth). The Kashi Vishwanath Temple holds great significance because it enshrines the jyotirlinga of Shiva Visveswaraya, or Vishwanath. A visit to the temple, along with a ritual bath in the Ganges, is believed to cleanse one's sins and lead them on the path to moksha. No matter who you are or what you've endured, the sacred waters of the Ganges are said to wash away all your pains and griefs, bringing peace and spiritual fulfillment.



The Benares Gharana is world-renowned and cherished by people of diverse interests and cultures, offering a unique experience that pleases the soul by soothing the ears and mind with the most beautiful compositions sung in this tradition. Experiencing the Benares Gharana is a must, as it provides a serene escape into the depths of Indian classical music. Aside from its spiritual aura, Varanasi is a hub of Indian culture, arts, and music. The city is famous for its intricately woven Banaras silk sarees, cherished across the country for their fine craftsmanship. Wearing a Banarasi silk saree is essential, as it adorns the wearer in the most beautiful way possible, leaving them feeling their best. This truly exquisite piece of clothing is bound to make anyone feel graceful and elegant, perfectly reflecting the rich heritage of this enchanting city.

Varanasi’s charm lies in its chaotic streets, the sound of temple bells ringing through the air, and the ever-present Ganges flowing peacefully. Visitors often find themselves drawn into the city’s mystical energy, leaving with a sense of inner peace and spiritual connection.

In Varanasi, you don’t just visit a city—you experience a way of life that has endured for millennia, offering you a glimpse into the heart and soul of India.

India is a vast country, well-known and respected for its divine culture and monumental heritage. Agra and Varanasi are just two of the many places that will leave you in awe with their absolute beauty, while still relaxing your mind and nourishing your soul. Whenever you visit these places, you'll get the idea of packing your bags once again and reliving the joy. Stay tuned for the next blog post, where I’ll explore more such incredible destinations—places that will captivate your mind and help you make the most of your precious time.
