Emotions are an integral part of human beings, which also seems to make us vulnerable in the most unexpected situations. This book is about my journey through all the curvy lanes of life, which is described in its different phases. At each point, the experiences felt totally unimportant, hence the word - “trinkets”. Even though it initially seemed to be of very little value, I found these trinkets to be the key to know more about myself and the world. Each of these are obviously felt in different ways and in measures, which is the reason why they are described as trinkets of different kinds. Each of these trinkets playing their role as they pave the way to a person’s destiny, are quite important even though they always seem to be of very less value. Conveying the ideas and emotions in each of these category is done through poetry, along with visual outlines for many - made by the poet. The idea is quite simple - to convey the thoughts in the poet’s mind as precisely as possible.
