Note to self: Let shit go.

Image
There's an Arab proverb that says " You should write the bad things that happen in the sand, so they can be easily erased ".   However, it's the human tendency to engrave bad things on marble and carry it with them lifelong. Taming a mind is like disciplining a child when it is constantly running in the directions you don't want it to. O ur minds and thoughts are a small part of us, but once we start seeing it as important, we can train it better at remembering the good things and letting go of the bad that becomes heavy baggage for the mind. Letting shit go is not easy because we are used to holding onto things that make the process difficult. We take things as we are the ones in control but we don't realize that holding onto unworthy things will make no sense rather than increasing the weight of our baggage. When it comes to me, I too hold onto things for a long time. But I constantly remind myself to embrace the worthy and let go of unworthy.  Once we promi...

Peace : Make it the ultimate goal.

Image
Protect your peace, Get rid of toxicity, Cleanse your space, Cultivate love. Are you in the midst of a storm? Are you having difficult time? Does it feel like you're losing yourself to the things happening around? Do things costs you your peace? In  the times of fast paced lives, we all go through the situations when our peace is at stake. But, above all choose peace because anything that costs you your inner peace is too expensive. There is no greater wealth in the world than the peace of mind. Peace, it does not mean being at a place where there is no noise or troubles, it means to be in the midst of all those things and still have the calmness of the mind and the heart, peace means letting it be, it means accepting things as they are. It means maintaining the composure of the mind.  A big part of self care is to make sure you protect your peace. It begins the moment you choose not to allow other persons and events to control your emotions. Distant yourself from the peace br...

Take time to make your SOUL happy.

Image
There is a beautiful thing rooted in you, an ocean like SOUL, waiting for you to reflect upon it. There you are in a comfortable corner of your house, feeling lonely. There you are wishing for something, feeling incapable. There you are on a beautiful planet, feeling sad. But what you are? Ever thought of it? Are you anything more than a body with a brain? If yes, then where do these feelings of loneliness, incapability and sadness came from? Have you ever tried to get to the origin of these feelings?  The answer to these questions lies within us. These feelings come from our Soul, the feeling centre within us. Usually, we do not think about our souls. We can have all the material things and love, but if we can't take care of our soul, we can't have the peace and happiness we should be having. By not taking care of our souls, we limit ourselves from living each moment to the fullest. It's high time we should start taking care of our souls. Take time ...

"NOW" is all we have.

Image
All we have is Now. If it doesn't drive you, or delight you, stop doing it right now and start doing something you love. If there's someone who inspires you, let them know. If there's someone you love, tell'em. You absolutely have no time to waste.                                                                                                             - Birdie of Bonne Vie.   You know when you get so far down a certain path, you forget why you started? You forget where you're heading?  Well, the truth that, life is short and all we have is the moment we are in , is heart breaking to think that this moment will never come back. It's scary to realise how easily life can feel like that. When the...

Am I a good Human Being?

Image
Being good isn't an easy task. To be so, you must acknowledge the bad within you. Am I really good? This is a question that has always bothered me. On some days I think I am and on others I think I'm not. Being good isn't hard too, but it doesn't just happen. Everyone has a different journey, being good has a lot to do with discovering yourself. You have to accept and love yourself for who you are before you can put the goodness into the world. For me, "Goodness" always comes straight from the heart in it's purest form. It is doing good to others, being honest and kind to everyone and everything. I've always tried to embody the qualities I admire in others and at the same time remembering the person I am because being yourself always helps in being a genuine person. I dwell on happiness as it brings out the good in you and on the good around instead of focusing on the negative. I've always done things that make me believe I'm a good person and ...

It's a joy to be HIDDEN.

Image
The day I began to live is the day I discovered being an introvert is awesome. I know this is going to be hard for dynamic and enthusiastic extroverts to believe, but some people are happy being introverts. Being an introvert, I always remained quiet and used to shy away from people. I've been told an uncountable number of times to change myself and speak otherwise I won't fit in according to them. For being quiet, I was mistaken to have an attitude.   I just want to ask people Is it really necessary to speak, to spit out words that don't even make sense? Is it necessary to get involved in gossips like you all do? Don't you people realize I am much more comfortable in being quiet? Even if I fake myself will it make any difference to you? No it will not make even the slightest difference. Can't you even handle someone's silence? Are you that incapable? When you can't understand someone's silence, you will never understand their words.  You mus...
