Living.

You will bloom if you take the time to water yourself.

Yesterday, I visited places where I used to go when I was not in a life crisis. It is so funny to me that some places remind me of my life, where I was happy and where I was living. I remember the time when living was not hard, and I didn’t have to think about what I needed to do next. And the next moment, I wonder why I can’t be like that anymore, why it is so hard to just live in the present and the endless questions. The sudden realization has led me to denial and deep thought about how I am just surviving the life that I should be living. The realization has opened my eyes to how my life has changed so much. I used to go out and see the world beyond the four walls and now how the four walls have trapped me in them. I have just become a person who thinks about what I need to do the next day and how much pending work I have to complete. And amidst where is the part where I should be happily living and looking forward to life. The sudden realization has awakened something in me that I just can’t let go of, and I feel sorry for myself because the routine I follow is the same, with my stress level is increasing. I really want to just sometimes relax and let it be because I know with time it will happen, and everything is going to be okay. I always think about why life has to be like that, why we have to fight every single day to live the life that is given to us, and maybe I will get the answer to this question when I truly understand when I get back and start living my life again. Maybe I should stop thinking about the next moment; maybe I should start living life the same way before. And I know I can do it; it is just the pressure of my own self that is not letting me enjoy my life.

The world around you is beautiful when the world within you is peaceful.

Creating your own happiness

Being happy is a very personal thing and it really has nothing to do with anyone else.

One of the best things that I love about being an adult is that I know what makes me happy and what I can do to create my own happiness. Every individual is different; the hobbies might be the same, but how one does those hobbies is different. I like seeing humans enjoy something that they truly love; I love to see their passions and wish to have passion for things that I love. Growing up, I was a kid who was all over the place. I had no interest in anything like a hobby that I could do on weekends and brag about how much fun I had. It took me time to find what I truly love because I didn’t want to do things that are common and what most others do to fit in society. I truly wanted to find what makes me happy, and I know it will help me keep going. When I found out there are things that make some happy from the inside, I was content because that is why you need a cold winter when the harsh wind reminds you of your hardship, but doing what you love wraps you around like a warm, cozy blanket. Creating your own happiness is so important because nobody is responsible for your life; only you can make yourself truly happy. If you want to do something, do it, don’t think about others, it’s your happiness that counts the most in the end. Oh, to find things that make you happy is just a graceful fortune that one can own, and it doesn’t have to be big. Remember, finding joy in little things is what actual happiness looks like. So, get up and start doing what makes you happy. The world has already given you a lot of moments to be depressed, but you need to get up and do what makes you happy because, in the end, what matters is creating your own happiness.

True happiness is when we are happy with ourselves.

Feeling more grateful.

I am grateful for the good energy flowing through me.

Life is unpredictable some days it makes us touch the infinity sky while some days it throws us on the ground so hard that standing up again becomes impossible. But I have learned whatever happens I need to accept it because life is also inevitable, the more fast I will accept the more I will move on and get better in life. There is no doubt that when life gives us everything we seem so grateful however when it takes us away from things we fall on the negative side of complaining and that is completely okay, I am like that too and should I say was. For a long time, my acceptance level in life has increased a lot I have become more calm about the chaos that keeps popping up from nowhere in my life and I wonder what? Whenever life throws something unpredictable towards me I think of people who are far worse than me and then too they are smiling. They are in a lot of pain but they have learned to smile in that pain and that makes me think how strong those people are. It is all about the mind and the perspective of how we see things if we look at it through a positive perspective then it makes living bearable. Because I accepted things, I have become more grateful for the life I am living. I am so thankful that my life is not exactly filled with thunderstorms, and I need to protect myself every now and then. Being grateful, not only means big things but it’s mostly about small things in life like your favourite food, good sleep, a good friend, and buying a book basically small moments that bring you joy from inside and a smile on your face. I say that life is not exactly a bed of roses as we will find thorns attached to it but that doesn’t mean we will ignore the beauty of the roses. I am feeling more grateful for life and I believe that you also have something that you should be thankful for, yourself!

grateful for small things, big things and everything in between.

Your own speed

Your direction is more important than your speed.

As an adult, there are a lot of things that I have realized the hard way, and one of them is that I have my own speed to achieve things, I have my own speed, and I should not feel bad if at a certain age I am far behind others. In the era of social media, when we look around, we see how fast the world is moving and people are moving too, but we are still stuck at the same page. I have felt that so many times. I have felt that I can’t do that, what is wrong with me, and a lot of why I can’t seem to find the answer. However, there is only one me in this entire world, nobody can be me and I can’t be someone else, so why should I compare myself with others? I think the world has made the perspective about how at a certain age the person should achieve this, but what about others who are fighting so much in their life to just survive? Why is it wrong to lag? Are we in competition with someone? There are many questions and accusations, but there is no sensible answer to them. I know myself, I know I am working really hard for my future and at some point in my life I feel like I need a break, I wouldn’t hesitate to do so because I deserve it. I have my own speed and if the world can’t accept it then I will create my own speed just to protect myself. I want to let you know that everything will set one day, maybe not today, but a day will come when you will look back and be grateful that you prioritised yourself and moved ahead at your speed. Remember we have to go far, so walking and running at your own speed is how it is possible. Walk at your speed, you don’t need the world to cheer you up at the finish line, you are enough for it.

Sometimes you need to slow down to speed up.

Taking a Break…

Sometimes you need to take a break from everyone and spend time alone to experience, appreciate, and love yourself. – Robert Tew

A couple of posts back I wrote about how as an adult my life has been the same. My daily routine is the same. I do the same thing every day, and I never realized it until now. Even though I do the same thing every day, my energy is getting drained, and I can feel myself getting physically and emotionally tired, and I wonder why. Because the stress is catching up to me, every single day with the same task, my stress level is increasing, and the funny thing is that I don’t realize it until the last energy is left in me. I think I need to do work no matter what because this is what adult life is all about, right? No, it is not, there is so much we need to do other than work, and that is just taking a rest. I see my break as a step back to just relax and appreciate what I have achieved till now, and then believe that I will do the same ahead as well. Everyone says that work is everything but nobody gives enough emphasis on how much a break is needed. Taking a break from a hectic life is not something that will come to mind until we don’t feel ourselves drained from the outside and inside, we won’t notice how hard we have worked, but we need to realize that before we feel ourselves drained, we need to take a break. Work is never going to stop nor the problems, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take a break, life is unpredictable, however, life has bound you by fate, what is written in your fate will happen no matter what, so why not live peacefully before any destruction comes. So keep aside all your work, and just close your eyes, let your mind rest and soak in the mandatory break that you need. Doing work is important, but at the same time taking a break is highly important for your mind and body.

Stop feeling guilty for taking a break.

Keep Fighting!

I have been through too many wars to ever doubt my strength.

There are a lot of things we learn as we become adults; among them, the most important is that we have to fight in life to get what we want. Life is not as easy as we know; to survive, we need fire in us to fight against all the odds. It is not easy to walk the path that you know will have a lot of thorns and to survive that, you need to become a warrior. To win in life, one has to go through failure to understand what exactly winning feels like. Just like that in life, we have to become a warrior in every step to keep fighting and walking forward towards the things we want. Life is cruel but at the same time, it is worth every fight because we are warriors, we have a burning passion to fight for the life we want to live. Nothing comes without a fight and effort; everything has its own time and its own way to come, but we have to keep up with the race of life to smell and live the victory. There are not many moments in my life where I have experienced victory, but trust me when I say the moments when I felt like I have won the fight, the feeling can’t be expressed in words. And I will keep on fighting for the life I want to live because every life is worth fighting for and every life has a meaning. There are days when you will be a warrior while some days you will become a mess but what matters is that you are still there fighting and trying and I am so proud of you. Fighting not only means bravery and courage, but it also includes fear, isn’t bravery’s second name, fear? You are the only one who can make meaning out of your life. Life is given to you because you are strong even if you don’t know that yet, but you will eventually, so keep fighting!

You gotta fight alone.

Don’t ever stop.

Never stop trying.

Never stop believing.

Never give up.

Your day will come.

I have always known that life is a cycle of happiness, sadness, happiness and just like that life continues. We humans tend to feel a lot of emotions that make us feel good and bad about ourselves. But do you know if we never feel sadness how will we ever realize the importance of happiness, how will we ever know how happy we are? Thoughts keep pouring into my mind about myself, whether I am doing well enough, and why I can’t see myself feeling satisfied with life and my goals. Because I always focus on my negative thinking and ignore my success and how much life truly has brought me happiness. Life indeed makes you think that your negative weighs over your positive and we just sit and question our lives. But I always remember how much I have done and how hard I am working and I am going to be okay. The important thing I have learned is to never stop, life is going to throw many challenges towards me but I have to keep pushing myself. Don’t ever stop, believe me, you are worth everything you want. Somedays might look tough and it will be difficult going through it but life is not always bad it’s the way you can see the good side of life and yourself. Don’t ever stop believing in yourself, you can do so much and you will realize that one day but before that please keep trying hard. Don’t think just do, because thinking will only make the scenario worse and what is not even true. Don’t ever stop for anyone, do whatever you want, you just live once and make the most out of it. The major thing that keeps me going is to try, at least try without caring about the result because trying won’t leave you with regret but not trying will.

don’t stop when you’re tired stop when you’re done

You can do it.

If you know you can do better…then do better.

I was not the kind of person who wrote proper goals but rather went with the flow. However, this year my best friend gave me a planner and for the first time in my life, I wrote a goal and guess what just within two months one of the biggest goals of my life is getting fulfilled today. I topped my first year of masters and saying I am over the moon would be an understatement. This is my first big achievement, I was not expecting this early. Let me tell you, I did my bachelors in something else but I was just leading my way ahead without actually gaining proper knowledge. So I decided to change my faculty and do something very different and I am so glad I took that step. It’s been a year and a half and almost six months left till I get my master’s degree and I never regret taking such a big step out of my comfort zone. By coming out of my comfort zone, I have realized that I could do so much but I need to be brave and just do it. It was hard coming out of my comfort zone and doing something so different because at this point it’s either going to take me up or throw me on the ground. And as we can see it gave me the wings to spread as much as I want to. When I started to take myself seriously, my passion and my strength I realized I could do it all, there is no negative voice that stops me, I just have one thing in my mind I want to do and I can do it.

Just like that, you can do it as well. Nothing in life is comfortable, especially things that you want in your life. You have to come out of your comfort zone and just do it. You don’t have to wait for the result, do it because you like it, because it makes you happy, because you see yourself getting better, and because you are enjoying it that is enough reason for you to just do it. I know you all can do it and it may look hard but your future, your passion, your happiness everything is calling your name so just do it.

Just because it’s hard doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

You can do it.

Everyday is same but why…

You know all those things you’ve always wanted to do?

You should go do them.

Every day is the same but why is the pressure on our mind increasing, why are we becoming more emotionally drained, why do we have to worry about our future rather than enjoying our present, why are we not becoming happy but sad, and why does life feel so hard? I have come to a realization that all my days look mostly the same however as I am moving on I feel myself getting more tired emotionally. I feel connected to flawed characters more whenever I read books or watch movies. I understand them more and their perspective comes first in my mind. And I wonder about the thought that used to come, will I ever be able to live like those in movies or books, is it coming true? But where is the happy part? I feel the pressure of the future has thoroughly made living in the present breathless. As we go on, we sleep at night and wake up to another day and just ponder on how we have to follow the same routine but now we have more baggage on our mind. I feel like as we move on we should be moving upwards in life, feeling ourselves more happy and grateful. But as days go on we are getting more drained and sad and I am afraid. Seeing a whole different side of the world makes me appreciate life more, especially my present and how living in the moment is so important. Every day will be the same, it’s life however it’s all up to us we have to fight for our lives. I have learned that for things that I want in my life, I have to fight for it, if I have to make my life good then I need to find a reason for it. Guys life is worth fighting for believe me, everyone wants to live a good life, a life they can remember forever but for that, we have to fight every single day. I know some days it’s hard but just think you are worth everything so fight and make life worth it so that even when every day will be the same you will find happiness moving forward.

You deserve good things.

The peace of not knowing anything…

PEACE.

The other day I saw a post that showed small children enjoying their time because they know nothing about the real world. They don’t have to worry about waking up early in the morning, they don’t have to worry about deadlines, they don’t have to worry about expectations, and they don’t have to worry about life. Once you become an adult you realize the importance of peace where the mind just stands still allowing you to enjoy the moment peacefully without letting you worry about the next moment. The child never worries about what is to come next, they focus a lot on what they are doing at the moment like eating their favourite snacks and they will be so focused because they are enjoying it thoroughly, they are not worrying about the next moment. Many people say to keep the inner child in you always alive, and to be honest, I am proud to say that but what about the mind, will it ever get the peace it deserves? The peace of not knowing anything makes me think how the world was so beautiful, so full of positivity and so full of love, however, as we grow up life takes a huge turn and makes us encounter moments that show that the peace we had as a child is now shattered. The peace of just not knowing anything is so good, just living life happily without worrying about what the next moment will bring, I want that time in my life, I am tired of worrying about what the next moment will bring, I just want to relax and go with the flow. You know I love watching kids being themselves, I really admire them and remember my old self as a kid. I was the kid with no care about the world, I had peace with just going with the flow, and now as an adult, everything has changed. But there are certain things I do to protect my peace and it is by minding my own business, I don’t want to hear about other business and fill my mind with more than it needs. I don’t share my feelings, I have locked my heart and mind in allowing negative feelings. Just put on your headphones and lock out the world’s voice, trust me you will be fine with the peace of not knowing anything…

“Protect your peace.”
