Count your blessings—not your troubles!

You have so little to complain about and so much to be grateful for. Stop stressing and start counting your blessings.

Is it just me or someone else as well that whenever I buy something I never feel happy but I feel guilty that I spend money and whenever I look at people around me who can’t afford those things I feel so bad and that I also don’t deserve it. But as time passes by I have realized that those people are happy because they don’t have many things to be grateful for and the things they have counted as their blessings and are happy with that. I always try to be grateful as much as possible that today I can afford to write here and post without having the tension of anything. You just need to find a purpose in life and start counting your blessings in the place of your misfortune. Remember if there are misfortunes and troubles then there are also blessings which we normally ignore to count because of our negative thinking. I have always learned to count my blessings as much as I can because sometimes we become so greedy that we always look at the negative side and just think of so many troubles that are coming our way. Also how we picturized the situation plays a big role too in helping us keep our mind positive. Troubles come to everyone irrespective of their background it’s a life thing which no one can control and we do know how to handle them but sometimes it gets too much that we start complaining and it’s okay we do need some time to come back to our senses. How to make sure that we do not take our blessings for granted is by journaling and writing what good happened today or what so not good happened and how can you write those things in a positive way helps in reminding that you are truly blessed. Now in this era, if you are breathing that actually is one of the blessings you should always be thankful for. When you start counting your blessings you will realize that you don’t have time to count your troubles and life is sweet bitter sweet bitter it will never be trouble-free and it’s a process you just need to learn to count your blessings-not your troubles!

Happiness is not about getting all you want, it is about enjoying what you have.

Things I Wish I had said but NEVER DID!

Stay soft.

Do not let the things that have hurt you turn you into a person you are not.

It’s OK to not be OK, the biggest mantra I wanna say to myself and keep repeating because not everything in my life is going to be perfect and I should not have that prediction either. Some people just don’t want to accept it they think that I am perfect and if I made any mistakes then it’s over for me they think the first time was just my luck and I don’t know anything.

I can’t always be happy and smiling because life is not about it. If people truly care about you then they will want you to show them your real feeling and you, yourself want to do so. But sometimes people are like just be happy and keep smiling if you tell them your problems but that’s not fine. If I want to cry and scream about my problems then that’s okay everyone has that right.

Many people like things that are very common to like but it’s okay if I don’t it’s not the end of the world. I am a very picky person and I know I need to open up my mind a little bit but somewhere if I need to think and make decisions wisely it’s not bad. It’s my life and I can do whatever I want.

Sometimes you don’t need people to give you advice and be rescued about it. Sometimes you just want someone to listen to you, you want someone who holds your hand lightly and stares at your face with warmth while you are ranting about your problems because not everyone is ready to listen to your problems. I just want to be accepted the way I am and whatever situation I am in I just want people to know not every situation can be changed sometime you just have to have the will to accept it.

I don’t always need to try hard just because I did on the first one. Circumstances change, and problems can arise from anywhere, and time so your progress might not be up to the mark but that doesn’t mean the first one was luck and that you’re not working hard.

Saying things out loud is not bad at all. People make it seem that you are gaining sympathy but it’s not true. You should know your limit and when things have to be said it has to be said. It’s so important to make people realize how not everything in life goes according to them and how your feelings matter too.

Above are the things I wish I could tell people on their faces at the right time but Alas! I learned a lot for me to keep in mind what truly matters to me and how I should only focus on myself. Remember it’s your life, don’t ever let anyone make you feel guilty about how you are dealing with situations and how you are living your life. Also, say whatever you want if you feel like it’s not right because you don’t want to have things you wish you had said but NEVER DID!

you deserve to feel the same love that you give.

Decisions.

The move that you’re afraid to make could be the one that changes everything!

It breaks my heart to make a decision about something I want but everyone disagrees. Decisions never become a very important part of one’s life until they realise how crucial it is to think about themselves without letting other people do it for them. One thing to keep in mind is that every decision you are going to take will not make everyone happy there will be people who don’t want you to go for it like really close ones maybe, parents and siblings and to be honest you, yourself don’t know if the decision is going to be right or not. However, life is all about risk, I have talked with so many old people and asked them what is one thing they want to tell their younger generation to us? And everyone told you if you want to achieve something you have to take risks without risk there is nothing good and exciting that will happen in your life. And then I realized that you can’t always get happiness there are so many important feelings that you need to go through to truly enjoy the process of life. Decisions are very tough to make because of the unexpected result of it but as I said it is all about risk and not many people are going to support you, you have to fight through and lead the path you always wanted to walk on. Making any decision is so hard like the mind wavering back and forth, reassuring oneself that it’s the right decision, doubting the decision a thousand times, if something goes wrong you can feel demotivated, and many other feelings take place while taking the decision and after that too. However, you have to make a choice life is always about choices you can’t keep both and that’s why you need to take a decision and until and unless you won’t take it you can’t move forward in life. Remember life is all about risk and you have to take it by making decisions.

The Story of Broken Relationships!

Sometimes you have to make a decision that will break your heart but will give peace to your soul.

Any relationship is the effort of both parties, a person will receive and need to give for the relationship to develop a strong bond. However, it doesn’t seem as easy as said because each person has their own thoughts which might clash and that is why communication is very important which leads to understanding and mature bonds in any relationship. Any broken piece of glass be it big or tiny can pierce the skin of people very badly and it’s just a physical cut, it will heal. However, it is said when a relationship is going to break people can feel it just like glass it pierces the skin exactly the relationship which is broken breaks the person’s existence and makes them question what they did wrong. And the difference between them is the physical cut of glass will heal and will be long forgotten but broken relationships will always stay in the memories and whenever something related to them comes forward we are thrown into a flashback which is more intense as we relive all the pain again. There are always two sides to a story, one where a person chooses a relationship over him/her or where a person chooses him/her over the relationship. When decades of a relationship come to an end it hurts a lot and some might not even want to end it because the memories the relationship has created the bond everything from so many years will make one feel that it will all be waste and that is why people tend to be in a relationship where they just want to escape but not want to end it. I always watched people having such big groups of friends including myself but I only have a few whom I talk to daily and now I have realized that having only one friend that I talk to daily is heavenly for me because that one friend of mine doesn’t make me feel like I need another one and that one friend of mine is enough for me.

It hurts to let go of a relationship especially friendship when the flashback appears or the moments in the present or the future which you both talked about in the past take place but with whom you planned out everything is just not there or they are there but not like before it’s more formal now. I always heard that with time people change and you lose them and now I truly believe in it because it’s not time or people that change them, it’s just them they wanted to change and they allow it which leads to the story of broken relationships!

You can miss someone

and heal at the same time.

Scared.

That move you are scared to make might just be the one.

Tell me honestly how many of you are scared of your own feeling and thoughts that made you stop taking steps in your life. I am one of them because of my insecurities and my fear of making the wrong decision because as many people say, life does not always give you a second chance. After all, moving on is not at all easy. Feeling scared before and after taking a big decision is a part of my dictionary because of how uncertain I am with myself and not being able to believe in myself leads to this but only for a small time. I have realized that in the beginning I always let my insecurities and my fear take over control especially when I am starting a new chapter in my life but it’s totally normal it’s a human tendency to do it because it takes our mind to adjust to new things to new pressure which makes us scared. Let me tell you that if something big happened that made people scared to do it again or to move forward is not at all easy, to begin with. But this life we are living at the moment is playing hide and seek with us every second it will scare us and challenge us to move forward and that is where we have to be brave and try to tell ourselves that being scared will lead was nowhere that is why we have to be brave and let me tell you after being scared when you get the courage to move forward will lead to another level of satisfaction for yourself trust me. It’s okay to be afraid of never let your mind makes you feel guilty about it just remember to not let fear control it calmly find out the way and slowly move to clear the path for yourself. Taking chances is always scary but there is something more scary that one should fear missing out on the beautiful chances you will get by taking the chance just because you are scared.

If it excites you and scares you at the same time, it probably means you should do it.

The Reality of Loss!

there will always be a tiny piece of my heart that silently breaks when I catch myself having fun.

You know it really sucks that there is so much you want to say yet you can’t it’s like some force has been used that you just can’t open your mouth and the frustration because of it makes you lose inside your mind and this is what I call it as the reality of loss. It is as bad as you think because nothing in this world can repay for the loss one goes through, not even themselves. No matter what people say or their motivation nothing worked out and that really sucks because nothing can cheer you up, it’s like finding a piece of sugar from a bag of salt which we all know is not possible. I just know what has happened it can’t be made right how much you try it will always haunt you in the back of your mind ALWAYS. Talks, people, and moments are some of the precious things that people have in their life and among them if something is lost it becomes a pain forever. No matter what people say if it but pain can never be forgotten and it can’t be made better, IT JUST CAN’T. I have learned that pain and loss don’t need solutions because in the first place they don’t even have them they are not exactly problems but a phase of life that can never be forgotten. If you see people happy that doesn’t mean that they are over with the loss because some loss can’t be cheered up and reality is far from it. I just know you don’t want people to give you a solution for it but acknowledge them telling you to cry, scream whatever makes you feel better you need people to see through your eyes about the feeling that you feel. It’s like you are alone sitting in a dark room and you don’t want people to open up the door for you because it’s you who have to do it you just need them to sit with you in a dark room and give you encouragement words to assure you that they are with you and give your the courage until you are ready to open up the room by yourself.

I know I know I missed two uploads because I am not feeling well for the past few days, it’s more emotional than physical feeling as I am dealing with it still a lot has to pass but in a few days I will be celebrating the second anniversary of my blog and I have prepared a little surprise for you all, hope that you will like it – a spoiler it’s my first attempt on it and I am eagerly waiting for your reactions.

imagine waking up in an alternate reality where everything is different and nothing looks familiar but you are still expected to function normally…

that’s how it feels

reality of loss.

I’m Changing…

“We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are.”

Max Depree.

I am the type of person that can’t handle change I just want to be in a comfortable zone in what I am doing and not want to take a new step in that thing because I can’t adjust to change and leave my comfort zone. But I read somewhere that if you are comfortable then you are in the wrong place. I learned that for better success, I have to take new risks I have to do, and why do I always need to think negatively and not trust myself but let’s look at the positive side and to gain something I need to lose something right? But now I am changing for good now I am learning more about myself because the step I have taken in my life is for myself it’s just for myself I am alone on this journey I didn’t ask anybody but I did it because I believe in myself, I believe in my talent. If you don’t take the first step, you won’t know how capable you are of it. It might be like that after the first step things might not go according to you but trust me after the first step you will gain all the confidence to take the second step. I trust myself and you, just like how I changed for myself, took the first step and believed in my dreams I want you all to just do it, believe in yourself, and change for good and better things in your life. Growth and change are a phase of things that might be messy, uncomfortable, and many feelings that you don’t even expect you will feel but those things you need to feel to do better for yourself and your future.

PLEASE BE KIND!

Have courage and be kind, where there is kindness there is goodness and where there is goodness there is MAGIC!

Cinderella.

Nobody is going to remember your face or your physical features as much but your behavior towards them and your kindness towards them will be forever embarked in their memories. Heck, I still remember when my family members were struggling to go on the escalator and I alone was not able to handle so there is were many people from behind they didn’t ignore us but as fast as they saw us they run to help us, they lend their hands to us and it makes me remember that there is still humanity and kindness alive in this world. While helping someone, that someone will go and spread the news about how a nice person helped them but not by your physical features but your actions will forever be embarked in their mind, and in the future when they will remember you an instant smile will come on their face. The hardest thing to do in this world is to be kind, some people are so selfish that in their dictionary a word like selfless does not even exist. I was always told by my mother that not using your words carefully can hurt someone very much even though you don’t mean it then too be mindful of what you say. There where I learned the importance of staying quiet it’s very hard but it’s so beneficial for both parties. No one knows what one goes through, you see people online and people sitting beside you in the restaurant that you know nothing about what they are going through so the only way to help them is to be kind and if you can’t be kind then keep quiet. If you don’t like anybody, stay away from them leave them, alone, and let them be happy and you as well. The moment this world will realize how important it is to be kind, that moment will be when half of the problems of people will flow away automatically so please be kind.

In a world where you can be anything be KIND!

Letting Go…

“You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what’ could’ve, would’ve happened… or you can just leave the pieces on the floor & move on.”

Tupac Shakur.

The hardest feeling I felt was when I had to let go of the ice cream that fell on the ground, making one more plus point in my clumsy diary. But on a serious note, why is it so hard to let off of something? Why do we have to think about it so much and why does it hurt so much? Honestly holding on to something that gives you no meaning yet just because you don’t want to waste all the time spent together, all those memories, and all those ahead moments where you both will pass each other like strangers, and trust me I know that feeling very well, it hurts. When we grow up a lot of things change in one’s life and it does affect various relationships as well. And in those times I have learned that a relationship is all about give and take if you are putting your hand forward then they need to do the same both parties need to put in an equal amount of effort. The most shocking thing when a person decides to let go of it is not only because they are not feeling any love but because everything changed, they changed and just thinking about what actually changed there is no answer. You are the same but that person is not the one you know. Letting go of something has the same feeling as when we feel tears leaking out of our eyes in the middle of the night just because our heart is sad but we don’t know the reason behind it. I have realized that letting go doesn’t mean you stop loving them or greeting them but because you stop pitting yourself, you tell yourself to move on, you let yourself get free from all the disturbing thoughts about them, and you just want yourself to be happy and letting go is the solution.

Closure happens right after you accept that letting go and moving on is more important than protecting a fantasy of how the relationship could have been.

Worries!

Breath, darling.

This is just a chapter.

It’s not your whole story.

S.C. Lourie.

I was never the overthinking kind of person, never did I overthink what I want to become in the future, and never did I overthink when I waste my whole day doing absolutely nothing “Sigh.” I know you all will be thinking that I have changed now but that is totally wrong actually I am proud of myself, now that I think about it I never overthink like never my friends always say why are you so chill and to be honest I also don’t know maybe it’s my biggest flex “smirk.” To be honest, my mother is the biggest reason why worrying and overthinking don’t affect me because she always says “worrying about things will do nothing but will prevent you from achieving something”. Those words are like magic to me. You know you need some person to tell you that and the calmness after hearing those words from my mother helps me a lot. And I wanted to share those words with you I probably won’t be able to help to lessen your worry but I hope that maybe my trying did like 0.001 percent something and if it did I will be over the moon. I was reading a book the other day on worry and the way the book has conveyed today’s generation being surrounded by worrying without even thinking how torn they are getting from inside astonished me so much. Worrying about the future will not do any good to you, it will only destroy your today which is way more important. In the book, I learned that live for today, and at the end of the day quit all the worries of today and start the next day as your new life. Try to be patient with yourself and solve your problems by keeping your mind fresh and without worries. Because worries are going to come in every step of your life that doesn’t mean you will be drowning in them, learn to solve them and learn to control your mind from worries, I know you can do it:)

Thoughts are not FACTS!

Keep Smiling, you are loved ~ MA.
