It has always been the past. You know why !! because future keeps me worrying and activates my overthinking power to a stage where I loose it. I have read multiple times to not look back and think about past but my views contradict with that. Why not !! if it has a lot of lessons. It holds a lot of grief that you have overcome. There are also your beloved memories which motivate your now. Too much of anything is poison , everyone should have heard this. Same way thinking too much on past or future is going to harm you. But I would always choose to think of the past. You know what has happened. It is not possible to change the actions already done. Of course, you can be more cautious in your next decisions. Nonetheless, enjoy making mistakes because that is what makes the past beautiful. It is interesting to look back. Your past is your treasure, nobody can steal it!!
Depends on who is giving it !! If it is one of my beloved people then anything would be the greatest when it is given. But if its from not expected person then the comparison program starts for which would be the greatest. Till date, I have received many gifts from my beloved one’s. Whenever I received a gift, I felt happy like a small kid who got their wish. I do not see the intentions , emotions or whatever they gave, I just become happy.
As time goes by, I have realized something important. A listening ear, no matter who it is, is the precious thing you would want. And added advantage, anything given as a token of happiness from these would be the greatest gift for you !!
Another year, another beginning . Does it really mean, our life also has a new beginning with new year. Or is it just another day giving you the chance to do what is right for you.
2025 here it comes !! Every year, the days you get are the same. But, as a person, you can change. Your surroundings change dramatically, or there be no change at all. As the years progress from childhood, new year prayers have changed drastically. Initially, they were about “let this year be my year.” Now, they have shifted to “2025 please be kind with me”. The world after deadly covid is not the same. We are alive. That’s the achievement. We have our jobs. Well, good for you. You have a house to stay. Lucky, right!!
I am not sure if 2025 will be kind to me or not. Nevertheless, I want to make sure that 2025 is a year to focus on myself. I aim to be happy with little things. I want to cherish the small circles of people I have in my life. I aspire to be happy for who I am!!!
Well then Happy New Year !!! Let this year bring happiness and joy within themselves and if not , let them find the path to it.
Ah!! Tough to write about this. Each phase in my life, had different opinions on how each person had an impact in my life. But in confident I would say, it is friends. The whole life I have been making friends, friends and friends nothing else. As the phases pass by I did lose one by one as a matter of situations or mistakes or destiny. Each of them affected my emotions. They changed how I look at myself. They taught me how to care more. I learned how to be selfish for my own good. I am thankful to all of them who have been there for me till the end. I am also grateful to those who are not there but still keep me in their prayers.
Above picture, where do you think it would be found. If we go around the world, we see wars and fights everywhere. Relationships are broken in the name of religion, god and faith. But there is one place I know, where these do not have any importance and that is a hospital. Yes, you read it right, a hospital and this image above is outside a cancer trust organization. I felt intrigued and funny at the same time. People quarrel their whole lives around religion and faith. When death is near, nothing matters. If you see closely there is flower lying below the image and why do i feel that resembles us. We surrender to any god when the fear of death is around us. Where did the earlier beliefs go away all of sudden, funny right !!!
This topic is debatable and argumentative. Still, I believe there is at least one place where religion does not play a role. Here, prayer is not attached to any single religion.
At first, I had only one purpose when I visited this place. I intended to give away certain clothes to those in need. But once I entered, my mind just froze. I was waiting for my bags back. Suddenly, there was a huge scream and loud cry in front of the above picture. You know why !! someone just died of last stage cancer. I did not expect that or I can say I felt something changed inside my mind. This image was put up for a reason there. When you are dead, it does not matter what religion you belong to. The way you get buried or cremated also does not matter. It is just grief to the families, relatives, or any closed ones that is left.
How much ever we write , we say, we preach all around world on this. Still world will see the baby just born with tag of religion. People say as year goes by people are becoming mature , modern. But where does that belong when it comes to religion. There is one power. One faith which protects you. It’s upon you to tag it to any religion. It does not matter. Avoid harming emotions, disrupting harmony, and spoiling happiness in the name of it.
Hoping the world see the brighter side of this unimaginable power and make a better place to live !!!
As I walk of the above place, there is something in me always asks for. Is that power watching me and leading me here? Or is it just me finding the power in myself? Faith in that power makes a person so powerful. Still, the person can become dumb or confused in the name of faith. What a world we live in !!!
Have you ever felt that someone has pressed a pause button in your life !!
If life would be compared to a movie, each person would have their story tagged to some genre. What would mine look like ah !!!
I guess these thoughts , these life turning quotes or mind boggling events does come only after 30s.
Most of our childhood we spend without thinking what next day holds. Its like the weather, you predict something but it just does not align with that prediction. You laugh, you play, you cry, you enjoy, and you study. Some work but never think of life as a story. Do not tie that story with some judgmental ideas.
Then comes adulthood, we start romanticizing things. We often please people, judge people, worry for every next minute actions and the future. The situation reversed when we reached adulthood. We stopped enjoying life. Or shall I say, we thought we should not enjoy life. We believed that to achieve something, we need to be serious in life. Least that is what we were told!!
The unknowing fact of same story between childhood and adulthood is the crushes and love we have. The only difference it made was the same no judgment vs judging people in a wrong way. If we liked someone in childhood, we approached them. We became best friends without knowing how to judge or express. But when it reaches adult stage, ah there it goes !! we get stuck in a trap for ever or turn to a different person we never thought of.
And then comes 30sssssss !!!! Are you settled ??? Are you married ?? How many kids ?? What happened to your career ?? Are you committed !!! Ah man these questions. How do you answer this if you are single and happy? You enjoy your career and do not want a tag. Still, you are looking for companionship. How do you answer this when you are still finding the right passion in you career. How do you answer this when you are not sure whether you want kids or not. How do you answer this when you are married but not at all happy.
The predefined questions for your 30s come with an extra set of questions. This just ruins everything already worrying you. Lucky those people are who can answer this confidently and not worry on what others think right !! We think we need to be like that. But we forget when something in life collapses in front of us at the right moment.
Someone dreamed of a happy life. Another dreamed of buying a home soon after their 30s. Someone else dreamed of becoming something in life. And we all know not everyone reaches there. The 30s are the hardest to cross. So many things are happening around you. Yet, you feel like life has not been moving.
If life was a movie for me!! Now someone has got bored with the story and paused it. Who will tell the person that there is something interesting coming ahead, you are missing something major. No one can tell right !! You just need to wait for the day when the person comes back. Then they will remember, “Oh, I have a movie to resume.” Tadaaaa!! why did I even pause this.
In conclusion, I believe my life, if it were a movie, would be a genre that is not for children. They would run away from boredom. Adults would cry for a while. Then comes the suspense! What happens to her, who knows let the future unfold and come back in 40s.
How true this is right… Silence does speak louder than words. Sometimes we have lots to say but if we say it may hurt others , it may create confusion in others or just get ignored totally. But lets say in those times we do be silent, people have their answers themselves but appropriate questions more with them.
Sometimes it’s easier to be silent than trying to explain yourself. Sometimes its easier to not prove yourself than becoming sad to expect people to understand you better with what you said.
But sometimes even silence can have a bigger impact than what you know already. Sometimes your loved ones just understand anything and everything just by your silence.
How beautiful it is to hear the waves beside the ocean when there is silence around. A heap of emotions up and down bringing calmness to mind and soul.
But sometimes the same silence hurts to the core , when you expect to hear some words.
Irony it is !!! we prefer silence when it is least required and we prefer lively sounds when it is the chaos created in the first place.
For whatever reasons it might be, I choose silence over the words !!!!
You have a bad day and you decide your future is done
You have a good day and you decide your future looks awesome
You have nothing in control but a mystery which only the future can unfold one by one.
One bad day can’t make the whole life bad. This is heard several times from everyone. However, what you never hear is how you do not make the day bad by just saying it.
Our life with its daily surprises or saturated routines does not define anything. That is true unless you keep waiting for something nicer to happen.
A predictable day looks cooler but it can be a nightmare if that holds the worst day for your life. Why to disrupt the suspense and we do our own mischief just to escape this maze of mystery.
The future looks dark when you think more and deeper. It may look brighter as well. What’s not known is whether the mystery will let you enjoy that moment or experience the sadness.
Each person can be a preacher in terms of life lessons. Everyone has a bundle of mysteries already solved in their own path. But none of these would be repeated or even looked at unless you experience it yourself.
Some days can be sad , happy , crazy, tough but it is what it is. You either drown or swim across it. Lets try to swim across but even if we drown lets try to raise back in style.
