When going gets tough, tough gets going!

Read some where, " God gives the toughest battles to the best of his soldiers " and this single line definitely was a morale boost for someone like me when i was going thru the worst.  While i was going thru a constant battle between love and self respect; battle between social stigma and individual space; between being selfless and selfish; or maybe between being happy and being content; this simple yet strong thought gave me strength to become selfish enough to save Self respect and individuality and stand alone, fight for the correct than succumbing to the stupid social stigma of loosing self respect in the name of being loved! It was definitely one of the most encouraging thoughts that caught my attention even in the state of despair and acute depression. And helped me to regain the lost confidence and bounce back with an impact! Today, when i look back on the journey, feel proud of myself, though still not sure how did i get through all; but yes, learnt the most imp...

It says it all!

Luck by Chance!

We all have some wish list, and there are certain things every individual wants so much, that (s)he does every thing to make it happen, prays for it to happen , but it never happens due to unknown reasons. And at the last, when (s)he actually leaves it, everything in the universe starts conspiring to make it happen. Earlier when even tiny things were going haywire, suddenly everything becomes a cake walk. May be that's the time when Destiny had planned it. May be that was the moment, when it was meant to be.  There are instances we feel, which are the worst things that can happen to anyone in life; but as the time passes, and we get to see-through the events, we realize the same incidents were the best way things could happen.  Do we simply get luck by chance or is it all written; decided by the Destiny ?

And it went by in blink of an eye!

Tomorrow, it will be an year when i stepped into this city. Can't believe its already an year ; feels like the whole year went by in the blink of an eye! How fast time flies.... We generally say, Good times fly away quickly while the bad times move at a slower pace . And since, this year passed by so quickly, shall i deduce "That was an year! " . May be yes, i can say that.  An year back, both my Angel and Pole star, had commented that this move to new city will embark a new journey of life. And they had made the perfect prediction . Definitely, this was a new era of life for which the first step was moving to this peaceful city. The new place, new people, and the new challenges restored my faith in the beauty of life; somewhere brought back the lost confidence in humanity as i started walking through the new paths. And this confidence and faith encouraged me to do a lot of things for the first time.  Learnt dancing and overcame the fear of dancing publicly.  ...

Lessons to younger self

If you could talk to your younger self…  What advice would you give her about lessons you’ve learned? Was randomly surfing on internet, came across an article on women empowerment which ended in the question mentioned above.  What advice would i give to my younger self , about lessons i have learned over time ? 1. Best thing about life is , it never stops, it just keeps going on. Hence never ever think, what will happen to you or your life if someone ceases to be a part it. Nothing stops life from moving on, whether you like it or not.  2. Time heals everything, everything means everything!  No pain, no wound ever exists in this world which time can not heal. Time is the best cure. Let it heal you, cleanse you in its own way.  3. Never ever ignore your intuition.  Being a woman, rather being an intuitive human, always trust your intuitions. They will always guide you in right direction.  4. Life is a puzzle, sooner or later everything fal...

A curious case of Split Personality!

All i remember in the recent months is, working like a robot ignoring emotions, feelings, up to an extent health too. Every day starts with a random song on phone, then get ready and leaving for office, listening to music on the way, reaching office, having breakfast and then start the day at work. by the time i have a look over my watch its already lunch time; at times i forget that my body needs food too! Have lunch, take a small walk after lunch, go back to work meetings and then a tea break. Again a few meetings and back to home. Change, refresh and be seated in the balcony with headphones, feel the breeze , speak to mom have dinner , read a book and go to sleep! That's been my routine for past few weeks.  So mechanical, so into oneself, with everyday i feel am loosing the power to deal with the shit of the world or may be am saving myself from all the people around (to be understood as negativity around). It's difficult to decide which of the two things is more applicable...

Friendship

"Be slow to fall into friendship; but when thou art in, continue firm and constant" - Socrates True that is!  Friendship is something which needs understanding, knowing each other inside out, being non-judgmental, reading each others minds/face; and definitely all these things need time. You can read someone only with time that too quality time spent together. Nothing else can replace this.  But once that understanding bond has developed, there is no comeback. Then even miles don't matter, nor do the days of disconnect. Whenever you talk or meet, it feels like forever.  Sometimes, a single good friend is enough for lifetime, while some lucky people, they get plenty.  As psychology states, If a friendship lasts longer than 7 years, psychologists say it will last forever. Well, for me both My Angel and Pole star have been my friends for more than 7 years now, so am glad they will be there forever for me!!! :D
