Better Yourself

     "If you have time to feel sorry for yourself, to complain, to check social media, to binge watch Netflix,  then you have time to set goals, work out, prioritize sleep, make a list of  things you re grateful for and  better yourself" by @Jay Shetty I came across this quote recently on Instagram and this is so relatable to us. Every person has a bad phase in life. If a person says that his/her life is perfect, know for sure that he/she is lying. Life cannot be perfect and it is this imperfection in our lives that makes life worth living. It isn't always important that every step we take in life, every time we decide on something, every time we dare to take a risk, we will succeed. Success is difficult and every time you achieve something with ease, know that you'll value it less because you did not go through all that it takes to achieve it and more importantly you did not face enough hurdles to value it enough.  When we decide...

Friendship

Dear Stranger Thanks for introducing me to the word called friendship. I cannot thank you enough for all that you've taught me. Love, affection, faithfulness, motivation, and most of all, loyalty. It is so easy to start liking a person, but it is difficult to accept the same person for what he is along with his good and bad qualities. We often forget that there is nothing that is perfect. Humanity is imperfection and we, as humans are the perfect examples of imperfections. So why do we keep looking at the negative things in others? We do, because we think that we live in a world where we are perfect, where everybody else is just as simple as us, where there is no politics and no corruption, where people who appreciate us mean every iota of what they say. We forget that the world is a spherical illusion but like Oscar Wilde said, " it takes a great deal to see the world in all it's tainted glory and still love it", we fail to see the tainted images in ourselves. A f...

You can do better

Have you always been this perfect? Has happiness always been this easy for you? have you never ever faced any hurdles in life? Does a small and simple pen gifted by dad never give you that pleasure? Is getting love and attention the only motive in your life? Are you that simple a person? Or are you just a strong person with a simple intention? An intention to show others that you are happy, so nobody gets a chance to see the real you, nobody gets a chance to see what you're actually going through. You are strong. Print this statement in your head. "YOU ARE THE BEST" because if you can't, nobody can. You've been so strong that you never let others know what you've actually been through. You've been that rock that shatters only when it falls down the cliff, not when it is moved or displaced by some mild wind or gush of water. Life has been so hard on you that you no longer feel the pain within you. Life has made you tough, not because it was hard, but bec...

Women's Day

Do we really need a special day to celebrate women? Is it really that small a deal to be a women? Is it really that delicate a topic to create controversies? I say NO! Being a women is a blessing. With no offence to the extremely supportive opposite gender, women today are undoubtedly no less than men. Name a profession and you have a lady there. Gone are the days when women were the delicate, beautiful, submissive, stylish, ornate homely beings whose sole intention was to keep men happy. Today, women know what they want from life. They define their boundaries and definitely know what exactly they want from life. Be it a homemaker or an HR, women are breaking the dogma and going out there to prove themselves, to achieve their aim. Today men and women go hand in hand and needless to say, men are also the supporting pillars for their wives, sisters and mother in every field. This is something that should be appreciated. Of course we cannot ignore the male chauvinist part of the story...
