The Journey Begins



Everyday is a new beginning. Take a deep breath and start again — Buddha

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. I am excited to have you join me in this amazing journey. 
post


So here I go.
We all try our best to live life. So many experiences, opportunities and  lessons throughout our lifetime. I have been lucky to have had a few experiences of my own. Learning to live through those has given me a different approach towards life. What is life all about or rather what do we make it out to be?
Join me as I explore various topics about life, relationships and hope.
Take a moment to read and I hope something resonates with you.
Happy Reading!

Thoughts

Photography by  Aris Yanuar Setianto @ https://www.pinterest.com/ You don't have to control your thoughts, you just have to stop letting them control you - Dan Millman That voice in your head. Constantly telling us what to say, do and think. Constantly running. Never stops. Most of us live in our minds. We all do talk to ourselves whether we recognise it or not. Repeating things over and over, reminding ourselves what we need to do next, sorting out details or running through various types of scenarios that may never even happen. We define that as being prepared or being worried for what may occur. We are always occupied internally unless we are drawn into something external that is more interesting than what's going on in our heads. We get distracted by this external stuff for a bit and then we immediately go right back to where we were before. We think so much that sometimes we  become unaware of our surroundings. Engrossed in whatever is...

One of those days

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/288371182382627385/ Ever had one of those days where you don't feel like talking to anyone and you just want to be left alone? I have and these are the times when people feel the need to talk to you and have meetings and discussions.  You look unusually quiet and everyone wants to know what's wrong. There is nothing wrong. But just the lack of interest or energy to hold a proper conversation or to be your regular self. That does not mean you have fallen into depression. However, if this continues and is on a regular basis, please do talk to someone.  We don't have to be chirpy and positive all the time. There will be up and down days and we have to accept that we do get moody. Just because we project ourselves to be chirpy does not necessarily mean that's how we feel internally all the time. Sometimes we know the reason why, such as an arguement that happened the previous day or something that didn't go as you ex...

Suppressing emotions

Are we suppressing our emotions?  We do this regularly starting consciously not wanting to hurt another person and later on it becomes an unconscious habit. We keep consoling ourselves "It's ok, they don't mean to hurt me and they are just venting." or "They are just angry and they will realise what they said was wrong." Are we convincing ourselves and giving reasons for why someone can treat us badly? Sometimes we think that we are protecting them. Are we protecting them or enabling them to continue to do what they do to us? If someone else is important, aren't you as important too? The moment someone says something hurting, our minds register it. However, we don't want to believe that they would hurt us. We don't want to believe that they are pushing us away. We don't want to believe they are self-preserving.  Shouldn't we preserve ourselves more? Shouldn't we treat ourselves better? Are we not worth it? Are ...
