People Pleaser

Yes, you are kind and respectful to others. Yes, you care about their feeling. Yes, you try to make them happy with your efforts. There is nothing bad in it. . But what if your this habit becomes obsession. And that destroys your own self-esteem and mental health. Starting from frustration, to feeling helpless in expressing on thoughts and opinion. It all happens when you ignore your own happiness for people. Be kind always to people but not at cost of your own self-esteem. Set boundaries and stick to them, that's a fair deal. Moreover, you don't need to prove your worthiness to every person. We can't satisfy all of them. So it's good to set the boundaries and never drop the head.

Past Life

Image
  Do you have a past life? Certainly! Our life story has been progressing from the day we are born. Always, our story is partitioned into three phases; past, present and future. Past was once future and once present. Present was once future. Future will become present and then past. The chain proceeds. But when your past continues to be your present, your will lose both your present and future. We all have endured so many past life trails. Some might be good, some might be bad; some might be successful, some might be failures; after all these trails, we are still standing in the present moment with all those we have. Let me ask you a question. Are you happy about your past? Are you satisfied with your past? Do you have any regrets? Are you a prisoner of your past? To be honest, I was once a prisoner of my past life. Just because I kept on clinging to my past, I lost my “present happiness”. Even though I tried hard to resolve the past, I couldn’t make it. Past is what written with a

Differently Abled Woman

  When I was a small kid I used to deeply think why girls/women are treated differently in most aspects. There were times when I wished I could be a man in my next birth. I know stories were my friends used to share with me about how badly they want to do those things that a boy could do. Now I giggle at my old meek thoughts because now I only wish to be a woman in my next birth. This isn’t just about me or my schoolmates, most of the girls out there would’ve at least wondered why they are treated differently. Some may say it’s because girls are really special- a one of a kind angelic and pure. I wonder what makes women so angelic from the rest of the men population! So when and how a woman is treated differently? Generalizing from my childhood and that of other known facts, treating differently starts from our home. Women are mostly expected to do what they are asked to do so. Indian society blatantly believes that the goodwill of a family depends on the female members of a family. Th

 Do you think there is a certain age at which maturity sets in? Could it be 20? 40? 70? In my personal experiences, I've observed that age has little or nothing to do with it. I have met young people who are mature well beyond their years, and I've known older folks who act childish. If you ask a dozen of people what actually maturity means, you will get a multi dozen of answers. Definition of maturity changes from person to person. Well, let me share you my views on maturity. Maturity is the ability to think, speak and act your feelings within the bounds of dignity.  Its about; the way you see and understand things the way you consider others the way you communicate the way you react the things you value the things you entertain Ultimately, it is the way you represent yourself ! Talking less, stubborn nature, selfishness ..................... these are all antonyms of maturity(my personal opinion). Being matured never demands you to be strict always or to speak less. Our matur

Power of positivity

Imagine, you planned to go to Maldives(any of your dream destinies), your first and foremost foreign trip. On the very next day, at this moment, you will be flying to the wonderful land of blues. You are super excited. Suddenly, you got a message that all the flights to Maldives are cancelled due to some reasons. What would you do? Will you call the airlines and then shower all your anger? Will you choose to be depressed for the next few days? To be honest, we can't predict the way we respond in such a situation but remember one thing,  if not today, definitely on some other day; Maldives won't run away anywhere ! Positive thinking is a mental and emotional attitude of expecting good and favorable results, and not getting discouraged when plans do not proceed as expected. A positive frame of mind brings more harmony and happiness, improves relationships, and attracts success into your life. It is a mindset that you can build up. Such people, are confident that they can overcome

Simplicity

  In thinking about and dissecting simplicity, I’ve come up with a few things that I know to be true. Living simply entails stripping away the nonessential and focusing your time and energy on the things that matter the most. Living a simple lifestyle allows you to see the reality of the situation more easily. Your mind is less stressed because it has less to worry about. It is easier to make a wise decision when you know your principles in life. You only say yes when you can and firmly say no when you can’t or don’t want to. It is often in the simplest things that we find true happiness. You will find that simple things such as walking, looking at the clouds and smelling flowers can make you so happy. A simple life gives you freedom from issues in life that should not really be of major concern. Simplicity will make you more open- minded. Once you see how easy it is, and how much happier you are living an unconventional lifestyle, you will become more open to change, uncertainty, an

Advice for life

Image
  Most of us hate advices, am I right? We want to be adviced when we need it. And sometimes, an advice can change the outlook of our lives. Here are some advices for life ! 1. You will meet a lot of temporary people in your life, it's okay to remove them who always put you down in life and walk away. Trust me, that's not your fault. 2. Never let go off people who genuinely care about you, help you grow and put every single effort just to see you happy. That kind of commitments are very rare. 3. Not everyone is going to be your friend. Don't trust people and their words blindly or get too close and love them deeply until you know their true intentions. 4.Don't ignore the everyday signs which your parents give you. They might be cold towards you sometimes but they really love you from the bottom of their heart. 5. You will face a lot of broken friendships, failed relationships, shattered dreams until you finally become a wiser and stronger person. That's the truth of

Surpriseeeeeeeeee

  Do you love surprises? I just love to surprise others and being surprised.   Surprises add spark to your relationship and communicate how much you care. It adds even more nourishment to your relationships. It’s how you get peoples’ attention and delight them so you get them curious and excited about what you have to offer. I would like to share with you an experience from my real life. One of my best friend’s birthday was about to strike. I had no idea about what to gift him but I had to do something unusual.   I came across online shopping sites, searching for wrist watches, key chains etc etc…I wasn’t satisfied with any of those. After so many reverberating thoughts, I decided to do some handcrafts. I never utilized my time for handcrafts till then. I thought it was not my cup of tea.   I came across so many you tube videos and finally I decided to make a scrapbook. At first, it was so tough to take measurements, then to cut the papers, designing (basically due to laziness😜)……

Who Holds The Key to Your Happiness?

Image
  I wasn’t happy for the past few days. It was not because of me, but of someone else. I put the key to my happiness into someone else’s pocket. Let me tell you, depending too much and expecting too much from others will disappoint you to a bad extend.  People say, "don't expect too much because expectations are the sole reason for all our disappointments". But in fact, we do expect from our closest ones, right? I do so. Sometimes we let other people control our happiness in life. Whether it’s a romantic partner that we’re dating on or a friend that we’re spending too much time with, depending on someone else to lift your mood every day isn’t healthy. In fact, it’s detrimental. By putting your happiness in the hands of other people, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. I mean, everybody else is so busy focusing on their own stuff that it’s not smart to rely on other people to pick you up all the time. They’d probably end up neglecting you and making you feel

People change; that's alright

Now-a-days we depend more on social medias for constantly maintaining a rapport with our dear ones. As time passes, some unpleasant things may happen. Gradually, everything turns upside down.  It starts with late replies, then ignored messages. The distance becomes greater and the talking becomes less frequent. Every time your phone lights up, you hope it's them or at least, you wish it was them. If not checking up on you, just saying anything at all. Because yesterday you asked them how they were, and day before yesterday you asked them how they were, and the day before that too. How much more you can do right? How long will the conversation be one sided? So you start to care less about what they do out fragments of them linger in your head. "What did I do so wrong", you didn't. There's nothing wrong with you at all. People change, when their need changes but remember the times they were nice to you and were there for you instead of the bitter memories.  It is ha
