It’s okay to be so not fine sometimes,⁣
It’s okay to be ruthless and hate everyone at some point,⁣
⁣It’s okay to lose your shit,⁣
It’s okay to guard down that strong ass image you carry,⁣
⁣It’s okay to tuck your face in the pillow and cry for hours, and moreover, it’s perfectly fine to cry over that reason again and again until the point you are so strong that you can finally let it go and you are comfortable enough with the arrangement life has given you about that particular situation.⁣
⁣Life is not easy and it will never be but that is what makes it interesting and keeps us going.⁣
You play a game online and what makes you so entangled in it is how it keeps getting tougher and all you do for your survival is conquer the difficulties and eventually emerge as a winner.⁣
That is what life is like, things spice up when life gets tough. ⁣
With life, you’ve choices. You do not necessarily have to be a fighter at all the times, sometimes all you need to do is calm down and watch the show, make and break your own rules, play it for fun rather than for winning. It might turn out to be an absolute pleasure and a moment of contentment.⁣
Remember that there is a lot to live than few things that are bothering you right now, they will all be gone in some time, you know you can get over it and in the end, you’ll be all you’ve got. ⁣
So make sure to appreciate yourself, treat yourself and don’t forget to love yourself when times are rough.⁣

SEEK PLEASURE IN SIMPLICITY

We as a generation are a set of people who are usually confused, terrified, uncertain, over-optimistic/pessimistic, trying to have it all, commitment-phobic because of lack of worthy examples to look up to, or because our relationships perished sooner than a glass of milk.  I have said it before, and I'll say it again! We do not express gratitude enough. We do not appreciate the little things in life. We are too busy working towards and looking at the bigger picture that we miss out on the comfort and beauty of reality.  The pandemic has taken too much from us already, our loved ones, our normal lives, and our will to socialise. It's high time we start acknowledging the things that we generally do not give enough credence to. It's due time we start smiling at the simple joys, as the big ones aren't happening like they used to.  Appreciate the ones who even make a faint attempt at reaching out to you from their equally busy schedule. Do not hesitate in reaching out to pe...

Jack of Crisis, Masters of Denial

  Sinking in the sea of crisis, human-made, situational or self-induced. We aren't looking for solutions anymore. We aren't wasting time sulking. We are straight-up pushing it all to the deepest, darkest, rarely visited corners of our heads. After all, living in denial still counts for living, contrary to facing the feelings that leave you lifeless. We are eating, drinking, sleeping off or sleeping with the crisis. Pretending to be as unbothered while denying the fact that it burns like a gin and hurts like a bitch. Faking, hoping to make it. Skating through life while the fire within simmers only to erupt when least expected.

Life, Choices and The Opportunity Cost

  I am a planner. I love planning, but, unfortunately, planning doesn't usually love me back. From the earliest of days, I have had this compulsive need to plan the hell out of my life. Planning is my comfort zone. My biggest pet peeve is not knowing what next. Naturally, I hate bizarre concepts like surprises; they are a series of misarranged and chaotic events. Neither do I understand, nor do I appreciate the thrill of uncertainty.  But being a planner, I understand the importance of making choices. I understand that life is choices. At every step of the way, you're presented with at least one. You can be as cautious as possible, as mindful as you want and as aware as you think, but no level of planning, no length of pros and cons list can ensure that the choice you are making is the right one.  I studied this concept called "Opportunity Cost" in school. By the book definition, it goes - "the loss of other alternatives when one alternative is chosen." Ever...
