Do you ever try to find out what calms your soul?

Do you ever question yourself that you’ve got everything you wished for, you got a life you dreamt of but what is it that’s still missing?

We do not have an end to our desires, we wish for something, get it,  want more of it without ever being thankful for what we already have.

 I feel we do not thank enough, we do not count our blessings enough. 

We are so deep into the shackles of the society we live in and the lives we have chosen for ourselves that we often forget to take a break, breathe, and look at the bright side (I am sure there’s always a bright side).

One doesn’t have to stop being ambitious in order to be humble but the need to understand which desire is guiding you to growth needs to be recognized.

The soul stays calm when you understand what you have is not what everyone has, what you have is what you wished for, prayed for, worked hard for.

Don’t let it go! It isn’t worth letting go! I know it’s really onerous to constantly expect you to look at the bright side but life does get easier when you start counting your blessings.   

In the end, whatever we do in life the goal is to feel satisfied and not settled!

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...
