Goodbye 2013 :)

2013 has been one of the best years of my life. It taught me so much. I made lifelong friendships and ended some that weren't healthy. Realised that nothing lasts forever, may it be Joys or Sorrows. I have felt the most extreme joy but was also slumped into sadness for a few months time or maybe a couple of weeks. But in my lowest lows I always learn my greatest lessons. I have learned to care less about what people think of me. Their judgements are between them and God. I have learned that I cannot control people's gossip or lies but can only be who I am and prove them wrong. I have learned how to hold my tongue when all I want to do is say ugly things. And I have learned that forgiveness is the key to happiness. There's a reason people hate change and that's because it's completely unknown. I have never walked more blindly in my life but I appreciate the faith that comes with it. There are things I will never know or understand but one thing I do...my quality of life depends on my ability to be vulnerable, forgive, and love. And I have never regretted loving someone. Be kind 2014. I'm looking forward to you.

Here is my year in pictures:

Goodbye 2013,

You shall be missed. :)

I'd like to thank all of you for making my life so beautiful.

Take Care.

And have a Happy New Year !!! 

When a change is necessary !!

I’m sure all of you have been through this one phase in your lives where you suddenly feel that you’re not what you were and you suddenly become unhappy  with the way you’re living. I have been there too. I hated myself and what I had become. I failed to recognise myself and I was frustrated, guilty, hurt and confused. Just then, I came across a saying that read “If you don’t like where you are change it. You are not a tree !”

I reflected on it and put it into action.

These lil pointers helped me, I hope they can be of some use to you too :

BELIEVE : You have to know it in your heart that you can make your situation better. Trust in yourself ! You’re mind is a powerful weapon. Stay positive.

CREATE OPPORTUNITIES : Sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it. Like the guy? Tell him !!! Want your dream job ? Go for the interview ! You don’t like the way someone is behaving with you ? Open up ! You don’t like the person you have become ? Change yourself ! You don’t need results, give yourself a bravery award – You tried.

STRIVE HARD : You can’t expect your life to magically change. You need to work as hard as you can in order to better yourself and your life. Make a list of all that you want, create a deadline, make that your aim. Say a firm NO to everything that drives you away from your aim. You want a better tomorrow, no?

GIVE IT A CHANCE: Let go of all the emotions and pains. They don’t belong to you. You are amazing. Give yourself a chance. Like i said before, BELIEVE.

FIGURE IT OUT : If you wish your situation was different, change it! You have the power to make your life worth living. Has there ever been a person or event that has changed your life for the better? Contemplate on that event, Spend more time with that person. Find someone whom you can confide in, someone who knows you well, Someone who believes in the better you. Ask him/her to guide and correct you. You cannot always win a battle alone.

PRAY: That’s what I did, and always do. I believe, that whatever you ask in prayer with faith shall be received.

 ALL THE BEST :)

And do let me know if this helped.

You could also mail me your suggestions and queries. 

Have a nice day ahead !!!
