A Day worth Remembering

-

 Today 17th March 2022 a day in my life worth remembering

This day taught me the value of patience, hard work & resilience,

That it all matters at the very end, all those sacrifices, sleepless nights & second thoughts,

Each and every one of them was worth it.

 

 This day taught me the value of those who did not support me,

 That all of them played such a huge role in my life without even realizing that they were actually pushing me to bring out the best in me.

 

This day taught me the value of time, the value of each hour, each day, each week all of it,

That it matters, it is always up to me, If I want to spend an hour on social media or If I want to invest the same time towards things I love doing, like writing.

 

This day taught me the value of appreciation, validation & applause,

That even positive feedback from a stranger works like a key to that lock I’ve been trying to open,

Just a ‘congo’ from a friend I have lost touch with or a ‘keep it up’ from my teacher goes a long way.

 

This day taught me that value of perseverance that it matters

 The one extra hour I studied that day, even though I was exhausted,

That one extra question I solved, even though I was running late for that event later,

 All those times, I held back despite hurdles coming my way

All those times mattered.

 

This day taught me the value of discipline.

 Remember that day when I could not forgive myself for waking up late

That was not me hating on myself it was me preparing myself to be loved by not only me but the entire world.

 

This day taught me the value of the values and virtues I believe in,

My upbringing, just the way I think and whoever I am today is only because of my parents,

The values they have instilled in me that has brought me this far and that will help me achieve a lot more in life and fly even higher.


Lastly this day taught me the value of myself of me,

I am something to and I can do something, all my dreams, and ambitions, that I have it in me to actually turn them into reality,

I am talented and apart from everything I am ‘ME’, the only person I want to be in this whole damn world.

I am enough and the only person I need is me.


I’m back guys, this was something I wrote in my journal a few months ago and if you were wondering what day was 17th march this was the day of my 10th board result for the term 1 examinations. I was in a very different mood that day, and I loved what I wrote so thought to share it with you guys too. I hope you like it. That’s all for today😊

XOXO

My Idea of Beauty

 My Idea Of Beauty More often than expected we are all told to be a certain way. We need to look a certain way and behave a certain way to fit into these predecided standards of our society, in so many aspects of life and in ways that sometimes feel outrageous.I wonder where these notions have originated from and when we all became so used to these beliefs. Just a few days back I got really upset because somebody I know said something not so good about how I look and now looking back at that incident I do not know why I reacted the way I did. Maybe in my mind, I think of myself as this strong woman who is not affected by such trivial issues which perhaps I am not. And then I also muse on the fact that this is all a consequence of how we all grew up always giving importance to external beauty much more than we give to other things which do hold a lot more importance. And it's become kind of a cool thing to say that "looks don't matter to me" but do we really mean it wh...

Someone was so proud of me Today!

 Hii Mahi, Today I am so proud of you, so proud of you for being who you are and believing in yourself, for trusting your instincts, and always for just being you and nobody else. I just want to tell you that please remember that no matter if anybody ever supports you or not I will always be there for you, I will always be just a pen away, I will always be just a keyboard away. Every time you express yourself, all those moments when you refuse to fit into the conventional standards of pre-decided societal norms which were relevant a long time ago but not anymore you make me proud you bring a smile to my face, and my eyes sparkle as if I just saw a golden retriever puppy passing by on the streets down the lane. You are unique and different from anybody else I know, you are confident, you are brave and most importantly you are human. The empathy you hold in your heart for not just other people around you but all creatures on this earth, that fire I see in your eyes every time you s...

FAME- A Double Edged Sword

  Marilyn Monroe once said, "Fame doesn't fulfill you. It warms you a bit, but that warmth is temporary". And that is so true, I haven't come across a single person in my life who doesn't seek fame, who doesn't dream about being famous and popular. All of us like to be admired and loved by others in society. We are pleased when people appreciate our work. I won't believe you if you say that you have never in your life envisaged yourself as a famous celebrity, getting out of a rolez roys luxury car with all your fans screaming your name. I do myself remember how a 12-year old me had visualized herself being an A-list Hollywood superstar, collecting numerous awards, traveling the world but I do also remember being unaware of the dark & sad parts of this so-called fancy celebrity life because I do not remember me being trolled or people passing hate comments if something goes wrong in that dreamed up world of mine. Ohh! How could that be because we aren...
