Self Realization

One fine day you wake up and you feel numb, you don’t feel any energy or zest within you, you don’t even feel like talking to anybody.

Why? Because last night was extremely painful and miserable, and not just last night but several other nights, and all of that suffering resulted from the choices which you made throughout your lives.

Is it just me or anyone else can relate to it too? Well in the real world these sentiments are termed as depression. to be honest i have been advised by my family, friends and acquaintances to consult a therapist, and i do admit to visit a psychotherapist once but it was of no help.

Why? because I knew what was happening with me, I was ignoring myself, I was escaping from my own reality, I needed to consult myself first before anyone can consult or help me ever.

So before this pandemic happened, I voluntarily opted to quarantine myself, to take a break from all the outside noises, and to listen to my inner voice, I chose to calm that anxious energy in me all by myself.

I had got so many questions but no answers, I realized that nobody would ever be my rescuer but me, I was looking for myself in others, I was seeking my truth and my worth in others.

And somehow while surviving, I became this pretentious being who was just following the norm, and not what i actually really want.

I found myself writing in the midst of all the misery, aches and suffering. Trust me the emotional agony and pain is as difficult as the physical pain of letting go of all the vanity and luxury, but what really helps, is the fact that I can go unabashed and express how much and whatever I can, and feel good at the end of the day, rather than feeling hollow and listless, and yes it is just the beginning of my new journey.

Self Discovery: is it important?

  Seldom have we found ourselves in the midst of monotony, only if we stop and question our state of mind from time to time! What is it which keeps us going? Is it our goals? Fear of unknown? Or is it our liabilities? In order to survive we do need to pay our bills, however to be able to cater our emotions we must understand the why of our existence. What make us unique from everyone else around us are our individual experiences and our response to those obstacles or opportunities which we face along our journey. Our intellect is the supreme entity but for it to function on an optimal level we must bestow it with a map which will ultimately provide us with various strategies to navigate our lives according to our priorities. From where will we find that map? Through our knowledge, experiences, the people we meet, the kind of principle with which we lead our lives. Life becomes droning, because we have hemmed in ourselves from exploring the plethora of knowledge, dif...

Chasing Love or chasing what you love?

I call myself a nomad; a wanderer, I am mostly living in my imaginary world, the outside events just keep happening around me, and I most often tend to get succumb to those,  I feel such experiences over powers me into becoming this peculiar personality who is lost in her own world; aloof and not surrounded by the crowd. But when I sit with myself and ask what is that I truly desire, the only answer that follows is love! In search of which I’m running around like a maniac. But what kind of love and why love ? The basis of such un heard of mind-set develops since childhood and then it grows with external experiences, however the internal chemistry remains essentially unchanged no matter what happens around you. Life is always going to be unpredictable and challenging, what makes you, YOU! Shouldn’t change, one can evolve and learn but your core remains unaffected. Every time I end up chasing it I question myself why? You don’t need to run after it, it’s within you. It’s ...

Getting hitched? To opt for it or not…

  I being myself had finally come to this conclusion…it’s a prime question indeed a shocking one to me, and to everyone around me, only a few very close people know about it. I am 28 years old now and it’s not like my biological clock is ticking and I am getting old and weary. It’s just that I have gone through my own share of learning experiences and so called phases by relying on everyone else for my happiness and my peace of mind. Well that’s life, and this is how one learns and evolves. It’s not like I don’t have any dreams and aspirations and I have just reconcile myself to compromise and live my whole life like a homemaker. It sounds too funny, as that’s not in my DNA to become docile and sit at home but voila I have been doing this for 2 years. I won’t say it’s boring and tedious, it’s fun and creative too and it is a 24/7 job. Unfortunately little due is given to a homemaker who does her job (majority of them are women) in our culture. On the contrary some pra...
