I don't know what exactly it was. It probably was induced by post exam stress, sleepiness from the night before or crazy childhood chat with my sister. Something made me realise some important things during that night. I became aware of  the true feeling of being in gratitude. I'm truly grateful for my childhood, the fun that I had, the cartoons that me and my sister binge watched and happiness of our family. It made me take a stroll down memory lane. Now when I say memory lane, I remember everything, the good , the bad, the everything. I'm that kind of a person who remembers almost all the events that took place in my life and I never forget, I simply don't know why.  And because of this, some memories kind of linger with us always and I have fought my fair share to forget those so called "memories". It sometimes is as stubborn as me and it just doesn't seem to go back.  These event are my memories because I once cherished those moments in my life even t...

                        We are constantly in motion. Running, chasing dreams. And the midst of these motions we forget to appreciate the journey, the places that we have reached, the life that we have built and all these passes us by like a blur. And even though the blur is beautiful, clarity is amazing. We forget just to  pause and live in the moment. This, right now is all that we have, embrace that and move on, continue with your everlasting lust for chasing your dreams because you are to go places. Pause and reflect for a bit. You are nearly there. Don't worry.

Life is not something that you should settle for. You should never settle for anything. You are supposed to be moving, flowing and flying with the wind. Breathe in the fresh air of all the places that you want to travel to . This is a promise to myself,  you are never supposed to settle for anything. No one will ever cut your wings and if the do, you are going fly without them.  No one is ever going to stop you from reaching your heights and fulfilling your dreams . Life is truly beautiful.

The best example of friendship that I have ever seen is my dad's and his best friend's. They both go the extra mile for one another and it's just makes my heart warm. I have always wanted the same for me as well but sometimes it takes a lot of time to find people who not only say that they are going to be there for you , but actually put those words into action. High school gave me the best experience or lesson about this. The person you are can sometimes be defined by the people who you are surrounded with, and if those people are not compatible or goes in sync with your energy or vibe will only rub off their energy onto you. In this case,  I was nothing but naive person who didn't know the real me.  When I look back , I made many bad choices, and first were the group of  friends that I had. But I'm actually glad about those experiences because it taught me lessons​ on friendship, trust and choices.  And because of all that I came to the realisation that you are ...

I was never the kind of girl who ever wanted to be in love. And yet Cupid decided to aim his arrow on me and I didn't know what to do. It was the first time that something like that happened to me and I was way young. My so called friends all had their head up  high in the clouds and I kind of made the decision to fall in love. Who in the world ever makes a decision to fall in love? Me, that's who.  Well you get what happens next, I learnt to fall in love. And no one should ever learn to fall in love. We were the kind of souls who were never supposed to be put together and yet it happened. I always thought that being in love was this magical feeling and you are supposed to be happy. I learned it the hardest way, I changed my perspective on love. I told myself that love was not being happy, it filled with sorrow and dreaded fights from both ends.  You know I was wrong. Even I knew that I was wrong. And yet I kept telling myself this is how being in love meant. Soon afte...
