My backbone, my foundation is my family. There first time I had a heartbreak was when me and my best friend ended our four year friendship. I never knew that it could hurt so much. I used to cry myself to sleep. I was depressed. But what made me to keep on going was what my family told me. They told me no matter what we are always going to here, even though we cannot understand what you are going through, we would always be here. And that's how it has been  till now and forever more.  The reason why I am who I am now is because of all that. I was hurt, I made sure that would never put myself through so much hurt again. I would not put my heart out for anyone to temporarily come and take shelter there.  It not yours to ever be there. You are not welcome.  Since then I have had this series of heartbreaks. But I made sure that I would never put myself through that  again. I am forgiving and yet I am not. I know that everyone around me don't understand this plac...

Don't ever dim your light You are meant to shine brighter than anything you have ever seen People are going to question your every move along the way Many adversities are going to be on your path If you are going to find reasons , people and circumstances to stop you, you are going to find plenty But why should that even matter Why should any of that ever matter if you have a dream,a dream that makes you feel alive and that which you want to accomplish. So don't ever stop shining brighter than ever before.    -  from me to me and to anyone who ever needs it

Stand up for what you believe in even if no one is there by your side. Lend your voice for the ones who cannot. Stand up for yourself. It takes a whole lot of courage to say that you believe in yourself and to believe in what you believe in.  Stand up for others and yourself if you see anything wrong. Don't just squirm up back to that hole when it's your turn. Stand up even if you are trembling with fear.  If you have a voice that's going to break the surface, let that out , even if its a little whisper so silent has its own power. Stand up for what you believe. 

Don't overthink, just do it. One of the best thing I ever did was to start this blog and as always since I have master's in overthinking I  decided to doubt about starting it. I thought who would ever want to read what I have to offer, what would I write about?. I didn't get all the answers to my questions then and some I haven't even found yet. The love for writing was much more than almost all the questions that was disturbing me then. So, I started and never looked back. I have had days were I was unmotivated to write, I accepted the days as what they are and I have had days were I felt a sudden rush of motivation and I saw them for what they are. People are going to question you along the way. What you do don't have to be liked by everyone and you don't have to agree with everyone.I have been asked by someone to "just stop writing, why are you always writing?" Well, I'm doing something that I'm proud of and I  don't think anyone could ...

People are like books. It's true that we shouldn't judge a book by it's cover. Screw that, we all get attracted and wants to buy that book that's colourful and has that shiny exterior bind to it, that book with its edges lined with that shiny light gold thing( to be honest I don't know what that's called). But then we read the kind of summary that's on it's cover, (hmm interesting, I think I should buy it). Well if you think that people are like books, then that summary that you just read are the things that are exterior of that person, the things that everyone knows just by a glimpse. If you really want to know about a book, you read it ,and you go through the lines carefully, one by one.  There are books we just want to read and get on with it, honestly because we have spent a whole lot of money for that ,there are books that we just want to close it and never get through it , some we hope we never really brought, and some we want to always read over ...

 When I was way little, I had to learn a subject called moral science. It mainly consisted of stories that had a moral behind it. One day there was a lesson about beauty and what was written in it was that beauty is what is inside. What is inside your heart. That's what that matters. Some years later my dad told me that looks never matter. It's what is inside. I was never that mature to understand how wise those words are. I am a firm believer and I believe, it's what matters on the inside. Beauty is skin deep. Beauty is the way that you treat another person, the way you show kindness and compassion towards another. Beauty is the kindness that you show to another regardless of gender, religion or anything else.
