Letter To An Older Me....

Dear Older Me,

When you look back at your life from where you stand now, you feel happy and crazy to do everything you did then. You are still not afraid of taking risks. You still love fighting, especially for your rights. You're more confident, more successful and more content with how your life is.

You are now more stable, emotionally and mentally. You can handle things better. Hopefully you cry less, dance more and can handle alcohol better. You hate nobody and have atleast 2x times the friends you did then. You still love Maggi and Coffee.

You are now a proud owner of a car, a wardrobe full of belts, bags and shoes. And also those Jimmy Choo's! You still  love yourself as much as you did, infact even more!

Hopefully, you're more sensible yet unpredictable, more mature yet childlike, more content yet competitive, more organized yet messy and more loved.

Even if you're not all of the above, remember, you were and you still are the best!

Lots of love,
Younger Me!

Let go...

Sometimes when you’re lost, you need that one thing to show you directions. When you can’t find your way out of a dense maze, you need that one beam of light. Most of us feel like that all the time, so do I. This is not an attempt to pass on any learning or gyaan to people around me, I’m sure you get that all the time. It’s just a little bit of sharing and a little bit of venting. I recently discovered that the directions I look for, more often than not, only I can figure out. The beam of light that I need, frequently, comes from within and not anywhere outside. 

I believe in myself, I believe that my life will steer the side I want it to. Nobody has control over how I feel, the more I feel sorry for myself; the more miserable I will be. The more I encourage myself, the more self-motivated I will be. There’s no point in holding anybody else responsible for the happiness or grief you are facing, it’s neither the circumstance nor an individual, it’s by choice. Make your choice, be happy, be content, love unconditionally, dance, sing aloud, let go, cause trust me, you’re truly blessed with everything you have.
