_Mind 2 Heart_

The first step towards healing is the understanding of your position in life. Acceptance of one's situation as it is without any form of manipulation marks the beginning of where things can only get better. T he pain in one's heart will teach us what the 'reality of life' is. But what we learn from the pain is what makes us who we are. It is truly a solo game which throws a spark of independence and self-respect. Self-respect  is the key. Sometimes I wish life was like a book so I could sneak a peak at the last few pages just to make sure everything turns out okay.                                                                                 -cried so many hearts! None of us can lead through life alone, but sometimes we need more independence.  Walk in your own path!  It's you who need to decide each step wisely. Many who started with you, won't finish with you. Even your shadow doesn't stay with you in the darkness. Those who are meant to stay

Something that comes up constantly and consistently is a paradox between the head and the heart.

Your heart is full, yet heavy. You have a lot of uncertainties and hopeless moments, but also feels like you know the answers, instinctually. It's hard. Why are we given the head and heart, which are so clearly to be in opposition ? Why do we constantly feel like we need to choose ?   Because it is likely that we are going to choose the heart. Again, and again - until our brains scream at us loud enough to be logical or reasonable enough. But,  do we really listen ? We hope for our hearts to be right. We keep playing with the f

You know, there are times when you feel dead. You're breathing and moving, and your body is fine, but your brain convinces you otherwise. There are moments when you feel like there's no life, no reason for any of it. You feel something, yet at the same time, you don't feel anything. You want to cry, but you can't. You want to take a shower or get out of bed, but it just seems like too much, way too much. Everything is heightened, and numbness engulfs you like you're its food.  And all you can DO IS NOTHING . Getting hurt is like getting a cut. It heals but it always leaves a scar. And it's inevitable. Maybe, life isn't about avoiding the bruises. Maybe it's about collecting the scars to prove that we showed up for it. Life never goes in a straight line. It's extraordinary. And sometimes a bit topsy-turvy too. But whatever it is, we must never forget that  one failure, one breakup, one rejection, one bad outcome   is  not  the end of the world. We m
