A Letter to My Younger Self
Dear ME,
It's after all a long time you have thought to self- evaluate yourself.Its okay to take some time.Amidst the rare chaotic days,it's better to knock at your heart and mind and ask whether everything is going fine.By God's grace let's settle this down..
This life which you have got is a wonderful bowl of salad with all the ingredients such as family, friends,the society and the peer group which is mixed up with the spicy,sweet and tangy dressings representing our emotions.When everything is mixed up to the correct ratio ,it makes up a good meal.At the same time if you've added some spoiled ingredients or the dressings too much you end up emptying it to the bin.Yeah that's same in human life!
When there's too many pessimistic people around you and your emotions being too negative you just give up yourself .You give in way to worry,sadness and depression to over attack you.
So it's time to prepare an inner war within you; against your negative emotions, thoughts being fed by pessimists and the thought that"I AM NOT CAPABLE OF..."
Let us take this life given by Almighty too granted…
There are so many people who are yearning to be with their families and spend some time.You are so lucky that you have the possibility to enjoy a cup of tea with everyone being seated around at home.
Give your time for a good book ( I prefer motivational and inspirational books rather than fictions and novels).You are at a time where technology is at it's peak and you have access to online books..But a true happiness for a bookaholic lies in holding a book in the hand whilst couching somewhere pleasant.
Learn something new that once you wished to do and which was in your wish list.
It can either be trying a new dish or else to plant something if you are new to gardening.
Feed your body and mind spiritually and physically.Get connected with your religion as there lies an inner happiness which this worldly pleasures couldn't give..
Being organised brings a real vision to life.Bringing our living space into an order and making changes to it can really impact our lives positively.Rearrange the cupboards, book shelves and make your own self corner to spend some time.Either bring down a favourite pot plant or do some decorations that suits your preference
There's more to write but I hope it's enough for today and hope YOU are blessed enough for more than what you lacked....
You are capable!
You are beautiful!
You can get through this!
Take care of the inner soul in you!
