You've to Choose Yourself

-

Hey! How's it going? Looking out for other people, being a people pleaser, constantly thinking about your actions and everything just because they won't get hurt, how's it going?? Being always there for others?? Isn't it pleasing how just a person keeps going?? They don't make the slightest effort for themselves but make sure everyone is happy. How's it going?? Giving everything until you've nothing? In this process did you forget that you are someone you love too? And if you don't then please let me remind you of those moments, happiness isn't always about great things those are in small things. Happiness is making your perfect coffee, it's hearing your favorite song playing in a public place, happiness is a baby holding your finger, it is hearing your parent's voice after a long day. Those small things aren't tiny, they are the things that make life much more beautiful. Happiness and peace are when you think about those moments you would never get over it but you did it. Those moments of happiness are the ones that make you love and accept more, the moments which are worth opening and being yourself. 

What if things are not going the way they should? What if they do not appreciate you enough? What if you are putting effort and choosing something or someone over and over but they are okay with letting you go? It's alright!! I know it's not as easy as it sounds. We go through hardships, we scream, we cry, and we die internally. We think that we won't make it, at that time you've to remind yourself, of the time you thought you won't make it, BUT YOU DID!!!! It's okay to cry and it's okay to shatter but don't forget to pick yourself up. What if they are not appreciating you? Appreciate yourself for the person you are becoming, for accepting your flaws, and for the fact that no matter what happened you kept going. Appreciate yourself for having the courage to be YOU in this fabricant world. 

You try your best to hold onto something, your hands get bruised and you think maybe that's your queue to leave from the things or people that no longer serve you, the ones that distance you from yourself. Maybe not now but in the future you will find people who appreciate you, love you, and accept you as you are. But for that, you've to choose yourself first, you've to BECOME that person. Choosing yourself is not being selfish, yea it takes a lotta courage to do so...but when you start doing so life becomes much better. Sometimes it's okay to do something for others but when it starts hurting you, you've to release yourself and say "I am choosing Me." I hope you have the courage to wake up every day and choose yourself.

we've always been

I feel we, as humans, have a terrible habit of attaching our self-worth to certain things, people, situations, or anything we find fascinating at a particular time in our life. I don’t know whether to find it fascinating or ridiculous when, at one point, we felt betrayed or unworthy because our best friend treated us a certain way. Or maybe you didn’t do something you always wanted to something you believed you were capable of and ended up failing. The next thing we know, we’re deep down in the tunnel of agony, thinking about where it went wrong and why it had to happen, contemplating our whole life. It’s weird because when I was 18, I had it all figured out in one night, and suddenly I’m 21, and the world is not what I thought it was. “Adulting is fun,” they said, but they never told us about the responsibilities and everything that comes with it. They told us the world is yours to conquer, but they never mentioned the sacrifices it requires. They said you just have to go out and get ...

home.

" Sometimes, home is just two arms holding you." But most times, it’s a place where you can finally let your emotions out. A space where you know- yes, things are hard right now, but I’ll be okay. A space where you're not obliged to be anything but yourself, where you can simply be until it feels lighter. Where no one yells, no one makes you feel like a failure. Sometimes, home is within you- but you have to build it, slowly, by breaking every norm others build around you. Maybe it’s walking into a café on a random evening and reading your favourite book. Getting ice cream at midnight. Running through empty streets just because you felt like it. Dancing to your favourite song by yourself, barefoot, smiling through the tears. Telling yourself, “you did great today.” Maybe it’s holding yourself through the chaos. Taking care of your own heart when everything feels like it’s falling apart. Making sure you are loved. Making sure you are heard. Maybe, in the end... maybe hom...

one random tuesday?

 We spend so much of our life hating ourselves. Not doing enough. Not being enough. Not looking a certain way. Always blaming ourselves; thinking why things couldn't be different?? and then, without even realising, it just… ends. maybe on a random tuesday. And in that moment, we don’t think about what we could’ve done better. We don’t sit with the “what ifs.” we just look back and smile. because yeah, it was hell- but we did our best. Funny thing is, there were days we hated how we looked, right? But then one day while scrolling through the gallery, we stop at a photo we once couldn’t stand… and suddenly, we whisper, “wow. look at her.” Healing isn’t loud. It doesn’t knock on your door with fireworks. it’s hidden in these tiny, ordinary moments the ones that remind you: you survived, and that’s enough. So maybe today, go back to an old picture of yourself. look at her. That version of you was trying so hard. It deserved love, even then. And now, they deserves your pride too.
