reach out to your naked soul. when you find it, do everything you have to, to make it stay.

[ieunoiaa]

indispensible

have you ever met someone that can calm the fire in you. people that spurn our bellies and make us pugnacious are easy to find. ever met someone who could put you to peace? put you to sleep?

we need to retire after earning all the monies. ever found someone who could hug away your fatigue?  someone who can dismiss all your troubles just by being there? someone you can go to. someone you can call home. 

if you did, do not hurt him. do not push him. tell him he has saved you. he has completed you. hug him. kiss him. love him. 

hey you, 

do not hesitate to shine in your brightest shades, you ought to know you are the best. you are a catastrophically beautiful person, be you. 

i want to tell you that, you are the warm light of hope that everybody yearns to keep it by themselves. and i am the lucky one.  i have you tucked in my pocket for always. and i am not letting you go. 

[ieunoiaa]

go get it

never be afraid to change your life for good. if your past endeavours have failed you miserably, it doesn’t mean all your trials would come crumbling down. everything happens for a reason, you would realise that later. you must have the audacity to take risks and embrace the outcome. afterall we get just one life to give it all in, so why live in mediocrity. live on the edge. be the best version of yourself. try and become. become what you always wanted to be. let go of all your insecurities and give it a shot. you can never fail. there is never any failure. each attempt gets you closer to excellence. the latent perfection. and you will have it. in time. you will earn it. you will be all you wanted to be. and more. lot more.

embrace

[ieunoiaa]

I don't know how you feel fully connected to your surroundings. You start to react to each call as you become more observant and go in the direction of attaining inner peace and the bigger meaning to life. There is a sense of gratitude and feeling of sheer joy when you come across fellow beings and things around you that radiate at the same frequency as you. At this point, everything inspires you and you just want to pause and soak in the peace and positivity.

How this other day I was telling myself that social media is a plague. It acts as a deterrent to our growth rather than helping us advance in our endeavors. Sure we learn and experience a lot of things through it, but it is only helpful to the extent we are competent at the art of time management. 

I end up scrolling and wasting my time on social platforms more than I should. It stresses me so much. All it involves is what people are doing in their own lives and how they can prove it to everybody else that their lives are better than all the rest. We live in such a people-pleasing world. I am not blaming anybody, I am also a member of the same community. 

I want to imbibe positive values. When I think of the advantages of being active on social media the cons outweigh the pros and I know this is the right time to do the much-needed thing. Quit. I should get off this menace and try to learn new things through books and other online portals. The time I waste on the internet, I can make it up by trying my hand at something new. Like calling up a friend I haven't spoken to in a long long while or bake that dessert I wanted to, indulge in DIY, clean up. There is just so much to do after we shut out all the nuisance from our lives. 

I love to click pictures of the things that inspire me and that I connect to. I plan to make a journal of these visuals so that I can be in my best spirits whenever I sift through it. I also tend to stick my collection around my home, to give it a personal touch, my identity. It's highly essential for me to make my living space as connected to me as it can be. It is amazingly inspiring to live and function in a positive place, which truly recognises your person. 

So in a nutshell, I am going to contract the time I devote to social media and Facebooking and instead indulge in creative pursuits that actually aids in making me a happier person. Plus will keep updating this space as it feels so light and better to jot down what my mind is blabbering. Until tomorrow.

There’s always one person who loves more, bleeds harder in the relationship. The one to endure pain with a sparkle in the eye. The one to say the first sorry and the last goodbye. The one who compromises with a smile. 

They hold pride in the relationship and not in their ego. They live for the other person. We have weak hearts. We are so habitual of feeling hurt and dismay that our meagre souls can’t digest love for long without having its after effects. We flutter with joy and get off balance. We can’t think straight, we are so carefree and natural. The true you. Love pierces through our impermeability and we flow with love. People in love lose themselves in the euphoria. They lose touch of the externalities. They forget life is a perfect amalgamation of imperfections. Love like any other thing needs to be cooked, made, remade with constant efforts, effortlessly. We can’t shut out the needs that arise from true love. We need to try to make the love last with us. We need it to stay to make us warm. We need it to feel more intense, breathe more freely, live fully. 

To keep the balance and love with us all the while, the one needs to take in charge and be the fighter, the risk taker, the giver, and a total hero in the relationship. That one is created by situations and circumstances, the one knows the power of love and wants to keep it. The one strives to love, to be loved in times of grief. The one remembers the taste of love and stays unrelished till love is served again.

There is so much beauty in being raw and just the way you are. Without the covers, the make up and the filters. There's more to you beyond the artificial.

[ieunoiaa]

Miss. Needy.

Would you wait till I come back? Would you be able to talk to me at 3 in the night maybe 4, when I am feeling like shit about myself? Would you still be able to love me when I grow very fat and have breakouts; when I'm not even close to your idea of “pretty” will I still be your idea? Would you still try to make me laugh when my company starts to bore you? Could I ever bore you? Hadn't thought of that. Would you bake chocolate chip cookies with me like you did for the first few weeks trying to get in bed with me? Would you still do it? Cook? Clean? Clean after me when I am drunk out of my mind or just not in the right state of mind? Would you do it after all this while?- Well, you don't need to. Stupid people idealise love like it’s the most perfect thing in the world. It’s perfect in its own imperfection. Like you’ll never get sad. You know what, it's bullshit. It’s crap. without the stench. But worse. For sure.

See there? I don't make sense at all. I am not even supposed to, who the hell in his/her right mind write at 4 in the morning? At such an odd hour? Well, in my defense in some parts of the world, its one of the most productive hours, it’s 10 am. People are roaring, offices are springing and love is cheating with naive innocent people on some park bench, some cafe, through pillow talking or something as minimalistic as a text message. 

Well, I don't want to be untangled by you, I’ve grown quite comfortable in my complications. Then, what do I really want from you? A helping hand, a listener, a navigator because I have a poor sense of direction and if you don’t help me, I’ll be lost, forgiveness. Forgive me when I wrong you because I would never intentionally cause you hurt. Hold onto me through the days when we don't talk after the big fight, because you know it or not, you're on my mind. I will make it up to you, if not today, I promise tomorrow, day after, even after that, till the time I have the capacity, over and over again. Forgive me for the pain I’ve caused you. It wasn’t a lie. I know this cracked us up. I’ll repair it, make an inlay. with all your choicest fillings. I know how much you love colours, you’ll love us too. 

I cant sleep when we are not talking, I cant shut out my brain who keeps blabbering, role-playing. Help me out and forgive me, take your time, I mean it not-meaning it, I hope you know what I mean, just come back soon to me. Forgive me, cause I'll never say, you always sulk at me coz I have a horrible ego, it doesnt help to admit it, that I am gonna need you; like I did a day before the math test, you taught me all day and night till I learnt the numerals, when you sneaked me out from my house on your bike in the middle of the night to get me ice candies, when you got cakes made of biscuits coz you loved it when I appreciated your creativity, when you put so much of hard work in making my birthday special for me where only a handful turned up. You embraced my insecurities and whispered to me how beautiful I was till the time I got the confidence to say that to myself. So hey baby, come back to me, because I might get lost. It’s a dark dark world, and my favourite yellow lights flicker a lot.

P.S. (Just for her)-forgot about the  post hand cutting fury. till next time. much love.

The world is waiting for you.

Meeting new people and indulging in gripping conversations can uplift you in incredible ways. Befriending someone alien gives you an absolute fresh take on things. Change your company and you gradually shift to a new way of living. It broadens your horizons, incentives new adventures, new love, new hope, new faith, that life has more and more to offer. You realise, there's never an end to opportunities. Change your mindset, your friend circle and you have a new path in front of you to explore. Never hesitate to make new friends. Don't hold yourself back to spark new conversations and interests. There's so much to explore and we have so less a time.

[ieunoiaa]

As it is proved plans are better executed if they are written down, so I happen to have faith in some principles that will guide my New Year and I am sure will be helpful to everyone else too. 

- Maintain a positive mindset. Believe in your dreams and your capability in achieving them.

- Start a nightly ritual. Jot down your main goals for the next day and list the positive things that happened to you that day before going to bed. End the day, with gratitude to wake up next morning with enthusiasm and fire to achieve new heights.

- Be unreasonable with your expectations. Go out of the way to help people and care for them. Be monomaniac in your approach and put in ‘extra’ effort in your task.

- Surround yourself with energetic people, the go-getters. Company makes a man, choose your company wisely. 

-Trust your instincts. Take chances, shatter your fears. Be bold. You have all the qualities to make it large, all you need is the eye to see it and the effort to utilise them. 

- Early to bed early to rise. 

I hope this New Year proves to be the absolute best year for each one of us. Lots of Love :)

I don’t know why do they believe everything that is told to them. Why can't they deny the so-called fact and possess the ability to figure out themselves. Everyone is born to achieve something great and extraordinary; ergo, they must not settle for mediocrity. Stop following the beaten track. There's no fun in being the person they already predicted. Do the undone. Do what you want. Strive not just to become the person you look up to, but more. Create. Learn to not adapt. Reshape, rethink, alter. Crave the change you need. Then change it. 

This New Year do something new, which was familiar to your heart but not recognised by you.
