“Don’t listen to yourself; listen to the advice that you give others.”

— Michael Lottner

“I know you come home with the same worry that clouds your mind every night. I know you are aching, and breaking, trying to hold onto the little hope that remains. I know you’re lost and confused, the doubt flooding your veins. But my darling, you weren’t born to be sure. You weren’t born to have it all figured out. You weren’t born to fit a mould. You were born to explore, to seek and to find. You are here to love, to hurt, to heal, not to be confined. You are here to create your own life, to not conform to a timeline. You are here to be 18, and dancing under the moonlight, drunk on cheap wine. You are here to be 25, to climb mountains and to swim oceans. You are here to be 40, to wake up rich in love, and be comforted by this through the everyday commotion. And you are here to be 60, to tell your story of a wild life lived. You are here for so much more than a job, a relationship or a degree. You are here to appreciate the wonders of the world and to make memories. You cannot tell me that age is important when the atoms that made you have taken billions of years to form you. So, to Hell with anyone who restricts you with their timelines. You are here, breathe in, and breathe out. You will figure it out and you will be fine.”

— a reminder to my 18 year old self, and anyone else who is lost and unsure.

“I never wish to be easily defined. I’d rather float over other people’s minds as something strictly fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person.”

— Franz Kafka

Gradually transforming in to someone without even realizing

The subtle changes

A deserted soul

Take a closer look

Do you see a beautiful girl or an invincible woman

Broken dreams

Endless hurdles

Thousand scattered pieces

Standing against time

The fallen one

Courage to stand against the wind

A tireless journey

My passion, my love

A dream of a love binding our souls

Trying to forgive the conspiracies of the universe

A mere particle in the galaxy

No one to anybody

These random thoughts

A maze, a constant trial to exit

Standing in front of the mirror

Trying to recognize myself

A feeling to shout to the world “You don’t know what pain is until you see yourself standing in front of the mirror, eyes red, running nose, messy hair, cheeks flushed, lips trembling, unable to recognize yourself, forcing yourself not to feel the pain, reminding yourself to breathe, requesting yourself to survive one more day, this moment is pain”

Thinking what scars are making me, what I am today or creating  a barrier for others

Whether they make me beautiful or just gives me a reason to shut the world out

Begging to almighty

Where are the emotionally strong ones

Deep below the surface

Loyalty, honesty, true words,true promises

Not playing with words

Strong, their eyes are the mirror to their soul

Pretence, not their cup of tea

The entire world behind masks

Where is a true soul

I crave for such humans in this world of lies

I desire a soul which is as strong as mine

Not the shallow ones

Connected to a level where our imperfections meet

There is a thing about them which makes me believe in love, loyalty, honesty

There is no reading between lines

So lost in the quest of success and love

I want to be numb to my feelings

I start to believe journey of life starts with me ends with me

This stage in life where I no longer believe in right or wrong

No black or white

No morals, only convenience

A captivating promise of a happy forever

An illusion of a perfect life

The fragility of relationships

Not that one question which was unanswered

But that one answer which lead to thousand questions !!

Today I saw u Not in the pictures Not  some stories from someone’s mouth My own eyes Holding someones hand, Hugging someone who is not me So how does it feel, to deliver the promises to someone else which were made to me Today again I cried Today again my heart bled The wounds which I thought are healed are still fresh !!

Nineteen things I’ve learned before I turned nineteen. 1. Always carry $5 and a lighter with you (even if you don’t smoke). 2. Ask every person you meet how their day is going. Genuinely ask with the soul intention of learning how their day is. Ask the coffee shop employee. Ask the person next to you in line at Walmart. Ask your distant friend. Ask everyone. 3. Take many photos of yourself. Take photos of yourself when you’re happy. Take photos of yourself when you’re sad. Take photos of yourself because there are millions of trees in the world, and we all look at the same sky, but there is only one of you. 4. Stay in contact with your parents. Try not to hate them. They are the reason you have the ability to feel anything at all. Try not to hate your parents. 5. Opening your skin will not set your demons free. Open your heart. Open your mind. Open your hands. 6. Nobody knows anybody completely. That’s okay. 7. Be gentle, but be aggressive. Take a stand. Nobody hears your voice if you stay silent. 8. Respect everybody. We are all humans trying to survive. We all deserve respect. 9. Wearing black will ALWAYS make you feel better about yourself. 10. Always give tips, whether it be a couple extra dollars or a piece of mind. You never know how much you could be helping someone. 11. Change is the only thing consistent in life. Do not allow that bother you. Embrace chance and move with life, whichever direction it chooses to take you. 12. Smile often. Smile at strangers. Smile at your friends. Smile when nobody is looking and you’re alone in your bedroom. Smile when somebody is rambling to you. 13. Body image means nothing. Your body is merely just a seatbelt in the car. Your body is here to protect you. You choose the direction you go, and your body will not hold you back. Only you can hold yourself back. 14. Don’t hold grudges. Don’t allow yourself to hate anybody. Forgive them. Learn to love them for the person you never got to see them to be. Believe that a beautiful human exists in that person. Wish them well. 15. Drink orange juice. Lot’s of it. 16. Don’t allow the opinions of others to choose your destiny. We are all simply trying to live our own life. 17. Sing all the time. Sing off key. Sing in a silly voice. Sing like you’re on stage. Sing no matter who is around. Singing is breathing for the soul. Sing. 18. Take time to think. Write your feelings down. Write letters to the people you love. Texting is overrated and not as heartfelt as a nice handwritten letter. 19. Live for yourself. Breathe for yourself. Do everything in your life for nobody but you. This is your life. This is it.
