Wise-dom installment (#1)


"Sometimes, when it seems that the world is against you, it is tempting to side with the world" Brick Lane by Monica Ali
This is true; but to that I add- Hold your head up high, and walk ahead to your unknown future, for the pain is in the broken past, but the future is yours to build.


When life hands you one thing; don't think that it's the end all and be all. From lemons we get lemonade. As corny as it will sound, sometimes the closed door to our faces alerts us to an open window, or to doors and windows that were open all the while but we didn't care about those. Amidst the fall out, I’m heading back to the open doors I left behind.

Life goes on. You hurt, you lose, you confuse, you become confused, and you move on; move FORWARD. Looking back just makes things worst don't dwell. Dwelling festers the wound, and from that we never find the cure. Don't shun your scars from past hurts; they make us who we are.

For all those you've hurt, ask forgiveness.
For all those that have hurt you, give forgiveness.

'An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind'- Ghandi. Speak on that!

Lol. If you've lost something, someone that you thought was concrete, learn from it. Strengthen your foundations with the people and things that do matter and are worth your time and energy.
Remember the ones you lost, forget the past hurts, disappointments and frustrations.
Cherish the ones you still have; appreciate the days, months years and precious moments you have with them.
Anticipate the ones that will come into your life in the future; the lessons to be learnt, taught and the impact to be made on both your life and theirs from just knowing.

Sometimes we forget who we are, because we are torn between what we were, what we don't wand want to be and what we hope to become.... settle the storm of anticipations, fear, regret and uncertainty and just accept and improve on who you are now... if some people don't like you for you are, and repel you I bet you there are others standing behind you loving you just the way you are.
