Look behind the veil

Life is a bunch of mixed experiences.
Experience is the best teacher we could ever ask for. It gives valuable lessons nobody in the world could teach you. Some people are often immune to understanding sensitive and intense situations till something serious happens to them. 

One fine day, I bumped into my schoolmate on my way to home from work. We got nostalgic recalling the golden memories we had left behind. We talked about life in general. Then she shared an interesting anecdote with me which compelled me to broach up this topic and know your opinions or experiences similar to her.

Here it goes. On the condition of anonymity, lets assume my friend's name as Kia. One of Kia's neighbourhood friends argued that hardships of life are not to blame for causing emotional disturbance, aggression and depression in a person. You are the only person responsible for any damages caused to your state-of-mind, behavior and personality. Kia had a diffferent perspective on this. And considering the confused, fake and selfish relationships that our society is plagued with, I agree with her. 

No person is born angry, bitter, submissive, weird, immoral or a recluse. The family atmosphere plays an important role in shaping your mind and body functions. Then comes friends, followed by school, institutions, relatives and later the entire society. 

The turbulence, turmoil, trauma, tyranny suffered by a person right from his early years with no confidante or reliable person to turn to for help makes even the most ethical and strong-headed person feel powerless, hopeless, vagrant and sometimes even unintentionally go astray without being conscientious about the consequences.  

There is a shattered faith of theist in every athiest( p.s. I have pure faith in God and have experienced his powers during dark times). There has been a soft-hearted, loving, jovial, selfless and caring person behind the veil of a stone-cold, insensitive, self-centered egotistical individual.

When people have given their 100% efforts, sacrifices and hard-work to different aspects/situations of life earning nothing but ingratitude, betrayal and abandonment. This lack of reciprocation makes them build hard walls of ice to never trust further and never let their guard down. 

Therefore, circumstances are indeed powerful enough to mould a person into a different personality altogether. However, despite the trials and tribulations that test your patience and strength from time to time, it is your strong will-power and faith that carries you safely out of the dangerous dungeons of life. You must heal your wounded heart with determination and self-confidence. Retain the beautiful and positive essence of your soul. Never allow anyone to steal your smile.

 A person looks more captivating and enchanting when he smiles with happiness that knows no bounds. I wish my friend Kia and each of you going through a tough phase- the strength and blessings to cross the bridge with full faith in self and the supreme power of God.

**Love and Light**

Be A Rebel- For the Right Reasons

Courtesy- QuoteFancy "Unless you stand up for something you want really bad, chances are you won't get it." "If you always abide by other's rules blindly, you can't create your own." Being a rebel is good because you create a haven for yourself, a world where people are free to fall, get up, make healthy mistakes and learn from them. Nobody is pressurized to be a perfectionist. Everyone is a romanticist where we create free-flowing patterns of theories and fields we hold expertise in. This is a place where a fire of innovation and invention is burning with intensity in everyone. This is a safe haven where people get goaded to perform better by watching competitors excel. There resides a wrathful passion and perseverance in the inhabitants. People flourish with the ebb and flow of creativity. Nobody is made to feel inferior for whatsoever reasons. We groove, gym, giggle, groan but never growl at each other. Once we promise our word, we stand ...

How to move beyond failure toward success?

What is holding us back from being successful? The fear of making mistakes  The fear of getting judged The fear of getting mocked at The fear of failure The fear of losing despite trying very hard Don't be afraid of trying, trying, trying till you succeed. Always believe in your potential despite a hundred unwanted people telling you otherwise.. Always keep the flames of self-motivation burning. Parents, please do not humiliate your kids when they make mistakes, Sit them down, respect their efforts and humbly tell them the lesson hidden in that failure. It is very important to learn from your mistakes and rather than cringing at them like a bad chapter, consider them shapers of your increased confidence and strong character. Stop listening to the voices in the outside world of those buzzing in your mind. Dictate them your achievements, no matter how small or big. Do not let anyone bog you down by reminding you of your embarrassing moments in the past, Sho...
