Strength does not come easy. It requires inner effort, time, patience and a lot of hard work. But it is not necessary for an individual to be strong all the time, 24x7, 365 days a year. It is okay to sometimes break, to let go, to caress your scars and heal your wounds. It's not necessary to always be upright, ready to face the world. Because God knows that it's in these moments of weakness that we truly understand who WE are. Who our people are.
The reason for this picture is because today, I have strength. I have the strength to acknowledge all that is wrong with my life, all that needs to be set right, all that is gone and all that must go. Today, I am proud to say that my inspiration is no one else but my own self, because to give up takes one second, but to fight every single day of your life and still have the courage to love all those around you, that's incredible. I have struggled on countless nights with no respite, breathless, aching to catch a break. As those who know me well will understand, it has not been easy. But it was never meant to be easy. Gaining strength is never meant to be easy.
And that is why I have decided to take up an initiative ; to inspire others through all of the resources that have helped me cope, and still continue to. See it as a group activity, inspiring both you and I. Starting from today till the end of this year, I will be posting articles, pictures, stories of people who I randomly found on the internet, things that have magically left me headstrong, and secure. This world needs a little love and sensitivity. And most importantly, all those who are fighting similar battles need to know that someone's there. I'm there. And I'm ready to lend a helping hand.

Looking out the window of the hospital room and munching on egg Parantha and pickles, I think to myself - what is home? Different people have different perspectives and mine is probably the same as many others out there. Home is familiarity, home is safety, home is love and protection. But what if your Home is constantly tumbling and falling and resurrecting like a phoenix out of the ashes? Home is stability, home is trust. But my Home.. my Home is more of a wreck. Every night my body aches with this odd sort of uneasiness. Like a part of me wants to escape. I know where it wants to go.. I do. But reaching that destination and finding a place to stay is a far fetched thought. You see, my Home is found in the most unstable of places. In my broken relationships, in my search for myself, in my lack of true friendship and in my uncertainties. My Home is not home at all, if we go by the dictionary. Funny thing is, my Home and I.. our feelings aren’t mutual for each other. It rejects me...

Prejudices

The truth about life is that it isn’t fair. No matter how much you cry or beat your chest about it, karma isn’t going to come to you in person and hand you your rewards. There will be an ample amount of unfair difficulties in your life, but the only way to cross them is to accept the injustice of it. It’s the only way to get past it. Once you realise and respect the fact that it is not something you can control, and that it will continue to exist no matter how much you wreck your brain over whether you deserve this treatment from life or not, things will get easier. Often, you end up giving all that you have within yourself to the wrong things and people. And when the time comes, and you are faced with the unfortunate reality of heartbreak and betrayal, the real problem does not lie with forgiving those who deceived you in the first place, but with forgiving yourself, for being naive enough to invest in something that is now the reason your world is falling apart.   ...
