Can you imagine happiness of the highest pinnacle? Being able to cherish every moment as if its one’s last? Always seeing an upside to every incident that takes place which normally would put anyone else in a bad mood? Being able to trust yourself so much that anyone’s opinion of you does not matter at all? If you messed up, you did, but at least you learnt and that process building the inner trust more and more. Imagine this process repeating again and again and again every time you stumble. The strength of that inner trust then becomes unbreakable. You are free. Free from the shackles of ‘What will people say’ or ‘The society does not permit this’. Free from being unsure, from those internal conflicts that keep you up all night. Free from the fear of losing your self-esteem and confidence in any situation. You see the highest happiness you can achieve is from Freedom. The freedom that comes from just trusting your instincts and your gut. The freedom which actually means being in control of the situation. Being in charge of your own life. Knowing why you are the way you are. Being the best judge if something is out of place or its just the way you like it. And that’s how it should be. You calling the shots in your own life and feeling free to express yourself. Then your happiness knows no bounds and you become simply unstoppable. That’s the end goal anyway, right?
Who am I?
Who am I? What is my essence? Does a quality that defines just ‘me’ exist? Like salt is known to be salty and sugar is known to be sweet? Like every ingredient brings its own flavour to a dish, what’s mine? What is the flavour I bring with my existence? Can I choose the flavour I want to be? If I do choose, does it contradict with me being myself? Maybe I am not supposed to choose and its been within me all along? Can I be broken down to something so rudimentary that my uniqueness becomes evident? Will I ever know who I am? Like salt is known to be salty and sugar is known to be sweet?
The Ocean and the Moon
Why can’t we be like the Ocean? Owning up to ourselves? Acknowledging the presence of the sand grains, acknowledging it’s love for the Moon? It’s spirits are so high, it rages with all its might at the glimpse of the moon lit sky! Why can’t we trust? Like the Moon trusts the Ocean? It never is disturbed by the closeness of the Sun every Dawn and Dusk! Why can’t we keep our promises? Like the Moon, never failing to show up, shining so bright that the Ocean can’t help but blush with it’s glisten? Why can’t we be patient? Like the Ocean, always welcoming the Moon’s presence like it were never gone? Why can’t we be like the Moon and the Ocean? You and I?
