Set Of A New Dawn!

Hey everyone! Umm, I don't know how to start, but it has been a long time. It has been months since I last wrote. Let alone write; I almost disappeared from the blogging world. A lot has changed in these few months. I think I gave the same intro in my last post as well. But, this time, the changes were catastrophic. I, never in my life imagined I could go through something like this. Well, to be precise, my life turned upside down this year. It changed overnight. If you know me or follow me on social media, then you definitely know I got a job this year. Yes, I'm super grateful for that, and that is a good change.

You must be wondering if everything is okay, then what do I mean by "catastrophic changes."? Well, if you know me somehow, then you also know I had a long-term relationship with a very special person. He was a part of my life for eleven years. Okay, how do I say this? We broke up. Yes, we are not together anymore. No, I don't have any hard feelings for him, and I wish him all the very best in his life. However, the whole breakup experience was quite traumatic for me. I never imagined it would happen, but the universe had other plans, and it happened.

Nevertheless, I have some wonderful people in my life who held my hand and helped me through this whole process. I may sound like a whining teenager to you but trust me it's hard. I am 22, and I had my entire life figured out, and then everything came crashing down, which shattered my heart.

Some of you might also want to know how am I now? I am trying to put my broken pieces together and just live my life. I don't want to think about the past or future. I want to feel each moment I am living because you never know if you'd get the chance to experience it again. The two things I am trying to learn are self-love and prioritising myself over anyone else. I can proudly say now "I choose to make myself happy, and I won't feel guilty about it."

So, that was it. The major life update I had to give, or you can say I'm giving myself a closure with this post. I don't have any idea what I wrote and if anything made any sense at all. What am I hoping for now?

Well,

Walking through the lawn,

 Looked back at the life I've drawn,

I smiled, a little withdrawn

Walked ahead towards the 

Set Of a New Dawn!

Fear- Is it a blessing in disguise?

Hey guys, what's up? So, for this blog post I decided to write upon a topic which is related to every single being on this planet- fear! If you say, you don't fear anything then chances are you are lying. Now, a question which often makes me wonder is whether fear is a boon or blessing in disguise?

Fear- What is it to you? For me it's an emotion which can take control over our lives if we let it. We have the power to keep it in control. Fear is a natural human feeling. Every human being fears one thing or the other. We all fear of losing our loved ones or things that have a sentimental value. Someone fears death while someone fears life. But, will we let fear control our lives? Absolutely not, instead we can take it in a positive way. Everything in life has two sides: positive and negative. You either see the glass as half empty or half full. I'll prefer the later. While we fear losing our loved ones we know at the same time that we'll lose some of them in our lifetime- be it a person or a pet. This prepares us mentally for that kind of situation. It makes us stronger and better. Fear of failure pushes us to work hard and follow excellence. Fear of death makes us more acceptable to it because we know one day or the other death will come to us.Some of us may fear of living alone but we may have to live alone at some point in our lives. It prepares us for that also. We should not let fear chain us up to a certain place.

As the saying goes "Fear has two meanings- Forget Everything and Run Or Face everything and rise." The choice is yours. You can't let fear conquer you and put you inside a bubble instead you should conquer fear and break the bubble. Fear makes us brave. Also, remember "Our largest fear carries our greatest growth." You got to decide whether you want it more or you are afraid of it more."

Don't let fear stop you from living and don't let it conquer your dreams. If you look into the eyes of fear then fear will fear you and leave. I think we all got the answer to my question that fear if taken positively then it can prove to be a powerful blessing in disguise.

A Letter To My Younger Self.

Hey everyone, what's up. So, for my next blog post I decided to write a letter to my 16 year old self who struggled a lot with everything. I'm not writing this to gain sympathy or anything. I just thought of sharing something which I think may help a lot of young people who are struggling with some issues. This letter may come as a shock to many of my family and friends or more than shock I'd like to say surprise. It's extremely personal and close to my heart.

Dear Airene,
                     Hi! How are you? Though I know the  answer to this question but still I thought this would be a good start. Life is miserable I know. You are sixteen and you are consistently failing in everything. Your grades are dropping. You are confused. Your friends are leaving and nobody understands you. You are suffering from major depression and anxiety. You can't sleep at night. You feel like ending your life and there's nothing for you to live with.

Trust me, girl you are wrong. Those sleeping pills aren't gonna help you. Why are you harming yourself? The people who made you shed tears aren't worth it. Trust me, you're going to realise it a few years later. You've got your parents who I know is a little overprotective now but trust me you're the world to them. They've got no one except you. You have got an amazing boyfriend who loves you unconditionally and will be with you years from now. You've got your best friend who is willing to go against the world for you. You have got a mother like cousin who loves you like her own daughter. Don't keep things shut to yourself. Open up, talk to someone , get help. Those grades on the paper doesn't decide your value. Eventually, you'll do what you love and always wanted. You'll be happy and content in life. You have lost many people and Thank God you did. You don't need them. Learn to love yourself a little.

Trust me, life's gonna be a thousand times better than what it is now. You will still struggle but you will overcome it like a boss. You'll be stronger and better. You will have people who will love you with all their life and you'll love them back. They'll accept you for who you are, what you are and how you are. You are going to be a die hard animal lover. You'll have lots of pet.

So, gain lessons from these experience and start living your life. You don't want to miss out on so many awesome things. Trust me, life is short and worth giving a shot.

                                                                                                                                     Yours truly,

From a better, stronger and happier

Your  21 year old self.
