Sharp Curve leads to..?

-
As a child, I used to wonder how elders are so tolerant of the downsides of life!

Let's explore the life, the uncertainties and the emotional cycle that comes along with it, and how one becomes 0.00004% immune to conditions like these. What are uncertainties? They are the truest friend and enemy of our lives, they tell you the sorrow is not going to last, and also warn you that neither happiness can.

Since childhood, I have been a very competitive person; if I want something, I will work hard to any extent to get it. When I don't get the expected outcome, it makes me feel belittled. Cut to today, it is still the same. I plan, I wait, and uncertainty comes to my face, reintroduces itself, and makes me better. Being an emotionally driven person, having uncertainty as your best friend is not a combination to yearn for, but then this is life. A commitment that was to be fulfilled, with no warning signals at all, and you planned everything around the completion of that commitment. If that commitment comes to a dead end, how would one react? Heartbroken, cursing yourself that you believed in the commitment! Well, that's what we do, keep replaying in your mind how your trust has been broken, breaking your heart into a hundred pieces.

Somewhere on the sharp curve, expecting it would be scenic but realising there's a dead end is so electrocutioning in itself. Your best friend has trained you over and over again to disguise the dead end as a new pathway. So, you are heartbroken, yet ready to aboard a new path with not a revenge mindset rather redemption mindset. As a matter of fact, you know people treat you based on who they are and not for who you are, and you can't do anything about it. Keep your head high and keep moving! For uncertainty is the only truth, the sooner you understand, the sooner you will be able to restore peace within you.

Now, being an adult, I have a minuscule knowledge of how to be tolerant.

Weekends – A Love and Hate Situation!

  All week we wait for them. And when they finally arrive, we sometimes don’t know what to do with them. A bucket full of clothes waiting for washing, drying, ironing, and stacking. Preparing clothes for the upcoming week. Doing 10K steps. Pretty much that’s how a weekend looks for an average corporate person who doesn’t have close-by people. Jack and Jill went up the hill, nope. Here it is Jill, going down the hill! It’s Tuesday and you are already waiting for the weekend to arrive, for you are planning to do some fun-loving things on those days, maybe going out to play badminton, going for slow evening walks in the breezy air, having a good meal. All these things would be so meaningful if you had the company of your friends. But apparently, we all are busy in our own ways; it’s just that our wants are not aligning with the people present around us. It’s finally Friday, yay!!! Or nay?? Let’s see how a typical weekend unfolds. Friday evening, the stay you planned with one of your s...

To the days when you are stuck in vicious cycle of self guilt. It is the major reason for our sadness, we plan to do a lot of things and end up doing nothing. Every wondered why, so? Maybe the thing you have planned to do is not pleasing you enough? Maybe you are not disciplined? Or maybe you do overthinking! The moment you say in your head to do a certain task, it gets noted and when the time comes and you being you, delay it for further time, that is where your self -respect takes a hit and you go into self-guilt. Self guilt takes you to self loathing and then all this is too much to bear. Eventually to relax your mind, you do binge watching or binge eating. Now this self guilt isn't improving us, but hurting us mentally and physically.  Simple thing is keep a piece of paper with you every time, remember a physical note, carry it with you, note down the tasks on it and keep it with you until all tasks mentioned in it are completed. You all must be thinking, we can do it with virt...
