With the busy lives we lead, especially as dependent on technology as we have become, it is easy for us to lose our main focus in life which most importantly should be on ourselves. We have become so wrapped up in everyday routines which can lead to “going through the motions” not giving a second thought to ‘who we are and why we are here’. Losing our self-awareness can impact the quality of our lives in such a way that if we do not turn inward and question why we are here, then we may not discover our true selves…

I wanted to write about gratitude in our lives because we often take things for granted without giving a second thought to what we have or what we have shared with others. Gratitude is the appreciation of people and things in your life. Take a moment to stop and think about what you are grateful for. Surprisingly, it is the smallest moments that we sometimes remember the most. And, oftentimes we don’t even realize they are happening till much later when they have become a memory. We are so busy thinking about what we will do tomorrow, next week or next year,…

Yes, love can be scary, it can be confusing, and it can be terrifying. But if it wasn’t all those things, then it isn’t love. It’s true what they say about love and how it can be a complicated subject to talk about. So much so, that we still don’t know any more about love and how it works than we did 100 years ago or even before that. It’s an age-old problem, this mystery of love. With all our smart technology and advancements in the modern world, nothing is more baffling to us then the human heart and the unsolved…

Your heart has no logic or reasoning power like your mind. It never tries to change your mind or advise you against something. This is because your heart already knows how you feel. It speaks the truth every time. It is the very core of your existence. It is as simple and sacred as that. Your heart is the center of you. It is holds the key to your life. Your love, your dreams, your hopes, your wishes, your fears all reside within your heart.  It holds all your softness that allows for feelings of kindness and compassion. It makes you…

We are all worthy of love, but convincing ourselves of this fact is where it gets tricky.  There are so many factors in our lives that have told us otherwise, our environment, work, family, friends etc.. That we start believing all those other things and stop believing in ourselves. We have this notion that we must be perfect in life and until we are perfect, we are not worthy of good things happening to us. This belief is already flawed simply because no one is perfect in this world. No one. So, if we operated on this belief alone, then none of us would be worthy…

Most people think they can spot an introvert a mile away, but introverts are not that easily recognizable. In fact, most introverts may not even be aware they are introverts themselves. Shyness is not always an indication of a true introvert but rather introverts work off energy and whether their surroundings are giving off positive or negative energy. Some facts about introverts that may surprise you: 1.) Typically, being an introvert does not always mean you are shy or have a fear of interacting with others. Yes, you can be shy and be an introvert but not all of them…

She did not want to get to the end of her life not loving what she was meant to love.  She is still in there. The girl you used to be. And she belonged to you and only you. She was happy once being herself and she can be happy again. Search for her underneath the dust of everyday life, inside the drudgery of routine, because she is in there hiding. You can wake up one day and you don’t even recognize yourself. You look in the mirror and a stranger is looking back at you. She looks sort of…

Life is funny sometimes especially when you think about what we as humans talk about in conversation and how we cover almost every topic under the sun except for the topics that can mean the most to us. We talk about the weather, sports, food, health, entertainment and make small talk about so many inconsequential things with such ease. I must admit right here, I am not a fan of small talk. I will not engage in it and I don’t see the point in it other than it’s a big waste of my time. However, the one topic we…

Why is unrequited love so hard to get over? We ask ourselves this very question many times because it is baffling how stuck we can become in our own lives. Love is a very complicated thing and you love who you love. It is that simple and that complicated. How many times have you tried to forget someone or walk away from a relationship? The answer is probably too many times to count. Getting over someone you once loved and still probably love is the hardest thing any of us will try and do. Unfortunately, when I say hardest, it…
