How many times you catch yourself in situations, you wish you never found yourself in. How often had it happened over the course of your life, where you are stuck at a cross road. And you see both paths clearly. You know what you have to do, but almost paralyzed and having difficulty to do it. You know you have to take action before it gets out of hand. Continue reading

Listen To Your Intuition
Many times we question ourselves in how we are processing our thoughts about our partners, their past, and who they have shown themselves to be. We convince ourselves we don’t need to know the past because now is all that matters. We are told not to judge someone based on their history because the situation is not the same. While this logic is true, there is more to it than meets the eye. Listen to that inner voice that tells you something is not right. Trust your intuition. Continue reading
Endless Goodbyes
Inspired by personal losses and heartbreaking stories, I got to thinking one day, how our goodbyes don’t seem to end. As a matter of fact, they start in our early years as we just begin our lives. And we experience goodbyes constantly. It’s just that we only recognize Continue reading
To Forgive or Not To Forgive
I struggle with this thought even though I have been down this road before. I even wrote my thoughts about ‘forgiveness‘ earlier this year. I want to start the New Year with no baggage. I want to be free from anything that might hold back my growth as an individual. Still I find myself asking: “Should I? Can I? Do I want to?” Continue reading
HAPPINESS – Quote
“Happiness is not your friend, it never stays with you. Pain is your friend, it never leaves you. So accept the pain with the happiness, and be prepared when pain hits you more than when happiness does.” ~ J. M.
Conversation with My Heart
How many times will I keep going through this? How much more can my heart take? Why do I always end up in the same spot every time? Do I continuously make wrong choices and am I that bad in my judgements? It’s at times like these when I think I know nothing. I think I do, but obviously I don’t. Continue reading
The “FORGIVENESS” Lesson
“Don’t forgive because it’s the right thing to do, forgive because it’s what you want to do”. Aly Johnson
“I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note – torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.” Henry ward Beecher
“He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself; for every man has need to be forgiven.” Thomas fuller
“Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespassed against us”. The Lord’s Prayer
How often do we repeat quotes like these in our daily lives and actually understand the depth of forgiveness? Do we really know how to forgive? And why is it that we do not practice this act more often? Continue reading
Heartache
One of those feelings that if you haven’t experienced it, you do not know how it really feels like. Continue reading
Trust
What a very serious topic!! One that we all have talked about at some point in our lives. One that we experience from birth till the day we die. Trust is part of our daily lives. It can make us or it can break us. Trust at the end of the day is a choice. As much as it is a feeling, it is also a thought. Whether we trust or do not trust – it is up to us how we want to live our lives.
Here is a question for you: What is trust?? Continue reading
Fear
One of the most destructive emotions in our lives is the feeling of Fear. It is the most common one next to Love. Both of those emotions even go hand in hand.
What is fear exactly? Why do we fear? Who experiences fear the most? What do we do to overcome the feeling of fear in our lives???
The feeling of fear itself is very versatile. Every person feels fear differently and the reason or cause of fear varies as well. Generally speaking though, fear is an emotion that paralyzes our ability to think positively and find peace in our lives. When you fear something, you are unsure Continue reading
Risk
What is a risk? Why do we risk? And what kind of impact does risk have on our lives? Is there a safe way to take risks?
On a day-to-day basis, I say we each take some sort of risk in everything we do. A risk is an unknown outcome to an event. We take risks when we say or do something. We even take risks when we don’t say or do something. Continue reading
