Count Your Blessings

By -
We as individuals always talk about experiences that haunt us for a lifetime, things that scar us,people that leave us and how life is a curse…ever wondered how blessed life is? Ever counted on the number of blessings you have? Ever realized the real meaning of a blessing?

A blessing is when you see forever in someone's eyes. A blessing is when you know that the people you are with are going to stay. It is when you look at people and they understand what you need. It is a person or set of people who accept you the way you are and don’t wish for you to change. It is a relationship which requires nothing but unspoken care, love and affection. A blessing is when you actually feel happy and secure. A blessing is having a sister who loves you more than she loves herself…

Happiness is being with people who make you feel home. It is loving yourself and letting go of everything you have held on for so long. It is making people happy. It is keeping yourself happy. Happiness is taking care of yourself like no one else can and still be not lonely. Happiness is being the source of happiness for someone. It is knowing that you mean something to someone. It is finding happiness in small little things. It is when you don't wish to leave people. It is knowing that they don't want you to leave too. It is having no fear of being taken for granted. Happiness is having no fear of drifting apart from physical distances. It is about realising that you are amazing just the way you are. It is about keeping yourself happy, no matter what. It is listening to your favourite song. It is about not caring enough. It is spending some quality time with yourself. It is not giving up on your ethics. It is not feeling there’s a void when you are alone. Happiness is originality. It is not trying to be superficially cool in order to get adjusted in a new group of friends. It is not asking people to stay in your life because you can feel that they shall stay. It is about those eyes that twinkle when they talk, hear or see someone. It is about that truth that you can see in someone’s eyes. It is in having a family that always is with you. It is about having this one friend who you share your life with. Happiness is writing. It is about trying to let go of your past. Happiness is moving on from past experiences.

Moving on is not about hating the people who once held the most important place in your life, moving on is accepting their absence in your life. Moving on is meeting them without any grudges. Moving on is making new friends without bitching about the old ones. It is about not caring enough about how they think about you. It is about loving people more than you loved the previous ones. It is about learning from your past. It is about making rational decisions and not trying to link everything from your past. It is about living in present and not be a prisoner of your past. It is about not trying to make anyone understand your righteousness anymore. It is about still caring but not showing. It is about still loving them, and still having that hope…
It is about being a stronger, a better and a more powerful version of yourself…

Life is tough but we make it more complex. Rather than counting the reasons behind your misery, count your blessings. Remember to take that leap of faith even though you fell in the past. Remember to count your blessings and name them one by one…

Smoking.

So, this is my message to all the chain smokers out there. Please do share this post, not for me, but for all those Anokhi's out there. This is not a personal story, just a way of representing my thoughts. Anokhi's point of view Dear Father, I know you love me and our family and I am the centre of your world. I know you can do anything for me, but, what I fail to understand is why you can't leave this habit of yours? I fail to understand that if I am so important to you, why are you risking my and our family's future? Why for you, that role of toxic is more important than us? Why do you always lie to us that you shall leave it? Why did you swear on me, the other day? Why do you choose it over us? Why don't you think about us, the effect it has on us? Why don't you understand that it is not you who smokes, it is us, our family that becomes a passive smoker? Why do you fail to understand that it is not you that is killing yourself day by day, it is us, wh...

We people are so stupid. We love, we understand, we forgive and we be with people who really give a damn for us. We make a person important, we prioritize them in a way we shouldn't. We make them the centre of our lives. Their happiness, their well being, their wants, their needs, their wishes, their fantasies, their life, their moods, their words, their actions, their emotions, them..we totally make them a part of us, an indispensable part of us. We tend to forget our individuality, our opinions, our outlooks. We get judged on the basis of how they perceive us. They forget you but you being you, you can never leave them. You just always want to stick to them, like a bee is stuck to honey, always.. it doesn't care if the honey is bitter or not suitable for them. Their life becomes theirs. We as individuals forget individuality. It might be possible that have issues too, but they choose to stay mum. At this stage, silence plays the villian. We tend to speak in a manner that do...

A Lovestory?

"So, what if you fall in love with her". His friend asked. " Umm, I might fall for her, but I shall never tell her that. I don't think I will, but someday if I do, I shall never force her to love me." Saksham said. "But, what's wrong?  Why do you always have to have to think about the future?  You love her, date her for as long as possible and let her go when she wants to. Simple, isn't it?" Adi said. " If at all I love her, I shall love her with all my heart, my soul and my for my life. She isn't an alternative for me, she is my best friend, my source of happiness and my sunshine. My day starts with her 'Good morning stupid'and ends with 'Sleep, idiot.' For me to say that I love her, it shall mean that I love her forever. I don't plan to leave her, not today, not tomorrow, not forever. If I will love her, she will be my forever. I don't wish to sound cheesy, I am being very real. I am ready to stay with her...
