Do what you love!


   There are times I randomly scroll through my Instagram feed and see all these videos and posts of people singing, drawing or making all sorts of beautiful art making me realize how talented people can be and how sometimes they aren't appreciated enough.

  I've known so many people with an artistic or creative side but never feeling proud of it because it's not considered "applaudable".

  I recently figured out that I have this growing passion for the art field, to be more specific, the interior designing field. When I decided that I want to pursue it as a career, I received a lot of uplifting feedback. People telling me to go for it and to do what makes me happy. On the other hand, there were some people that weren't too thrilled about it and made me think otherwise.

  As I tried to ignore the negativity of people I couldn't help but feel disappointed, mainly because these are the type of people that don't let other's show their inner talent because apparently, it's not a field that "pays well" or a field that makes you "successful". But there isn't much we can do to change their thinking. What we can do, however, is do what makes us happy and feel proud of it.

  I mean at the end of the day, it's you who's gonna put in the effort and feel content with what you've chosen to do. I know there are a lot of what if's that lead to overthinking. But if something's not meant for you, you'll automatically drift away from it and find something better. All we can do is hope for the best and see where it goes.

 With the New year coming up, I wish more people realize how talented they are and put that talent to good use because who knows, you can be someone's inspiration to become something they've always wanted to be but are too scared because they don't have enough people supporting them.

Find something that makes you happy and stick to it, no matter how many people try to bring you down, because the right people will always be by your side, supporting you and pushing you to do the best you can.

Life as we know it.

 The term YOLO sounds so simple yet so particularly deep. Sure, we live only once but we also experience each day once which sounds bizarre considering we live every day in the same pattern.  Every day that we live, every minute that passes by never comes back almost like we’ll never relive today again even if tomorrow feels the same!   This makes me wonder how a small improvement to a 24 hour day can change the way we live it. I sometimes find myself pondering life. How it’s the perfect balance of consistency and inconsistency, how one decision made today can completely alter the route of your life the next day. It’s the perception of realizing that there are so many people in this world who we’ll never know, who will never have any impact on us or whose life we’ll never be a part of.   It’s the notion that no matter how slow or fast time flies, it’s always somehow moving forward and never stationary. It’s the awareness that happiness can be attained if we’r...

Stop trying to reach other people’s expectations.

  I consider myself to be an observant person and quite recently I started noticing how some people put in so much effort trying to please others that they often forget who they are in the process.   I’ve had a few friendships in the past where I used to do everything to keep that person in my life, to the point where I’d stop caring about my own feelings and some people took that as an opportunity to mold me into the person they wanted me to be. Granted, I was a kid back then...still am but I never thought it would actually have an effect on me until now.   It’s necessary to put in your effort to make friendships work but honestly, if you don’t see those efforts being reciprocated and appreciated, then it’s not long before everything falls apart.   I have a friend who recently had a fall out with someone she considered her best friend. And initially, everything felt okay but as the years passed she began to realize how it was always her constant efforts that ...

Getting to know me!✨

  Hey, this is my very first blog post and the last time I felt this much pressure was probably during my Alevel board exams!   So to begin with I would love to introduce myself, I'm a regular 17year old who wants to stay anonymous for the time being. I'm in my last year of Alevels so that means alot of big changes are coming my way! The thought of graduating actually feels unreal. I still remember the time I used to look at all the seniors graduating and think to myself "it's probably gonna take ages to get there and it looks like so much work" but now here I am graduating in just a few months! Time flies when you're busy worrying about why time isn't flying fast enough haha!  I also love being sorrounded by nature! I can't begin to tell you how many times I've stopped the most important work I'm doing just to stare at fluffy clouds and pretty sunsets!  I feel nature really connects humans to the beautiful big world we live in and sets ...
