Let your passions run wild!

Do you know how there are some moments when everything just ticks you off in the worst way possible? But then there are days when even the smallest things crack you up making the whole ambiance joyful?

I’m sure we’ve all had plenty of those days but recently, I realized how sometimes we take those short joyful moments for granted, thinking they aren't worth much. But we choose to let even the slightest bit of worry take up most of our time. It’s weird how we do this without even realizing it...don’t you think?

About a month ago, my friend and I were talking about our passions and how not many people are going to support us all the way, how we’re definitely going to be criticized and it could be literally anyone we know...or don’t know! And it got me thinking, why is it that when someone motivates us, we feel good for about 10 minutes then forget about it, but if someone criticizes us we hold on to it for a longer time?

It’s not like their opinions are going to affect how we feel right? It’s really our choice whether we choose to let their negativity bring us down because let’s be real, not everyone is going to be happy for our happiness. And that’s totally okay because at the end of the day it’s our specialty. We’re the ones who will make a future out of it, so might as well feel confident and do it the right way! As long as you’re appeased with it, no one can come along and change that!

I don’t really know what inspired me to write this but I feel it’s something that needs to be said. Maybe it makes a difference in someone's life. Do what makes you ecstatic, you’ll go a long way! And you’ll most probably be content with how everything turns out!

Btw this is a picture of the library ceiling that I thought was beautiful...ofcourse I took a picture of it!

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 ...
