GET THROUGH THE DAY HAPPY

Drew Barrymore once said “Happiness is the best makeup”. I would love to acknowledge that we all define happiness differently, hence, what you are reading here is how I go about being .

Happiness is an emotion we experience which comes and goes. “Happiness is not something readymade. It comes from your own actions”, Dalai Lama.

Here is how I keep my head above the water and stay humbly happy.
1. Upon waking up I remember to be thankful. Thankful for being alive and for my loved ones.
2. Plan my day ahead and make sure to put in work in achieving my goals.
3. Avoid reacting to situations that do not aid my growth. (Turning a blind eye)
4. Being positive.

I am the happiest when I focus my energy into myself and who I want to be in the short run or long run. Because time stops for no man, if you are not happy focusing and pushing yourself who will?

How do you stay happy?

INCITEMENT

I have rewritten this three times and I could not think of better people to write about other than my family members. Their goals and attributes have added to my upbringing one way or another. And I chose these specifically because I love them unconditionally. Mr dad : if he could still tuck up into bed and tell us bed time stories he would. He is full of stories and is ever making people laugh. He makes everyone comfortable from the word go. He literally never sees any bad in any person. A good listener too. Mrs Mum : has always taught us that we are good enough and should go after whatever we believe in. Her childhood stories never end. Always cooking. And always optimistic. Boo : was once my best friend but decided to get married, breaking my heart in two. Knows how to have fun without a worry. Someone you can tell your problems to. Sister sister : my duplicate. ready to exchange birth certificates because I really do believe I was suppose to be the last born. The only hu...

SOLO DATES: NURTURING MY SOUL AND EMBRACING LIFE

Life has a way of throwing us into a whirlwind of responsibilities, stress and never ending to do lists. It is easy to feel overwhelmed and lost in the chaos. But guess what? I have discovered a secret escape, a little slice of heaven that i gift myself- my solo dates. Imagine this: a world buzzing with hurried footsteps, blaring horns and in the midst of it all, theres me, seeking solace in the simple joy of a solo date. It has become my go-to remedy when life's pressures start weighing me down. And let me tell you, it works like magic. So, what exactly do I do on these solo dates? I have no specific restaurant to retreat to, but I am more drawn to cafés, the cozy types to be specific. It is the way the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wraps around me like a warm hug on a chilly day. My order is always the same, a hot/ice vanilla latte. Yes, I don't compromise on the food, ever. Anything with jalapeños and spice. Armed with a novel that's been calling my name, I find my co...

Finding happiness, Progress and Weight gain journey.

Thinking back to 2014, memories of living free and being completely happy come back to mind. It was a year of many open doors and opportunities. Four years later I could barely enjoy doing anything as school had managed to take the life out of me. Nevertheless, being home has allowed me time to reflect and honestly find happiness within. Part of this journey meant that I had to start putting effort and more time into the things I loved. I.e writing. Many a times we forget how blessed we are. If you and I have a talent why not use it for the greater good and share it with others? It could have a positive impact on them. I found the will to motivate myself to start writing again. Writing because I enjoy it and I thought my thoughts were worthy to be read by another. So week after week, I put in progress. Not only in writing but also coming up with new ideas of how I can reach a bigger audience. And hoping that my will to write never dies. Progress may be slow but good t...
