WHEN YOU HIT YOUR LOWEST POINT

We all hit rock bottom differently but how we face it, is what matters the most.

Some years back I abruptly decided to stop dating and take some time off. I felt like there was more to life other than just dating and I was craving something more mentally and emotionally. It wasn’t exactly a dark time in my life but a time for self realization.

Till this day, I preach it was the best decision I ever made. I made that decision precisely when I was in a good place. I did not want to be just in a “good” place, I wanted to be in a better place. During my time off, I fully focused on me and what made me happy. I dedicated my time to reading, watching movies (this is also the period I fell in love with watching series), school, and going out to have fun (peacefully have fun). Oh and I ate a lot of take away. I became my own person and in the process I found a limitless abundance of happiness within. I gained the “happy weight” people gain when they are in happy relationships. ðŸ¤£.

When we think about hitting our lowest point we more than often relate it to something negative. It is actually not the worst thing that could happen to you and I. Choosing to be alone when something doesn’t serve you any more doesn’t equate to being lonely. Rather it is a time for self realization, growth and change. Never be afraid for the changes that may come.

Many times we meet wolves dressed in sheepskin ready to throw us off our game. Take good care of yourself, independence is not a bad thing, ignorance is not bliss. Wake up everyday and realize that you’re a strong, confident and self-reliable person.

Detach yourself from anything and anyone and move on. You deserve better.

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...
