let your own light shine!

   “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?'

Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us.

 And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech.

4 things!

the beauty of time is that it goes on and it stops for none.
the beauty of life is that it sneaks up on u n startles u when u least expect it,
the beauty of love is that its sometimes over rated and sometimes underrated,
the beauty of true friendship is that it is timeless...

Time.the moment when ur heart skips a beat, the moment when u r literally ecstatic, the moment when time stops, and the moments when nothing else matters, that is the moment..... when u realize that this moment will never come back...
and u just want to savour it and not let it go, as much as u want to hold on to it, and save it and enjoy it...u r gripped with the fear that "i dont want to let go it"...but u do. like evrything in life....that moment goes away too.

life. startles u and shakes u up and makes u want to die at tyms. but at the same time makes u want to live forever.

love. u either grow out of it, or get used to it, or simply fall deeper in it. u love things, and u love people, and u love urself....love and love, is it really love? or u r too used to something...or sum1? mayb u r OCDish lol...no seriusly what is love?

friendship. sometimes easy to let go. sometimes too hard to let go. ur support system. ur way out...an escape for u.

drowning in the numbness of nothingness!

Just when u think life is beautiful n everythn is workin out just the way u want it to n it culdnt have been better,

life comes n says "bhooo gottcha!" and u find urself standing amidst a hurricane of things, tht r happenin so fast u cnt even imagine to catch up.

i really want to know wht makes it happen? and i really want to know does life ever remain monotonous? i ws under the impression some ppl jus live ordinary lives with no happnings n simple things... i guess with time im realizing thts not the case.

with age, v do becum mature, but v also become more sensitive. v grow stronger only for the world to c, but deep inside we r vulnerable kids.

sitting in ths dark corner wth my jasmine tea, i recollect life and i find it to b nothing less thn a million little pieces of a mirror, and i realize im not me anymore, i dnt recognize the person that i was.

and yet again i find myself falling into the numbness of nothingness. is it the fear of losing everything? or the hurt of betrayal? or sheer exhaustion? .........life as i know it ...is a bitch!
