Difficult times are mirrors…

By

At points in life, often we are overpowered with a strong negativity around us. Those are the days, when we feel nothing is happening in our favor. We just feel we have nothing to achieve, and we are forever meant to struggle and be defeated at the end. Every single thing it appears, happens just to make us realize that you are not on the right path, and you should stop putting efforts to succeed, because you are not destined to…
This happens with all of us, and this happens specifically only for us.
But do these difficult times are any challenge, or meant for something above all this? The difficult times are back breakers for us. Nothing in our favor and everything against, every flavor it seems, is without taste.
Difficult times, like a mirror shows us our own image, but the difference is, difficult times show us our true self, when we are gripped in a cage around us. Like we see mirror, where it appears that our image is confined to the boundaries of mirror, and there is nothing for the image beyond that boundary, difficult times too are like the boundaries, where our personality feels caged. And during such times only, we are able to see our true personality, like we are able to see our own face when we are only in front of a mirror.
The problem with human mind is obsession. As we see a lot of people around us, who are obsessed with their own beauty, who love their own looks and feel like always seeing themselves in mirror. These people are strongly self obsessed and at every point of time all they have in mind is their own looks and personality. They feel confident if they find themselves to be beautiful
Similarly, the difficult times provides us the opportunity to look at our own real soul. The problem with these times is people are unable to take these times as opportunities. Instead they begin to see this as a threat, which hampers growth. But the truth is, that difficult times are meant to be the mirror through which you can discover your true self and once you see your true self coming out of that mirror of difficult time, you will feel all the very more confident about yourself being able to solve any problem or any difficulty with ease and comfort.

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

By
It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...

On a path to glory

By
I have been lost before. in a pool of confusions, that delve inside my head. I have been lost before, in a tide of self-doubt, that crept inside my heart.. I have been lost before, in the guilt of underperforming I have been lost before, at nights with unstoppable mourning Through the years I learned, it does not matter If I am lost, I will surely be found And if no one finds me, I myself will one day walk past this maze To do something worthwhile and to amaze All those who laughed at the time when I was lost All those who created a sense of self-doubt, who made me face this ghost I have learned that the fears are just inside All we have is a beautiful world with opportunities, that is real and is outside So, I rise again from this pool of confusion, Yes I rise again from this guilt and emotion, I know am hard at heart when it comes to the topic of self-achievement But what is an achievement, without a little attitude All I want you is to kno...

Yuun to mein - Hindi Poem

By
After days of being in solitude and calm, my mind took inspiration from these famous lines and my pen started working to complete a piece in the form of a poem.  ' Yuun to mein tanhaa hi tha safar mein Log judte gye karwaan banta gya….' Kuch mili apni si shaksiyatein Aur unke hi sahare me aage bdhta gaya… Sikha mene bahut iss safar mein… Naa jaane kyu fir bhi me pichadta gya… Jo sath nibhate chale sang mere… Unse hi me zindagi jeena sikhta gya… Ek aasra mil sa gya tha uss karvaan ki chaav mein Aisa laga jaise hu mein samundar ko cheerti naav mein Jaana tha naa mene tab Ki ye karvaan bhi chhalava sa hai Is kaarvaan ka sahara sabko hai Par apna yha koi na hai Khud par shaq to kabhi na tha Kabiliyat par ek anjana sa yakin sat ha Koshish ko apni kamm na karunga Apni manzil ko rahunga me dhundhta Kal ko ye kaarvaan rahe na rahe sang mere Manzil ko apni mein paake rahunga Koi ho ya na ho sang sath dene ko Sukoon ki chaav me ek...
