Half Introvert!

Hey there,😊

What is your definition of having a good time?? Is it a quiet afternoon to yourself to enjoy your hobbies and interests?? your answer may be a YES or may be a NO. Mine is Yes!

You must have come across the word introvert or may be you consider yourself one. Either case, lets read what it feels like to be one? 😉.

Life of an introvert has always been amazing (strangely), if you look at it from their point of view. May be it feels stale to the outer world but believe me it is not so. I am not saying that i belong to that turf but i cannot label myself as an extrovert. The best quality of an introvert is being a self-observer, self-centered and a curious soul. The talent of appreciating little details about people and nature everywhere is not something everyone possess. The way they embrace the beauty of life is fascinating. Little happenings bliss their mind. They are not fenced by any cuffs or get bothered by the chaos of the crowd. They are like a bird wandering free in the sky and who holds an urge to discover own-self. They just smile to the world peeking from a corner and get lost in their own imaginations. Trust me, it is not weird. These people come up with most great ideas that no one can usually think of! They also spend a great deal of time examining their own internal experiences!!

Wait, they are not secretive or quiet, they just wait for the person whom they can trust blindly and can open their life's book fearlessly. People sometimes make the mistake of thinking that just because a person is quiet, it also means the person is shy. It is important to realize that there is a big difference between introversion, shyness and social anxiety. They act as the best and very true companion. Never judge their friendship and their honesty. Believe me! Being an introvert is not a curse but a god's grace. Not everyone falls in love with own soul easily and discovering own flaws and perfections is far better than pointing people out there.

Love and respect those people. They don't say a lot but they are gem! 

By the way,
Have you ever tried of sitting in your balcony all alone with a hot cup of coffee and a soft music from your playlist???.. No? You've been missing one of the best peace giving therapy of life!

With Love,💓

A letter to Myself :)

Hey Girl,

Yes you! shy little girl sitting besides her mom holding the edge of her saree in her hand and peeking through sides what is happening around. Yes this little girl is too shy to leave her mother and go outside by herself and see the world. She even hesitates going to a nearby shop alone. She feels scared. She feels she would lost her way back home. She even doesn't go to another room without someone accompanying her. Why she is behaving like this? Nothing tragic happened to her. She gets all the love from her parents and brother. May be, she is a small little girl who happen to see lot of new people, new things, neighborhood and wonders what is all these? May be she is taking a little more time than usual to understand that this is the real world. She will grew up one day and start understanding all these.

She is a big girl now who goes to school, who has friends, who talks to people a bit more than earlier. Told you, she will be comfortable in no time. See, she is too happy getting her own books, talking to her friend over the landline. Oh, she has a video game too that she shares with the brother. Mann, they can spend whole day playing Mario over that TV. And mom, she has to miss her afternoon daily soaps, these kids won't let her watch the TV. She is happy. She laughs, smiles, goes out and play with neighborhood kids. She is evolving.

Shhh.. Don't disturb her. She is studying. Oh she has exams in few days. she looks tensed. No baby, you don't have to be worry about anything. I know you are more talented than you think you are. No no.. i am not just empathizing you. I have seen you reaching the heights which at this point you have no idea about. You will grow up well and good. You will make your parents proud. Whatever you think you don't have it, you will get it and by your own. For that you will have to work hard and i know you don't mind that. Just want to tell you that you do your thing with all your heart and you will be pretty amazing. Trust me, you are!

Oh See! You did it. You are outperforming yourself at every stage lady. See i told you, you have the potential. Wait wait! Its not the end. You just cracked what you have set your goal initially.  Life starts now. Since you have those papers which say you have done a pretty good job at studies and now it's your turn to earn. Oh, that is the thing we knew from the beginning but wasn't concerned about as this was the second thing for consideration. Getting good grades was the first one.I know you are thinking your life sucks now and I can't agree more.

But life is the best teacher. You have already learnt a lot of lessons till now and going to learn more ahead. Now you are big girl who faces the world like a rock. You will have your own struggles but this time you won't go around your mom and hide yourself. You will face them with a smile on your face. Oh yes by the way, i heard from many people you have a million dollar smile. So put it on always and rock your world. There are many things on your way which are going to surprise you and will make you fall in love with you more and more again. Never get distracted and when you are sad and feel like you’re nothing, think about what you really want. Make it a good thought. It will happen for you. Hang in there, your life will be amazing, you’ll see.

With love,💓
Your upgraded version,
Natasha :)

Exploring the unexplored!

Hi readers,👐

Hope you all are doing great..

One question before we continue our discussion.

Exploring is what according to you?

So lets begin with what is exploring?.. Few years back, being a teenager and living in the era of over-hyped social media, travelling used to fascinates me a lot and #Happyexploring captions of people travelling different parts of the world gave me a feeling of envy and at the same time used to gave me an aspiration of doing the same one day i.e. travelling the whole world and witnessing the glory of this land and nature. I am not saying that wasn't right or that i don't want to explore those things or places right now, but there is a slight change of perception towards the definition of exploring things. 

When you grow up more and take a deep turn from your teenage life to adultery, you start having that weird realization that what important in life is not exploring the outer world but exploring your inner-self. There comes a turning phase where you go from "No one knows better than me" to "I don't know what i want in my life". All things seem to be messed up and you feel like whatever decisions you have taken whether it is regarding choosing stream after 10th standard or after facing first rejection or betrayal by a friend etc was wrong and you are not capable to make your life decisions. That's the point when you lose motivation and self worth.Standing strong and passing that phase is itself the biggest challenge for every newly entered adult or an obsolete teenager.

But things seem to go with your pace once you start having certain calm in your life and certain things start to settle down. Then you get a time for yourself and when you go back in past recalling all those points you have faced and passed, you feel like you have explored a whole new you and that might be without moving out of your city or country. That's when you get the true meaning of exploring. The goal is yet to be achieved but atleast you are now aware of the term.

That's like more of exploring emotionally rather than exploring physically..

Now when I see #happyexploring posts of people, I don't feel envy of them. Travelling is a way for most of us to escape the bitter reality and to search for a temporary peace. The people who travel alone are the people seeking peace. It's more of a natural therapy rather than just a fun element. Exploring outside world is a cherry to the cake of self realization. 

If we go to the essence of what we are trying to discuss here.. Explore yourself! Explore what you are and what you wanna be. Don't just move yourself along the way of what you see about people on different networks. Self worth and self realization is a very important aspect for a stable mind and calm soul. Yes! explore more from within.. read your soul.. understand your thoughts... so that you can calm your wandering mind and can truly focus on wandering your body. ;)

Explore from within.. Conquer your thoughts!!💛

My perspective might be different from what you think. Would love to discuss it further and wanna know different perspectives as well :)😇

Wish you all happy rest of the week ;)

Keep Smiling 😄

With Love 💓
Natasha
