The Long Pause

All of us have the pleasure of understanding how things take a turn in our lives, most of the time unexpected and uncertain. Certainly, very few of us get to see life in a way we expect it to be. Does it matter? because most of the time the most beautiful destinations are unforeseen.

The reality is in different frequencies all of our lives take a pause, a sweet time for itself to revive. That's when most of us give up. This period is when you meet the wrong people, you do bizarre deeds, you fall in mess and fall apart. But the understanding that it's all going to be fine is tough to digest until the hormones settle, after all that we feel is merely a play of a few hormones and chemicals within. 

It took me time to understand we need not give the power to these hormones to decide on how miserable we should feel. It should be as easy as to realize this fact and then go do the next awful deed. Unless it's not hurting anyone else you can definitely use the badass attitude to explore to how much ever extent you want to. Life as understood is pretty cool a journey if we can tame ourselves to be there and take things that way, all you got to do is to understand your limits, values, wants, and needs and serve accordingly. It was my 26th birthday 3 days before and I have always anticipated my birthdays to be a bad event until this year and definitely, something or the other came up bad, unsatisfied or hurtful but for a change this year I manifested goodness, happiness, simplicity, and love, touchwood I feel light-hearted, peaceful and blessed for all that has happened and in-store.




The times when life takes a pause, you got to shine a little extra with all the energy because nobody stays, nobody can make a change in your life, it's just you for you. In every moment of your day and life, there is positivity.  There is always a silver lining to every situation and moment.  You just need to look for them.

It may seem impossible when things are going bad.  Whether you are battling cancer, going through a divorce, losing your job, etc there is STILL always a silver lining.  You need to look for it in little things.  If you are having a hard time seeing the positive from your negative then start small.  It may be the sound of a bird chirping, the feeling of your sheets when you slip into bed after a long day, a bite of your favorite food, a day without any bills in the mail.  You need to find things that bring joy, even if little things, to you.

By starting to look for and notice the little things in life, not only will you begin to appreciate life more, you will also start to see larger things and how they connect.  You will start to slow down and notice life around you.  It is a big key to life.  You will open up your heart and mind by simply stopping to notice all the good around you.  And by thinking about and focusing on the positive you will notice that you start to feel better.  What you focus on and think about is what you bring about.  So focus and think about the good in life and you will bring good to your life.

Because every pause resumes, and you got to hold on until your time comes. Because when it comes you are the one to decide whether to burn or shine!
