Anecdote #7

These days as my holidays are on I truthfully do just about nothing. I watched the World T20 match last night but went  to bed when I knew we were going to lose. What do people do when they have a lot of time on their hands, you might say they get busy and start doing some kind of work but those who are like me value and practice the art of doing nothing. I sit and think. I look out of the window and cannot help but feel pensive. I can almost feel myself drift into another space.
These thoughts are valuable to me, it is in these moments that I find solutions. It is hard to always wear a smile,even if you do it seems pretentious. You cannot help but feel unhappy sometimes. You are drowned in your sorrow, engulfing you into a pit filled with darkness. Stop going through your mistakes because there is  no hiding from the fact that you will be making more. The emotions you have caged for so long need to exit your being. 
We don't run this world, we are a part of it. Learn to live in it gracefully. Forgive yourself, be supportive of another, express your concerns but don't be discouraging.Pray for those in pain and for those who lost happiness. Respect the people who found happiness in the darkest of times. Be grateful for all the love and light and most of all learn to let go. Let go of those memories which haunt you, the love that you lost and know that whatever happened was to mould you into a better person. People like different things and you are not here to please anyone. All of us play by our own rules and I do believe that somewhere inside of us we know what we must and need to do.It is not that we don't know we are taking the wrong step, our conscience pricks at us the each time we dwindle. Be true to your self, that's the best gift you will ever give to yourself. Your soul is the most precious thing you have. Let it heal and learn to care for it.
