GIVE IN & LET IT GO.
Be strong enough to let go & patient enough to wait for what you deserve.
I must say that I am stuck up in a terrible phase of Procrastination and only God can help me out with this one. Likewise, through this phase - Blogging seems to be one of the most productive things I opt to do over focusing on my Masters Dissertation. (God Save Me)
Stumbling upon an interesting article of what we should let go in Life in order to be Happy - sounded like an interesting title and urged me to read through. It is ironical to understand that Letting go of anything or anyone in order to make you Happy. It has never been an easy task and it takes up a lot of mental strength and a bucket full of emotions to wail through such phases and situations in life. But practically it holds true and is definitely beneficial for us to give in to few things in life while you let go of others - no matter how precious they seem to you.
While we grow up, no one teaches any of us to be selfish or only to be self-obsessed but eventually we all turn out to become such individuals. In the greed of wanting to own everything or have the best in life we all forget and take a slip on understanding or putting others before ourselves. Being selfless is not easy as it includes a lot of compromise, understanding, love and concern - sometimes for a person and sometimes for your own self.
Personally having been through such phases where unfortunately I opted to think solely for myself, by not bothering about how the person with me feels or thinks - I have taken decisions which I am sure must have been difficult for them. We all make mistakes and grow up to learn what is better which applies to me as well. Progressing to become more giving in to situations and letting go of what will not help me grow as an individual is something I have learnt. Shunning off negativity is always a task because it has its way to creep into life. It is important to stay positive while understanding that everything happens for a reason, we may not completely know why - but the Universe knows what its doing !
Humans are not perfect and so obviously our lives will never be perfect like an ending of a romantic movie. Life is all about the journeys we travel, the paths we choose and the decisions we take. Some are good and some are bad, but that is where we all learn from. Trying to do something for someone, being there for someone who needs you, spending money on a needy person rather than shopping, being kind and open-hearted, trying to be a good listener and most importantly putting yourself in someone else's shoes and then looking at the situation are a few things - if adapted by all of us, the world and our life will be a happier place ! :)
