Human beings and validation

"Every word has consequences.
Every silence, too."

The more you do for someone, the more they’ll expect the next time. Don’t keep being the giver. Make a conscious effort to strike a balance. It sucks but it’s the truth. The ones you confide in with matters of the heart, will be the ones taking you for granted. And as a bonus, if you can provide financial support and have the heart to keep giving… you’ll realise much later where you should’ve stopped yourself.

A mother’s tears speak volumes

Don’t explain yourself too much always. Your words will be mistaken for trying to justify a point you never began to explain with that intention. You were only explaining because you purely felt like you were sharing your thoughts, out of habit.

"There’s a message in the way a person treats you,
just listen…"

Anyone who is close to you in your life must be accepting of your flaws and nature.
Because if that person isn’t, it’s going to be a problem, as somewhere that hope of you changing bit by bit will never go away. Regardless of whether this person accepts that he/she would want you to change your basic nature, make sure that you have sensed the underlying meaning in the words spoken by your loved one, as a pattern.

It’s so amazing to see a difference of opinion from an individual when it comes to you, and when the same thing is applicable to another close person in their lives, it’ll vary to a great degree.

Marriage, it’s not for everybody. Tons of patience, expectations, tolerance. It’s an endless coping process.

You have to be able to reassure the right people in your life
and by right, I mean, the ones you take for granted!
The power of reassuring and apologising is truly underestimated.

There is no point in you displaying affection when there is no reciprocation from the other end due to prior experiences
Don’t let yourself suffer because of a river of emotions
Most people don’t think as much as you think they do!

What has gotten into the millennial generation that they’ve completely forgotten how to speak to their parents?

Not many people will understand the intensity of your emotions. They don’t feel every tiny little thing as deeply as you do. So always aim to not let their words have power over you. It’s amazing how you’ll be judged. Again and again. They judge you by your silence and by your expressiveness.
You are your only truest friend in life and the sooner you accept that with a smile on your face, the happier you’ll be :)

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them."

There is no fairytale
There is never going to be one
It’s far from rosy, and it’ll always be
Life is nothing but a ride
Just depends on your state of mind, when you realise you’re on it 

Enjoying solitude will help you heal those parts of you, you thought were healed but actually aren’t.

Money is certainly not everything, but it does solve a lot of problems. #Kalyug

People won’t get you the way you expect them to.
That’s because and will always be because they’re thinking from their level of perception always.

There is no relationship that’s full of roses without thorns
The thorns might be too many and piercing in some
But that’s how it is
What will you do about it?
You are always being compared even when you’re told otherwise

Everyone’s brain works a certain way
As an individual who’s a parent, one must remember that you’re forming a child’s questions and answers
You are contributing in every way to a child’s thoughts who you’re raising up or even interacting with

This!

I don’t get why women are always looking for validation from a guy
No, you don’t need it
I rarely see a man who isn’t confident about himself and seeking the same from the opposite gender

“Find the sort of person who doesn’t judge you during your worst moments and celebrates your best ones to the fullest.”
– Ankita Mahabir
(a senior from school, in one of her articles)

The world is disturbed
Syria attacks and people dying, so many innocent children suffering due to no fault of theirs
The media is always focusing on coming up with sensationalised headlines, and depressing news, instead of maybe reflecting on positivity or philanthropy at some level

Sons are sons
Daughters are liabilities
No matter what you say, hear or believe
That is the harsh truth

This is an old one;

"Sometimes the nicest people you meet are covered in tattoos and the most judgmental people you meet go to Church on Sundays."

So if you’re an empath, a words person, and reading this
Here’s something you must remember ~
Don’t let anyone tell you that you should change yourself for being the sensitive one :)

The power of storytelling, self-awareness

The sad part about being an empath is that you will always be taken for granted. You’re a good judge of people because you can sense who they are for real behind the masks they wear, and not how they are on the basis of their appearance or how they portray themselves in front of the world.
You can see through people, but not everyone can, especially the naive ones out there. And because you’re always looking to receive genuine vibes, you’re unusually alert when you don’t receive even a little bit of those. But when you warn another person about the same, you’ll definitely be blamed for having a negative outlook, and preconceived notions.
The worst part about being on, is to feel everything.
Such is life. Such are human beings.

It’s amazing the kind of questions people ask sometimes
I mean, honestly, it isn’t even about whether you have any common sense at all whatsoever
Because that again is quite subjective and depends on your exposure in life anyway
But really, it’s about whether or not you applied your brain to its maximum capacity and tried to figure out an answer or look up google, in the first place!
But no, why would one do that when it’s easier to not think at all and ask questions amongst a group of people.. I’m not even considering our parents generation here, they’re exceptions and a different breed of homo sapiens
Such amazingness is only reflected by the awesome millennials!

"You cannot force someone to comprehend a message that they are not yet ready to receive, but never underestimate the power of planting a seed."

People running after fame, money or success often forget their families in the rat race.
They lose themselves in the process and the worst part is that they don’t realise or admit it..

When you notice a pattern
in a person’s behaviour
in life,
connect the dots…
it’s all connected!

"Never confuse education with intelligence."

These board results coming out, and the 99% average (meaning 100 in more than one subject), just reminds me of how much people have forgotten to differentiate between knowledge and education, as always, in our country! The system can never be truly impactful, unless it recognises the difference between a person’s marks and the capabilities of an individual.

"Magic happens when you don’t give up, even though you want to.
The universe always falls in love with a stubborn heart."
