Learn to be happy when alone

There are times when you want to talk to someone yet you find everyone busy. There are times you have the urge to visit that new restaurant which opened right opposite your home but you have no one to accompany you. There are times when you know you are in need of your best friend, but even though you call them innumerable times, they don't pick up your call.

Yes, It's true. Right now you feel like an unwanted, lonely person. You have no one to turn to, no one with whom you can share your secrets because they are far away living their own life while you are fretting, ranting, raving and may be crying horribly on your bed or behind the closed door of your bedroom. I can see your pain, I can feel it. I have been there. But I am going to tell you what to do when no one's by your side.

First and foremost, learn to be happy when you are alone. I know it may seem weird. You would think, 'How can I be happy when I'm alone?' Of course, you can. 

Nobody teaches us to make friends, it just happens. So why can't you try to be happy when you are alone? You can. Do something that you love to do when no one's around. Remember, when you were kid you would feel shy when someone asked you to sing but behind your closed room, you wouldn't hesitate to sing louder even if your voice got cracked? Do it, right away.

Do you love playing music instrument? Go on! Play it! You can spend hours practicing the instrument and not even realize or feel the isolation of staying alone.  

Are you missing your mom? Do you feel it's been years that you haven't talked even if you just talked two days ago? Rush to your phone, dial the number and call.

If you want to try out that new restaurant, go eat. Yes! I'm not saying for the sake of it. You must try! There's no harm eating alone. Don't feel ashamed or embarrassed if people look at you and pity you. You never know if they must be feeling envy of you because they don't have the courage to eat alone.  

Being alone doesn't mean being lonely. It's up to you how you positively engage yourself. If you will fret over what if's, then you would enter under the category of lonely but if you focus on what you love or your hobby or may be your carrier itself, you may open doors for yourself, you may have never thought.

Unfailing Outlook

While you have dreams in your vision to fulfill them,you also see on the other hand how people are living their life. The kind of life you too are dreaming at the moment. Someone's a doctor, musician, singer, astronaut, engineer, architect etc.Perhaps every individual lives up to their dreams as without dreams reality hits us hard.   To live your dream you need to have an ambition,an aim,strength to resist trials and tribulations,undivided focus and hard work.  And all this comes with a cost - Time! Time which keeps ticking at every mini second Time that doesn't stop Time which is the present Time that guides you to make or break your life. Like the wrist watch on your hand completes your style,the same way the time is a constant reminder to you to walk on the pedestal or you'll get hit by a car. But at times,we fail,we feel let down due to circumstances and sometimes hard luck. Whatever the issue of concern may be but it's really important to ha...

I looked at him in a childish way.  He said,"This is why I fell in love with you"  I gently laughed as he spoke. Again, he flattered me, saying,"What? I am serious Naina!"  "Ok, fine! When did I say you were fooling around" I chuckled The innocent look on his face made me laugh harder.I couldn't resist that moment and pulled his cheeks.He was taken aback by my sudden response. "What are you doing? It hurts!" He said " Is it so ? Then forget it, from now on wards I 'll never pull your cheeks" I mocked "Hey!

I knew he was about to speak something urgent. "Jokes apart" "Naina,their is something I want you to know" he prompt...

The Idyllic Love

Everyone in today's world is searching for their partner who is supposedly meant to be there in their lives forever. Well, don't you think it is? Somewhere, Sometimes we all are inclined to think that yes, maybe our soulmate is out there somewhere waiting for us. And why shouldn't we think as it pleases our mind? This "Idyllic love" or the ideal love we are in the hunt for makes us crazy to an extent that either we go to depression or question the thought itself.  Questions which we introspect on, "Does true love really exist ?" "Do fairy tale love exist?" "Will I ever find my soulmate?" "What if I never find one?" "What if I remain single?" "what if I never get married?" "Am I living in an illusion?" "look at that couple how madly in love they are and still going strong and look at me I couldn't find one for myself!" Dude, Relax! You'll find one! Soon...
