MR: Morning Reads

The truth is, we won't always end up with those we feel something deep and meaningful with. Some chapters of our lives are full and dizzying in the best way — with concrete endings and concrete closure. But some chapters end quickly, sometimes in the middle of the page, sometimes before we are even ready. We cannot control what comes to fruition in our lives. We cannot control how long someone chooses to love us; we cannot control how long someone chooses to stay. At the end of the day, all we can do is learn from the endings, all we can do is embrace the fact that for a moment in time, we felt something beautiful. For a moment in time, we felt something rare

If you don't feel like yourself right now, it's probably because you are not that person anymore. Sometimes you fall apart and when you go to put yourself back together again, you'll find that there are missing pieces. Parts of you have been lost along the way but it's important that you don't go searching for them. You don't need to backtrack in order to feel whole again. This is your opportunity to grow, your chance to bloom into the person you've always wanted to be. You might have lost parts of yourself along the way, but you will never be incomplete. You are enough all on your own. Keep going. Source: https://pin.it/DjoJD8W

Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can. —ARTHUR ASHE Nobody is asking you to be perfect. It's enough to just do the best you can do today with what you have inside you right now. Oftentimes, we put too much pressure on ourselves to please other people. Goal: Whatever you feel when you wake up is good enough; just start with that and make the most of today.

I have failed enough times to know, Setbacks only test your strength. Failures hurt and can break you, Even fate stands smiling at length. Stand again, push yourself I say, Start afresh to rebuild what's broken. Failure is just a passing phase, Courage you have to cross life ocean... - PRIYA SHIVA. Source: https://pin.it/2ZI2cvE

The fear of failure is a hurdle we create for ourselves. It stops us from dreaming and blocks us from achieving it. We lose self direction and then blame it on lack of time. Take that step towards your dream and it's okay to fail. You will still be happy knowing that you tried... - PRIYA SHIVA. Source: https://pin.it/6GBy1KV

I want you to know what it feels like to be in love with the life that you are living. I want you to know what it feels like to wake up in the morning and be grateful for another day, every day. I want you to have all of the energy you need to live the life you want to live. I don't want you to be scared of the unknown-I want you to see the unknown as a beautiful puzzle that you will be able to build on your own. You are capable of building your dream life—one that you look back on in the future and are completely in awe of. I don't want you to look back and regret not making the move you doubted you could do. You can do anything. Start by believing in what you don't believe you are capable of. Start by letting go of the strings attached to your past. Start slowly. It won't happen all at once but it will happen as it needs to. Please, don't doubt yourself and remember you don't need anyone else to believe in you for your dreams to come true. You deserve to believe in yourself and let that energy carry you through. ALL THAT YOU DESERVE

"Please stop overthinking life like you have to have an answer to every feeling or situation. That's not how life works. We figure it all out by just living. By fucking up, by missing an opportunity, by seeking advice and not taking it. We learn what's important and what isn't. Sometimes we have no fucking idea what to do and that's okay. Always trust your gut and know that everything will work out exactly the way it's supposed to. It always does. Relax, we were never in control anyway."

"People think they know you. They think they know how you're handling a situation. But the truth is no one knows. No one knows what happens after you leave them, when you're lying in bed or sitting over your breakfast alone and all you want to do is cry or scream. They don't know what's going on inside your head - the mind numbing cocktail of anger and sadness and guilt. This isn't their fault. They just don't know. And so they pretend and they say you're doing great when you're really not. And this makes everyone feel better. Everybody but you." • William H. Woodwell Jr.

i know it's not fucking easy, i know it hurts. you're sitting there over thinking, a million and one questions running through your head. unable to sleep, creating different scenarios in your mind, while making a mental list of regrets but you can't keep blaming yourself for someone else's inability to provide to type of love you deserve. tonight is just like any other night, difficult as hell but you'll do what you've always done. you'll get over it, you'll get through it. you'll be fine.

Build a life that makes you smile, in the simplest moments, even if that kind of life doesn't look splashy on Instagram. Make choices that make you feel lighter, even if those choices don't reflect what society has told you that you "should" do. Befriend people you respect, who inspire you, even if it means starting over. Interpret your life through the lens of positivity and optimism, even in a world that feels harsh. Orient yourself in the direction of joy, every single day. Focus on what's working in your life. Give more space to "it's all working out for me" to be true for you. Hope is not dangerous. It's essential. Be your own support system. Make your mind into a beautiful garden, where you can choose the most beautiful thought at any given time. No one deserves a life they love more than you. But you do need to create it, build it, curate it. You do need to trust yourself. You do need to let go of how you think it should be, and find out who you are, what your opinion is, what matters most to you. Know yourself. Choose yourself. Love yourself. Let your life bloom.

12 things to always remember. 1. The past can't be changed. 2. Opinions don't define your reality. 3. Everyone's journey is different. 4. Judgements are not about you. 5. Overthinking will lead to sadness. 6. Happiness is found within. 7. Your thoughts affect your mood. 8. Smiles are contagious. 9. Kindness is free. 10. It's okay to let go and move on. 11. What goes around, comes around. 12. Things always get better with time.

I know that you have a hard time. You are in big trouble. You are fearful. But please, let me reassure you. Fear is not real at all. Fear is just a ghost, unphysical and unable to hurt you at all. Fear is the product of your own imagination, and it is not the real thing if you stop imagining it. Look at you. You are not that weak to allow your fear to kill your dream. You need to fight back. Fight for what you love. Fight for what you dream of. Fight for your life. Fight against your fear. Let the history remember who the winner is. And you are the winner. But you have to win over your fear. Because if you don't, then fear will win over your dream. Now you have to decide. Live your fear or live your dream. Control your life or let your fear control you.

Dear Heart, lam proud of you I know things have been tough for you and you have shattered into pieces many times. I know there are things that bother you and people around you don't care. I know you are filled with loving memories of people who were close to you. I know destiny have not favoured you many times. I know there have been breakups that have shaken your faith in love. Just know that IT IS OKAY! Things happen, dream break, expectations are not met and life tricks us. I am really proud of you. I am proud of you that you gathered all the broken pieces of you and made yourself up. I am proud of you that every morning you get up with a faith that everything will be fine. I am proud of you that you still have not given up.

"My loneliness became the fire behind my ambition. I would no longer dwell in my desire to be loved; I would simply begin to love myself. I would get busy. I would work on myself harder than ever before. I would put all of my energy I had been using to pity myself for being alone towards something wonderful for myself. I was going to fall in love with being alive and find the purpose of each day. Little did I know, loving myself would lead me to the love I had previously been searching desperately for. I hadn't been looking, so he came right to me. Self love is everything. Never underestimate the power of your own drive."

sometimes letting go is Lonely but Better; sometimes holding on is better but painful; sometimes being hated is much more Peaceful than being Loved; sometimes all the happiness brings us the worst pain; and all these times all we wanna know is Why?. 'cause. we know that sometimes, we can never change the fault in our stars.

My current situation I'm not in a relationship, it's just I'm in love with someone, I can't unloved. I'm trying to smile, even though I'm not happy in real. I'm trying to survive everyday, even though I'm tired of everything and everyone.

Dear me, I understand, you want to be successful. You have to reach your dreams. But you're going through hard times. And you're puzzled by many things. And you endure so many wounds. So let me tell you: Be okay first. Heal. Take what you need. Don't think you're not allowed to. If you will get there-get there alive. Get there as you. by Jerico Silvers

Dear me, I am sorry. I'm sorry that you tried so desperately to fix others, when your own hands were shaking. I'm sorry that I didn't give you enough time to heal, that I let you seal the wounds of everyone else whilst your own were bleeding. I'm sorry that there were days when smiling hurt but you forced yourself to laugh so that no one had to worry about you. I'm sorry that you gave all of your time and effort to people that didn't give the same amount back. I'm sorry that there were nights when you cried yourself to sleep and no one bothered to understand why. And I am so sorry that I did not love you, like you deserved to be loved.

I'm slowly learning that even if I react, it won't change anything, it won't make people suddenly love and respect me, it won't magically change their minds. Sometimes It's better to just let things be, let people go, don't fight for closure, don't ask for explanations, don't chase answers and don't expect people to understand where you're coming from. I'm slowly learning that life is better lived when you don't center it on what's happening around you and center it on what's happening inside you instead. Work on yourself and your inner peace.

How do you figure out who you are? You stay right where you are. You dig. You learn the simplest facts about yourself. You date yourself. You daydream until you discover something that makes your chest feel even the smallest spark of hope. You question your darkest thoughts. You create rituals, soul-opening routines. You begin exactly where you are, with exactly what you have, and you work until every detail is made beautiful. You let yourself feel what you feel. You begin to act in self-loving ways even, and maybe most especially, when you fear you don't deserve it. You realize that you are growing through the discomfort. You learn to let yourself be.

First Thought: Sitting idle with my dreams When I was feeling blue. Playing with my thoughts, I unknowingly started thinking of you. From when I how it started I do not have a clue. It all happened so quietly And you became a part of my every view. Be with me in my mind and soul Be with me whatever I do I know you are always there But still I MISS YOU.

Know yourself, Don't aim to be understood by others before you understand yourself. People may never understand your intentions. You know them. They may never understand why you do what you do or say what you say. You know the reasons. They may never understand why you treat them the way that you do, or why you treat others the way that you do. You know why. They may never understand the words that you say or the language your eyes speak. You understand these languages because you create them. They may never understand the strength it takes to be the way that you are. You know your weaknesses and your struggles, and you are the one who works to overcome them, so your strength means more to you than it could ever mean to anyone else. It really isn't about what they understand by just looking at you. Is about what they want to understand, and if they really want to, they won't assume. They will ask.

Let Go They say that, at some point, you just learn to let go. I must disagree. If it just takes one moment to let go, then you never really held on tightly enough. To a dream. To a goal. To a place. To a person. To anything. I believe that you let go little by little. You let go a lite, then hold back on, but with a little less force until you fully release yourself. And the tighter you hold on, the more force you let go with. The deeper you dive, the higher you'll fly. The closer you get, the further you'll pull away. The weaker you feel, the stronger you'll become. So do not be ashamed of your weaknesses. We all have them. You must learn to be kind to yourself. You must learn to understand yourself. You must believe in yourself. Never think that you are a bad person. Differentiate between your self-worth and your actions. To say that you are bad is different than saying that you made a mistake. You can't fix yourself, but you can fix a mistake. And remember, not one person on this earth is perfect. We all make mistakes. We all fall. We all have flaws. We just need to look within ourselves and treat ourselves as humans who are worthy of respect and hope. Do not give up on yourself. Get back up. Be brave. Be happy.

Questions I have so many questions That I ask througut the day All the whys and what ifs All the things I need to say Why did this happen to me? What could I have done? What it I had been different? Why was I the one? Questions that seem unending Can plague the heart and mind Desperately seeking answers Where there are none to find. There ase so many questions That can only be answered by you the hadest question of all How will I get though?

No matter how strong you are, there was a relationship that almost took you to mental hospital.

Sometimes you are the toxic person. Sometimes you are the mean, negative person you're looking to push away. Sometimes the problem is you. And that doesn't make you less worthy. Keep on growing. Keep on checking yourself. Keep on motivating yourself. Mistakes are opportunities. Look at them, own them, grow from them and move on. Do better, be better. You're human. It's okay.

It took me a long time to realize that not everything in life is meant to be a beautiful story. Not every person we feel something deep and moving with is meant to make a home within us, is meant to be a forever. Sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how to love; and sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how not to love. How not to settle, how not to shrink ourselves ever again. Yes, sometimes people leave--but that's okay, because their lessons always stay, and that is what matters. That is what remains.

The world is filled with people who, no matter what you do, will point blank not Eke you. But it is also filled with those who will love you fercely. They are your people. You are not for everyone and that's ox. Talk to the people who can hear you. Don't waste your precious time and gifts trying to convince them of your value, they won't ever want what you're selling. Don't convince them to walk alongside you. You'll be wasting both your time and theirs and will likely infict unnecessary wounds, which will take precious time to heal You are not for them and they are not for you; politely wave them or, and continue along your way. Sharing your path with someone is a sacred gift; don't cheapen this gift by rolling yours in the wrong direction. Keep facing your true north.

Take care of your body, mind, and soul. Give yourself 6 months to get into the habit of practicing in radical self-care and self-love. Delete the app, block the number, wake up earlier, get dressed up even though you're not going anywhere, eat healthier, journal, have spa days, and exercise! This is your only life, do what you can to love and enjoy every aspect of it. No more waiting. Be the person you've always wanted to be. This is will not be like other times, this time you will change, you will stick to habits, and you will see results. I believe in you

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill; When the funds are low and the debts are high; And you want to smile but you have to sigh. When all is pressing you down a bit-Rest if you must, but don't you quit Success is failure turned inside out; The silver tint on the clouds of doubt; And you can never tell how close you are; It may be near when it seems far. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - It's when things go wrong that you must not quit."

Recently I read a book name called The Courage To Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga. This is the fourth idea of the book. "What if they don't like me?" This is a fear that is common to almost every human being. We're wired to thrive in communities - the fear of disapproval makes people freeze inside. The reality, though, is that someone will dislike us. Being okay with people not liking us is freedom. We wouldn't go and purposefully work to make people not like us. But we shouldn't let go of our authenticity and make people like us. We should be ourselves - and be okay whether people like us or not.

Recently I read a book name called The Courage To Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga. This is the third idea of the book. All Problems are Interpersonal Relationship Problems. No confidence? We are likely afraid of being judged by others. In other words, if there were nobody else in the world, our problems as we know them wouldn't exist. All our problems have the touch of other people in some way or the other. This statement helps us analyze other people's roles in our problems, which can help us take appropriate corrective measures.

Recently I read a book name called The Courage To Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga. This is the second idea of the book. People Fabricate Anger. Isn't anger a primal human emotion that is common to everyone? To insinuate that we fabricate anger? The youth in the book narrates an instance where a waiter accidentally spilled food on him, and the youth immediately burst into an outburst. The philosopher explained this interaction in a counterintuitive Adlerian perspective: the youth got angry so that he could shout. The youth understandably was bewildered. What the heck? It was but natural to lose control and get angry in such a situation. The philosopher countered - if the youth had a knife with him, this line of argument would say that it is natural to stab the waiter. Nope. Anger is a choice. Yes, a choice that has been conditioned as second nature over a long series of transactions. A choice nonetheless. And we can choose not to get angry - by training our minds over time.

Recently I read a book name called The Courage To Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga. This is the first Idea of the book. Trauma Doesn’t Exist. According to Adler’s philosophy, ourself is not defined by our experiences but the meaning we attribute to our experiences. And we give meaning in such a way that we experience trauma. If trauma is the natural response, the same situation would create trauma in every person. We know this is not the case. Some people experience trauma and others are resilient. We create trauma ans we equally deny it.

Sometimes you're unsatisfied with your life, while many people in this world are dreaming ofliving your life... A child on a farm sees plane fly overhead & dreams of flying. But, a pilot on the plane sees the farmhouse & dreams of returning home. That's life! Enjoy yours... if wealth is the secret of happiness, then the rich should be dancing on the streets. But only poor kids do that. If power ensures security, then officials should walk unguarded. But those who live simply, sleep soundly. If beauty and fame bring ideal relationships, then celebrities should have the best marriages. Live simply, walk humbly and love genuinely... All good will come back to you….!
