"Be The Real You"

Whenever you find yourself drowning in self-hate, you have to remind yourself that you weren't born feeling this way.
That at some point in your journey, some person or experience sent you the message that there was something wrong with who you are,

And you internalized those messages and took them on as your truth.
But that hate isn't yours to carry, and those judgements aren't about you.
And in the same way that you learned to think badly of yourself,
You can learn to think new, self-loving and accepting thoughts.
You can learn to challenge those beliefs, take away their power, and reclaim your own.
It won’t be easy, and it won’t happen over night. But it is possible.
And it starts when you decide that there has to be more to life than this pain you feel.
It starts when you decide that you deserve to discover it.
So don’t fear the judgements of others; you know in your heart who you are and what’s true to you.
You don’t have to be perfect to impress people.
Let them be impressed by how you deal with your imperfections.

To Be

Life is what you make of it... very cliche, I know.  But it is true. You get what you never wanted and what you are dying to have, you never get.

Sometimes you do get it but "social conformity" ( ;) fancy words..lol)  snatches it away.

1 or maybe 2 things I know is life goes on, take it or leave it!

Grow and let grow

It takes some moments to realise you're no longer who you used to be.
 
Notice the change when it happens. If it be good, then, happily admit it to yourself. If bad, bravely admit it too but work on yourself.

We learn everyday. The knowledge gained are applied at different times and situations in our daily lives- sometimes, consciously or unconsciously.

In any case, if you're privileged not to mess up as often as others do, understand that maybe you're better 'equipped' than them. So, grow and allow others to do same as well.

To Think Truth

To think what you want to think is to think TRUTH, regardless of appearances. Every man has the natural and inherent power to think what he wants to think, but it requires far more effort to do so than it does to think the thoughts which are suggested by appearances. To think according to appearance is easy; to think truth regardless of appearances is laborious, and requires the expenditure of more power than any other work man is called upon to perform.

Little Spark

"It takes a little spark
To keep a fire burning.
Soon it spreads and warms up
everything and everybody around.
That's same with God's love
Once you experience it,
It lights you up
You wanna sing
You wanna dance
And wanna pass it on"
