EMBRACE THE CHANGE

You rise, you fall, you stumble, you experience change,you face hardships and this is called as LIFE.
Life is unpredictable. When your life seems to be smooth and you are enjoying your perfect life, it can take one of its unkind cuts anytime and anywhere and when this happens,you are exposed to CHANGE. Its very easy to be brave during comfortable times, but what makes you stand out from the crowd is when you show that same level of audacity in times of change.Its not that only ordinary people encounter change, but those who remain undaunted and accept change valiantly becomes extraordinary.

There comes a time in everybody's life and at every stage when they have to open their wings and fly to a new environment.But,the difference lies in the perspective and attitude towards this transition. There are people who are complacent with themselves and their life even though they are amongst average ones and so,change to them is unacceptable.They are contented with what they have and don't want to grow. But, there are some who see change as an opportunity to expand, knocking at their door. Richard Bach said it so beautifully-"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world,the master calls the butterfly".They know that this change will take them far more closer towards their goals.They know that between them and their ambitious goals are hurdles and that the journey would be full of vicissitudes. And these are the same people who add extra to the ordinary.

Being in the safety zone for a long time, it becomes difficult to shake up your routine a little bit.
 You will feel out of your element when you enter in a new place. But, don't keep quitting as an option."Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever"  is well said by Lance Armstrong. Change is painful in the beginning but the results are astonishing. If you will cleave on to your past and to your cozy life, you will never be able to blossom in your life.Life will keep giving you bolts out of the blue,but you should be firm enough to face them.So, accept change!!

RISKS- By Janet Rand

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas, your dreams, before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return. To live is to risk dying. To hope is to risk despair. To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.                                                                     The person who risks nothing, does nothing,  has                                                              ...

"I AM FINE THE WAY I AM"

Image
I was in a clinic and was waiting for my turn to consult the doctor. Since it was taking too long, I just got into a conversation with the receptionist. She told me one incident that surprised me and I was miffed too. The receptionist had a friend who was slightly healthy. She did not look that awkward, but her close friends teased her and advised her to shed some weight off. Now, that girl took it so seriously that she went on dieting for weeks and ultimately was admitted to a hospital where she died! Just imagine the extent to which people go just to get a letter of approval with the signatures of this society! We all have a bad habit that we want to be loved by all. We don't want our haters to exist and this is the main reason why we don't accept our imperfections. In this struggle of becoming a perfect person, we end up becoming a messy person. If you want the world to love you, there is no need to pretend and be fake. It just requires a simple action: you need to l...

DISCOVER YOURSELF

The stage was set. All lights were dimmed. Holding their breaths, were the ecstatic students and staff, jam packing the auditorium. All eyes were fixed on the stage. And then, I entered, the spotlight was on me. I was completely on tenterhooks. My blood was running cold as it was the first time I was breaking out of my shell and shedding a part of my so called "studious" image. Above all, I was the protagonist of the play. Pulling myself together, I delivered my monologue and the crowd went crazy, absolutely smitten by my acting. I also ended up receiving "Best Actress" award. At that moment , I was introduced to a new side of mine. I always thought that acting was a hard nut to crack for me but I DISCOVERED MYSELF that day. Same goes with my writing interest. Books are something that intrigue me a lot. But,writing was surely not my cup of tea, I used to think earlier. One day, I just happen to write something which was admired by all and so, I created this blog...

A MASK TO MASK THE REAL YOU!

Image
The sun climbed over the skyline. The rays streaming through the window, fell gently on Amit's face, disturbing him from deep sleep. After much wallowing in bed, he finally got up, already exhausted from the thought of going to a business party.  But, his despair melted down as he saw a huge shelf thrusted with books. His eyes gleamed and a wide smile, symbolising his love for books, flashed on his face, pushing away the sorrow. An hour later, Amit was all decked up, dressed up to the nines, sporting an immaculate black tuxedo, that he had apparently bought from his hard-earned money just to impress everyone. He looked in the mirror. Everything was perfect but, one thing was missing- the mask!  As soon as he put it on, he turned into the Amit of the people. The introvert and 'not a party lover' turned into a gregarious and a party person. The 'book lover' turned into the one who would say, "Books? How boring!". So, there Amit was at the pa...
