Myriad thoughts

Things I wish mom told me :-

i)                Sometimes the people you’ll love, will not love you back. Don’t worry. Love is still love, even if it isn’t returned.

ii)              There will be days when things are great but there will be more days when the sun will refuse to shine. Know, the cloudy days may not be bright but they bring rain. And that’s beautiful.

     iii)             You will miss people while sitting next to them. And that’s not poetic.

iv)             People will say “forever” and one fine day they will leave without giving you any prior notice. Because leaving is easy, you know?.

v)              Life will break you down and there will be a lot of blood spilling out of your mouth. And that’s how it is. You can’t win everything.

vi)             on some nights you’ll want to go back to the one who tied your stomach in knots, back in the chemistry class, six winters ago. But remember, the past should only be revisited in your head.

vii)           “move on” is a perfect lie. To forget someone you don’t need new love, you need a new heartbreak. So, live anyway.

viii)         Not everyone will be able to love you. That’s okay. But know that something is wrong if you fail to love yourself.

ix)             You will fail to love yourself time and again if your happiness is somewhat linked with that of all the physical things (or the people who don’t respect you).

x)               All the time. Remind yourself that your love for yourself exceeds anything that you have ever felt for anyone else.

xi)             You are complete with that smile on your face, singing a duet in the shower by yourself. so, be happy.
