When will I love Me?

I get hurt.Mebbe others get hurt too.And cry too.And get fed up of crying.Chuck everything, and say "To hell with this world"..decide to move on.And find themselves crying again.

From my observation,good and nice people cry more.Coz u wouldnt come across bigger fools than them.Am not talking abt goodness or being nice as foolishness.The problem arises when they expect others to be good too.Why will others be good to u? Jus coz u were good to them? Ha! Quid pro quo works only if someone is rubbed the wrong way.Otherwise people are happy for being treated nicely and conveniently forget about it.

To be loved in return.The eternal human need.Love.People want to love someone. And want to be loved in return.And my god,what all they endure for this! If only a fraction of that effort was spent in loving oneself...

Ever thought if you love yourself? How much? How do you love yourself? What do u do when you love yourself? Why is it so difficult to love yourself? Coz u know ur shortcomings, ur mistakes n faults... and this is the reason,when u discover the other person u 'loved' aint tht perfect as u tght, u get disillusioned. Nobody loves the other person's vices. Coz nobody can accept their own.

You'll buy gifts and roses and do what not for the person you love. Ever spared a thought to think what you would do for yourself if you loved yourself? Most people go blank. A treat at your favt restaurant, or an expensive indulgence or something as materialistic would be the answer of the remaining. None would promise to keep loving their own self forever.

This may sound like one of those centerspread articles frm TOI on sundays, but I was reading a blog when I came across a line.."All she wanted was love..." and I lost my cool. Everybody wants love,dammit. Big deal. And everybody goes through heartbreaks. So? You'll keep crying all your life,is it? Heck,why blame tht other person when you, yourself, arnt intrested in keeping your life happy and cheerful? He left you and you left yourself. And you carry on the search for someone who will love you. You crave for love. Coz you need to be loved,for you are a human being,after all! You cant love yourself. You always need someone else to do that for you.

Face it, if you cant love the person you are, the person you've being with all this years....what justice can you do to another person?? On second thoughts, seriously,AIIC!

Dazed

At times I'm a little lost. Something is on in my mind, but I have no clue what it is. Moving ahead becomes difficult coz something is holding you back. Restlessness and anxiety take over. What on earth is happening? I feel like walking alone in the night. Guess that should soothe me down... Hmm. © Zarine.

A Mid-Life start – Down Under – Part 1

I didn’t know there was a template for a blog post in MS word. In the last 2 years, an idea which was dormant in my idea for about 2 decades or so started germinating. It was mostly watered by the birth of my daughter (that sounded weird) It was about migrating to Australia. There was something about this place which allured me. It was away, self-sufficient, least bothered, aloof, didn’t give a damn and it was both ugly and pretty. It was me in a lot of ways. I started the immigration process by visiting those visa consultants (a special mention of a friend, TJ, a discussion with whom helped me narrow it down) and then over the period of the next 4-5 months struggled through the documentation process. Husband complied wherever possible, but was mostly a sleeping partner in the whole process (that’s very unlikely of him, though. As I discover much later that he played along as he wasn’t much keen on migration, but did so on my behest).  Nevertheless, half of 2014 and all o

Personal Branding

I want to separate out the word personal from branding. I think a personal brand is the moment when you start to lie. Focus first on the personal and you beat up all the competition instantly. Just being honest, being yourself, doing the work, applying the daily practice for just a few months, and your personal self will come to life more than it ever has before. You'll be honest with the people around you and that automatically beats all the competition because they’re too slick, too dishonest, too focused on their brands. You’re not focused on that anymore. When you come up with honest, sincere ideas for people, and you give rather than expecting to take, then you suddenly have separated yourself out from 99 percent of the competition. You win. And it’s that easy to do it.
