The purpose of life...

What is the purpose of LIFE?

What if life's purpose is to find out the purpose of life? What if it is too late by the time you find out life's purpose? What if you are unable to identify the life purpose? What if you identify the purpose and not fulfil the purpose?

You can overthink and make it as complicated as you want it to be. The simple answer would be - the purpose of the life is to LIVE. And to LIVE is to WIN and FAIL, to LEARN and UNLEARN, to know HOW TO FLY and to know HOW TO REMAIN ROOTED, to LAUGH and CRY, and to ACCEPT and REJECT, to GO WITH THE FLOW and REMAIN STILL. 

And that's the PURPOSE of life!

Self Love

Should the cabin experience sudden pressure loss, stay calm and listen for instructions from the cabin crew. Oxygen masks will drop down from above your seat. Be sure to secure your own mask before assisting others…


Something struck me after listening to the flight announcement for the umpteenth time. Well, I thought, this is probably what self love is. 

SELF LOVE, is one of the most misunderstood word, which is often mistaken as being selfish and at times consider as a moral flaw. It takes a lot to understand what self love is and to put to practice is another level. 

The definition of self love might differ from person to person. For me, self love could be as simple as having a cup of froth-filled hot coffee while listening to your favorite song to as complex as prioritizing yourself, setting boundaries, saying NO, accepting your imperfections, forgiving yourself, getting out of a toxic relation,  and so on! In totality, self love is for mind, body, and the soul!

It is OKAY to momentarily experience discomfort by saying NO than to say YES and resent! It is OKAY to have a strong boundary and protect your energy. It is OKAY to call out if your boundary is violated. It is OKAY to seek forgiveness if it helps you. It is OKAY to Prioritize yourself. 

Afterall, putting yourself first is not a selfish act!!!
