BEING A HUMAN BEING a simple guideline.

1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.

2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."

3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."

4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.

5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.

6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."

7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.

8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.

10. You will forget all this.

Small revelations!

Have you ever felt like you have over-exposed yourself, like you have revealed too much about yourself. So much so that, it starts feeling like people around you are reacting to these revelations, in whatever way, the little comments they make, their perception of you? How do you influence how people see and relate to you by what you reveal about yourself?


That is how I have been feeling of late, that I have revealed too much about myself? I feel like I have been complaining far too much and getting comfortable in this zone, feel like the reactions around me are as a result of what I have portrayed of myself. This is more proof to me that, what is on your mind is mirrored into your everyday life. So, maybe this is the point at which I start taking note of what I say, do ,think and portray, first and importantly to myself and then to what is mirrored on the outside. I am making a conscious decision to be positive, not because I am too worried about what other people out there think of me, but because I want to mirror only the best into my everyday experiences and life. If it is dark in here (in my head and my heart) then what is manifested is that, if on the other hand, I have peace, and a groundness so solid, that no matter what happens around me, I know that I am at peace and always calm, then my thoughts, state of mind and my heart will only bring the best to pass.

I am free

Today I feel free, free from the desire to keep looking, free from the desire to keep busy and occupied with all that is of this life


All in attempt not to “really” look at my life

I have come to the realization that, whatever the deep seated fears are, I will have to face them in order to attract to me all that is pure, untainted and beautiful

To bring to pass these dreams, I have to face the world each day and coax these dreams into being.

Not by banishing away the thoughts or refusing to look or listen to what is inside of me and running away from me, but by being there and allowing every thought to pass, without judgment and without drawing conclusions.

This indeed gives me the freedom; for I know I need not look anymore, whatever I seek will find me, because it all starts with an open heart, a positive mind and a profound desire to bring it to pass. Yes, it shall be!

Appreciate all that is life, its strains, joys, happiness and sorrows

It is about the journey after all, isn’t it?

Let’s enjoy the glorious and not so glorious in each and every waking moment.

So if you meet me, make sure to have a word, for I sure will share what is on my mind
