There’s chaos, there’s fight
There’s love & there’s light
There are questions & truths to discern
& There are answers I am trying to confirm
There’s hurt, there’s mess, there’s much of pain
& then there’s love, light & peace again

There’s ego, there’s fear
There are smiles, there are tears
Oh what a paradox I live
Everything is so cloudy
Yet everything is so clear

These cycles of heaven & hell
Scream at me almost deafening me

But Oh dear lord, the hopeless optimist in me
hears a lullaby even amidst the screams
as I struggle to sleep
As these subtle illusions tiptoe
Like an expert creep

Yet with all my might, I defy the noise
& put an ear to these superficial walls,
to listen to the little voice that softly tells
A secret buried under these illusions
if we dare to dig
With so much love, I hear it speak

“Be patient, my love.
Blink away the tears so you can clearly see
All of this, all of you - is meant to be”

You are much more than your skin & bones.
You are much more than the lies you were told.
No, you are not scattered fragments of mess.
Listen to me,
what you are is a mosaic made of gold
You are beautifully whole 🧡

The good & the bad
The gods & the demons
As humans,
there are both within us
& how do we dance with them in this beautiful drama called life?
That’s completely up to us.

You did well 🧡


When they said you weren’t pretty, you didn’t believe them.
You did well.

When they said you had a mean heart, you didn’t believe them.
You did well.

When they said you brought bad luck, you didn’t believe them.
You did well.

When they said you couldn’t do well in a bigger city, you didn’t believe them.
You did well.

When they said it’d be hard for you to find a partner, you didn’t believe them.
You did well.

When they showered you with all the negatives, you filtered it all - only listened to your heart.

You never turned sour.
You did well.

When it seemed like all the doors were shut & there was no way out. You stubborn child - you still didn’t believe it.
You did well.

All that noise, all that dirt & like a lotus, you bloomed through it.
My love, you did so effing well!

I am so proud of you ❤

Please be good to yourself.  
Be patient with yourself.
Be a friend to yourself.
All the love
you yearn to shower upon someone else
How about,
some of it, you give it to yourself?? 🧡

Immensely grateful
To have the privilege to open my eyes and witness today
To get to ride all the highs and lows with every emotion I feel
To get hurt but also have the opportunity to heal
To get to whine and cry at times
To get overwhelmed with joy when the stars align
Just grateful to be one of us
To get to be me
Today, here and now,
However it may be,
I am grateful that it is
🌸🌸🌸

I am very blessed.
I have swam through oceans of pain, trauma, heartbreak & what not.
I have been smacked by life at times, hurt by my dearest in ways that gave me wounds that seemed impossible to heal
I have faced the demons in myself & my loved ones
I have seen the worst of myself & them
I have been broken a zillion times & but always managed to piece myself together with love, faith & patience.
I have sewn a hundred wounds on my own in silence
I have nourished myself with tears & screams that needed to be let out.
I have loved myself & everyone else even at the most difficult times
It’s not been easy but it’s all been a part of this ride - everything in the end has been a blessing in disguise.

You might see me immersed in joy & think oh what is not there for her to be happy? She has got it all
Yes! I have had - all the goods & the bads.
It’s about what you focus on.
It’s about what you let the hurt do to you.
It’s about what you do with the things life throws at you 💛

~ I have got my share of baggage too 💜🌸
But I choose to be happy. I choose to forgive.
I choose to be grateful. I choose to be alive.
I choose to listen to the unspoken.
I choose to speak of what isn’t talked about often.
