Embracing Myself
The world is filled with abundant examples of how to live a life. Even with such varied choices to pick from it lacks the most important one. How to be yourself. Nobody can teach you that, it’s a mystery in unraveling.
Though people teach us what they know, who’s gonna teach us about the unknown? Nobody can. We discover the unknown, self learn about the discovery. We all make mistakes along the way in this world as we try to live our life. We may be writing the same exam but each one of us has a unique questionnaire. Some of them require help from others, some require you to help others & the most difficult ones might be the ones we have to take on all alone. Like finding the lost spark in a room filled with darkness. We learn and teach and leave behind our knowledge for others to rediscover.
“No blueprints to refer
No trail to follow
When you tend to defer
& feel nothing but shallow
Open your arms wide
Hug yourself tight
Kiss yourself right
& whisper, it’s okay to slide
Aren’t we all constantly changing
Seeking & trying
Failing & learning
Bit by bit, slightly evolving...”
Everything we do in the past makes us the person, who we are today. Everything we do today makes the person who we are tomorrow. Every part of our life, the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful, the forgettable ones & the valuable memorable ones all are experienced by us to be the version of us we are now. Learning to embrace all parts of us is the first step towards understanding ourselves completely.
Show yourself some compassion when figuring out your passion. Not everyone has answers to all their questions with themselves. We all have our own timelines, don’t try to merge into other’s timelines cuz you’ve started at the same point too.
Embrace yourself, there’s nothing wrong with it. In fact, it’s essential to not lose parts of yourself. The ones that make you uniquely you.
