Never compromise yourself..!!

When you have to start compromising yourself and your morals for the people around you, it’s probably time to change the people around you.

Remember that we all live our own lives. We do not live the life of another. For us to reach our pre-ordained destiny and realize our dreams, there will be many critics in life whom we have to put them on "ignore" mode; be it their insults, opinions and judgments - you’ll have to cast them all aside. For if you do not; then it means you are letting them control your life. The outcome is such that you would become so estranged from yourself and feel like the real YOU is trapped inside you screaming to let it out. Do you want to go through such myriad of emotions? NO. So, exclude yourself from all such people who create nothing but instigate you, pollute your mind and create mayhem with a whole lot of drama in your life just to add spice to their entertainment.

As Ayn Rand rightfully says "I need no warrant for being, and no word of sanction upon my being. I am the warrant and the sanction."; isn't this true..?? This should be the guiding principle of all our lives.

To live your life in your own terms, first you need to have a strong sense of your self within, evoke your consciousness at the deepest level and take only radical n' practical decisions as is the need of the hour.It is important that you do not let the vagaries of life leave their imprints on you. Learn from them; unlearn and relearn if you've to.. it's a must..!! If you can ensure that you've defined your own boundaries and value system, which means that you essentially know who the real YOU is and can take care of your being; then you are equipped to take care of and hold the handle of your life.

Remember always ~
Don’t compromise yourself. You’re all you’ve got..!!

So very true, I have experienced this situationand hence, can confidently state that whatever written is true and correct and my advise to everybody is to really give a thought to what is written here and always keep this in mind. The life when lived for others is far too miserable and not worth living.
Thanks Mehul..!! I too have written post similar experience in life.

Darkness Sorrow Loneliness Silence

      Can darkness grow darker? It can. When darkness grows darker, blackhole vacuums all trace of hope, and the soul surrenders to an unlit void. Can sorrow grieve? It can. When sorrow grieves, grief is the process that your heart goes through, and sorrow is the feeling your heart feels while grieving. Can loneliness lose itself in solitude? It can. When loneliness merges into solitude, you self-create an unwanted isolation, and empower an involuntary state of mind to mislay your existence. Can silence grow quiet? It can. When silence grows quiet, calmness and peacefulness cultivate, and the mind boosts paving way for creation. Let it.

Matter of choice..!!

Heck, three decades of life's journey and I didn't know whether I was coming or going..!! Seen it all... my dad's death right before my eyes, my marriage falling apart in 3 hours (I used to think it only happened in Hollywood..!!), disconnect within family, career swinging uphill and downhill, ghastly accident, financial crisis, betrayal in love, friends who were not really friends, solitude, depression... the list would go on n' on. Hell, I even attempted suicides when I couldn't take it in anymore but I survived. What did I learn from it..?? I was destined to live . Deep in the rampant carnage of what was left of my so-called "life" that was disintegrating me rapidly, I realized, I had to pause and make sense out of it as it was me and me alone who could get the handle on my life again. Death is an obvious, why then was I running towards it when it was running away from me? Whatever had to happen had happened and it was over. Why then was I not
