Trust

In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in the strength of its bond.

The base premise of every relation is trust. Its easy to begin with trust but maintaining it at the same wavelength calls in for a lot of understanding, daunting unwavering will, continual transparency and unconditional belief. When someone with whom you connect and forge a relation gives you his/her trust, and you accept it, then it is your sacred duty to preserve the sanctity of the relation by not breaking the trust. Again, trust is not a single lane; its a highway and needs to be felt and maintained either side. 

Be wary of whom you choose. Its a melee of people out there and not everyone are genuine. Sift the real from the fraudulent. Some fake people get into a relation and win your trust not because they are fond of you or value you; its just that they are curious to know more about you. Steer clear from such deceitful two-faced people. Its not the worth your time efforts and emotions. When you feel, you've found the right person, don't spill all your beans instantly. Take baby steps; get to know the person better and then only start sharing. After all, you do not want to go through the surge of emotions and heart break that will bring your life to a temporary halt when you realize you counted on an unworthy person and your confession backfired and misused. Time takes a long time to heal and get you to a state where you can move on; so do consider all the factors before you plunge in.

As an end note, all I can say is follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel and weigh the answer. Learn to trust your heart while you keep your head on your shoulders. Strike a balance between both before you commit. 

Remember always, "Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair."

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

Moving On...

If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you. ~ T. S. Eliot Life can hit real hard at times. Some incidents knock you down, some breeze past while some blow you out and bring you to your knees. How many times do we wallow in the bitterness of our lives that has embittered us deeply to the extent of them leaving a dent on us? Be it the emotional upheavals due to the lows in business or career, a broken heart, being grossly misunderstood, lovelorn, untrue accusations, drifting away of close relations, death of revered ones, frayed experiences of being used as a pawn after having been unknowingly kept in the dark, caught in Catch 22 situations, the list would go on endlessly... It's oft said, "Move On...". Do not hold back onto the past, live in the present, dream of the tomorrows that are waiting to unfold themselves with time. Is it really as easy as it is said? NO. For the value system inculcated
