Me and my thoughts

Everyone needs a space A place to relax A place to rejuvenate A place to be This can be a cosy corner in our house Or this can be place infused with nature Or a secret location which remains a mystery This is an essential aspect of our lives We require a place to let go To unravel the stress of the drama To ponder the past and future To accept the inevitable To draw strength and inspiration Everyone needs a Querencia And mine is the sea

What is the difference between a house and a home A house is built of bricks and cement It is the emotionless structure It might protect you from the harshest weather But it can never provide warmth It can give you a place to sleep But it can never provide comfort It can give you a refined outlook But it can never provide respect It can give you a place to eat But it will never satisfy your inner desire A home is built of love and compassion And it can make you feel loved and cherished

We all use the word sacrifice We have let go of something For our loved ones Or for the greater good This could be simple as a chocolate Or even a relationship Though all of might not boast about it We still pride ourselves of the fact At least to ourselves We feel good about it And replay that memory on a cold day However most of us do not know The real meaning of the term It means putting other’s need first At the cost of sacrificing our own Every day soldiers die To protect the nameless faces of the nation And that is the ultimate sacrifice

Have you played chess? The game has a simple goal Protect your king at all costs However, life is a little different Ok, it is entirely different Life is not a one-person show We cannot sacrifice the pawns As much as we want to The queen will not always protect you She needs to be pampered at times The bishops might be busy in their own lives Sometimes, we have the tendency To treat others as supporting characters We consider our purposes to be crucial And do not offer a second thought for others These moves might be right for chess But life needs a different approach

We meet so many people in life We subconsciously divide them into different categories How many people do we see every day? How many people do we actually see? Most of them are passing clouds There is a blur in our picture Some people make an impact And deserve a second look Some people make their way into our life Some stay with us forever However, there is always that one person Who makes us happy and sad They make us curious They give us warmth They awaken our inner sources They make us pledge our souls And they change our world But it is worth it

I really have no time I am too busy I am swamped with work These are a few reasons which give others To avoid spending time for them Sometimes we become so involved That we fail our loved ones We tell ourselves that it is for their benefit That our work with guarantee their future However, we do not seem the loss Time is not fluid, as it looks But our relationships might wither away People might stop needing us We could lose the moment Everyone has a specific duration in earth No one can predict this period We ignore people in the assumption That we have eternity with them However, it is an illusion Though we might not spend hours for them A few minutes will do the trick Our work can be scheduled But the precious moments of relationships will never wait

Mothers are superheroes and angels Or at least that’s what we believe Our mothers are our first love They are our first fans and first critics They are our inspiration and guide They motivate and encourage us However, sometimes they fail They do not understand us We feel that she is not up to the current trend They are strict and occasionally tough We fail to realise that deep down she means good That she is new to the whole process Though we see her as a superwomen She struggles with her limitations Yet she is always there for us Let's love with all her characteristics

Love comes in various forms It is an essential aspect of our lives It is the only constant emotion in life    The recipient might vary But the emotions do not waver It motivates us And offers us a purpose in life It gives us a reason to fight To be creative To be passionate It is the primary emotions Most of our feeling evolve from this single point The first love plays a crucial role It influences and shapes our life Whether we realise it or not The first love is from our mother
