Self Healing



One of the significant life lessons that I have learned { the hard way } is that no matter how bad , horrible, difficult and hopeless your circumstances are, you still can be yourself. It is like sitting in a dense  jungle and writing your { about to be } best- selling novel in the midst of the roars of wild animals that roar but do not bite.

Creative people uses their creativity in this way. For them, a blank canvass { art }, a notebook and a pen {writing }, a needle { embroidery }, a spade { gardening } and even the spatula { cooking } for instance, can be life saving weapons or act like life saving medicines.

I have learned that vulnerability and courage can go together. There is no reason why one cannot be weak, timid and silent yet at the same time, speak their minds or do their own business. After all, words are always not needed to get what you want from life, right ? Silence can be effective as well.

In the worst of times, when we know that nothing seems to be going our way, we just give up and wait for better times to come. I also did that, earlier. But not anymore.

I have learned that bad times go away and we still do not recover.

That's why, it is better to keep on doing what we love as usual even in the midst of bad times so that when good time comes, we would realize that we did not give in to the external circumstances { circumstances beyond our control }. Also by doing this, we would not feel the anxiety or fear of another bad time coming .

Keep doing what we love, keep doing what pleases us...even under difficult life situations .... even  if we are sick, even if we are hurt, even if we think that events are beyond our control, or even if nobody cares...
For inside each one of us , we have the power to heal and the power to love ourselves.
And the power to create magic !
