Life is always about learning. I feel that the moment one stops learning, one stops living. I have been trying to capture what I learned so far in my life. Obviously there is no end to it and I am still learning. Here are a few.
I have learned that
- life's most beautiful gifts are most often the smallest.
- you cannot make some one love you, all you can do is make yourself some one who can be loved
- no matter how much you care for a person, the person need not reciprocate. But you still have to go on caring because that is what you truly want to do.
- it takes a long time to build trust and love, but it takes only a few seconds to decimate them.
- if you stop to count the good deeds you have done, you would have nothing remaining to count.
- it is best to let your loved ones know that you love and care, because you never know whether or when you would get a chance to tell them so.
- there is nothing you need to fear but the doubts about your own capability
- there is nothing that is not worthy of you. Every task you do is worth doing because He deemed so.
- there is no point in life you are alone. You are just too engrossed in yourself to look around.
- you need to be brave, not for the sake of being brave, but because you believe in whatever you are up to and need to stand up for it.
- no matter how convincing an argument sounds, there is always another side that you need to hear
- no matter how good a friend is, there will always be instances you will get hurt by him or her. But you got to accept that because you accepted the friend as a whole not just the good side of him or her.
- it is so easy to forgive others and perhaps, easy to be forgiven by others, but so hard to forgive yourself
- there is no end to understanding a person. The moment you stop understanding, the relation stops being progressive.
- simplicity is mistaken as outward simplicity which is easier to achieve and perceive. Th simplicity of the mind is what is more beautiful and harder to perceive
- you don't go about looking for a "perfect" time to do something that is right, the time is perfect whenever you do whatever you wanted to do.
- you can dwell on the past and understand the meaning, but you have live life forwards not backwards
- some times there seems to be no point in going through painful moments, but we are definitely not the ones to judge the usefulness of pain.
- you are always capable of giving, it is simply a choice you have to make.
- you are the only one responsible for what you have become.
- you can either continue to wane in your grief or shrug it all and rise to a new day. The world is not going to stop for you to get over your grief.
- there is no "right" way to look at things. You can only look the way that feels right to you.
- hardest thing to achieve is being honest with yourself and being kind to yourself. Both will carry you longer than you can possibly imagine.
- there is always place in your heart to love someone. You need not pack people in.
- love sets you free and does not bind you in chains. Possessiveness is not a part of love.
- all things you see affect you. You only don't realize it because you have a squelcher at work.
- people have the toughest time understanding the most simple thing because they can't believe that things are as simple as they are.
- that learning always continues.....................
