Life! A word set right to describe childhood days. Roaming around fearlessly, with friends, and a lot of playtime with them in the park besides our house. Lukka chuppi, baraf paani, loha lakkad, and cricket; those were an all-time favorite. Childhood is the best time of life, isn’t it? Because the time that comes after it isn't easy to deal with. The fight with work, people, bosses, and yourself isn’t going to be easy.
“And you always end up paying a very heavy price for keeping people in your heart.”
“Love doesn’t provide you with benefits or losses, it just happens. No conditions and no guidelines. And it's never in control.”
Mili nigaaho se nigaahein main rok na paya khud ko. Dost khada tha mera peeche, girte girte usne sambhala tha mujh ko. Uske chehre se barasta noor mujhe usko dekhte rehne par majboor kiye ja raha tha. Wo dheeme dheeme sharmati, haule haule balkhati. Kya khubsoorti thi, kya adaa thi. Usey likhna, usey bayaan karna, uski khubsoorti ki tauheen thi maano.
The real test of friendship is when it goes through tough times, friends drift apart, but they unite back and that's the true meaning of friendship. Friendship is the real gem you earn in life and it stays with you forever. But if it leaves you hanging mid-road, then it wasn’t a true friendship.
It is not easy to maintain a long-distance relationship, but that doesn’t mean that the person you love changes with the distance. If the person is right for you no matter the distance you are separated with they will always love you and be with you. But, if they are not the ones that you think they are, the distance will ruin the relationship, no matter how strong you have built the foundation, the relationship will fall apart.
“Everyone wants love, but give it to that person who will care about your love and would appreciate your efforts in being with that person. Overdoing things would result in losing your self-respect and also the love given by you, eventually you'd be ignored by the other person.”
“If you succeed in cheating someone, don’t think that the person is a fool, realise that the person trusted you much more than you deserved.”
Never lose your self respect for someone ever in your life. Don’t beg for their love, respect or time ever. Doing this would make you lose your self respect in front of the person and they would never appreciate the efforts you put in the relationship. I told everything to my friends whatever happened and everyone, Honey, Tulya Pawni showered me with care and love. Trust me sharing things with your friends will make it easier for you to come out of the situation, at least you won’t feel alone.
If you love someone, you need to have the patience to keep up with it. You will eventually have that person in your life. But if that person doesn’t come into your life, don’t waste another moment on it and move on with your life.
It is important to love someone, but everything is supposed to be done in moderate amounts. You wouldn’t ever like more pepper in your dish, would you? So why give attention, love, and care more than it is needed? If you keep giving more than the necessity, you will end up losing your value and eventually all your love and care will be taken for granted.
Do not stay available for a person every second of every day. You need to focus on your own life, your career, your personality. Keep them with you forever. People will keep coming and going from your life, but you will have to stay with you, so make sure that your future is bearable.
Don’t look for happiness in other people. You never know when they would change, and when the situations would change in such a manner that they’d have to leave. Be your own happiness.
Don’t put your expectation on anyone, if they’re giving you something - accept it, if they don’t then don’t expect it. It’s all about ACCEPTING and EXPECTING. Be responsible for your own happiness
Time is really precious, don’t waste it. On a person or a thing. Make the most of the time you have right now.
Keep up with your self respect, do not ever let it down, and never in front of a person. If you do so, that person will lose all the respect for you. Keep your respect in your own hands.
You would definitely be important for someone, but that won’t stay the same or last forever.
Do not ever ruin your friendship for a person who entered your life recently. Friends are really important, they will support you and guide you. Keep your love life and friendships separate. The day you mix them, you’ll end up losing one or the other.
Do not fall in love with someone blindly, nor trust anyone blindly. The more you put your trust in someone, the more are the chances of being hurt immensely.
Every person that enters, stays or leaves your life, teaches you a lesson. Do not keep any hatred in your heart. It’s your heart, fill it with love and not hate.
Karma comes back to you in this life, so make sure that you don’t hurt anyone intentionally or unintentionally.
The way we accept people, we have to be accepted in the same way.
You can never forget someone, but after a while it stops creating an impact on your heart and mind.
Give time the time to heal you. I am sure you will feel better.
