Memories...

Memories... what does this word mean? Sometimes a good (or even bad) thing that happened in our past.
Childhood memories, love memories, friends and family memories - all of this is part of our lives. If we couldn't recall all the who's, what's, where's, we would never be able to manage.

I think to myself that sometimes, I wish I could go back to certain moments of my past, but what for? It is hard to look back but also it makes us stronger, right?

Memories are episodes that help us hold onto the things we love, the things we are and the things we never want to lose. i am a strong believer that memories are a BIG part of your life and never, ever stop creating them.

Finding Yourself

When you know who you truly are, there is an abiding alive sense of peace. You could call it joy because that's what joy is: vibrantly alive peace. It is the joy of knowing yourself as the very life essence before life takes on form. That is the joy of Being - of being who you truly are.

Winter Fav *Hot Drinks*

It's Winter!!! (Good thing for some, not so good for others). At this time of the year, all we want after a long day at work, is to relax in front of the fireplace with a warm drink in hand (while watching your favourite tv show, of course). So, I have decided to share my favourite hot drinks for this season.

1. Hot Chocolate (with cream and marshmallow, always!!)
2. Latte
3.Cappucino
4. Mocha
5. Herbal Tea

These are the perfect combination for a warm and cosy evening. Who does not enjoy one of these? I for sure do, and they are, without a doubt, my guilty pleasure.

Friendship

Everyone has a close friend to whom we call best friend. This person becomes so important in our life than without them we become "lost". They know all our secrets, our qualities, our flaws. Together we laugh, we cry and they are always there for us. I heard a song by Cher Lloyd called "Oath" and the lyrics describe perfectly the term Friendship.

Three Simple Rules

Three Simple Rules to life:

1. If you don't chase something, you will never get it.
2. If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3. If you don't take the first step, you will end up in the same place.

Now take a moment to reflect on the above "rules".  Nothing less to say other than Take a chance, Make a change.

Trapped - Our actions, Our choices

It is crazy to think that sometimes we feel trapped within our actions, but sometimes you cannot help but feel hopeless.
-Ever thought that the way you feel now is because of  something you did in the past?
Well, I can say that this, is exactly how I feel now!! While I was talking to someone today, something snapped in my head and everything just made sense... I made the wrong choice!!! I believed, I heard, I fell for it...I choose to do wrong. The question is why, my answer is - don't question yourself. Just make the right choices from now on, and do not look back (yes, I know how hard it is). Get up, go out, enjoy your day with friends/family and have fun. Be yourself and never forget... Your actions are based on your choices.

Everything happens for a reason...

Do you ever wonder why things happen? Why didn't my relationship work? Why am I being punished for something I didn't do? Why is life hard? Think again!!

First of all, life is not hard. Be grateful. Secondly, everything happens for a reason. there is always a reason why something is not right or why something is so right!

All we have to do is be happy for the little things that we have and embrace life with full open arms.

Everytime you are having a bad day, THINK! Do not let anything or anyone come your way... and remember Everything happens for a reason.
