"Never give up on yourself"

Dear Readers,

Its been a long time we meet. I was taking isolation therapy by myself. I feel, I am running from myself. I wanna indulge in all good things where I can recharge myself back and bring me back on track.

I wanna listen to myself, Wanna spend time with my inner self (Together we’ll have good time😉). Long walks, music, dark chocolates, photography, blogging, running.. And much more I wanna do.

I don’t give a damn to people who don’t matter to me, but I am really concerned about certain people. I think that’s what is bothering me like hell. I need to be with me.

I have been through the depths of poverty and sickness. When people ask me what has kept me going through the troubles that come to all of us, I always reply, "I stood yesterday. I can stand today. And I will not permit myself to think about what might happen tomorrow."

I have known want and struggle and anxiety and despair. I have always had to work beyond the limit of my strength. As I look back upon my life, I see it as a battlefield strewn with the wrecks of dead dreams and broken hopes and shattered illusions--a battle in which I always fought with the odds tremendously against me, and which has left me scarred and bruised and maimed and old before my time.

Yet I have no pity for myself, no tears to shed over the past and gone shadows, no envy for the man who have been spared all I have gone through. For I have lived. They only existed. I have drunk the cup of life down to its very dregs. They have only sipped the bubbles on top of it. I know things they will never know. I see things to which they are blind.

I have learned in the great University of my heart Knocks a philosophy that no woman who has had an easy life ever acquires.

I have learned to live each day as it comes and not to borrow trouble by dreading the morrow. It is the darkness of the picture that makes cowards of us. I put that dread from me because experience has taught me that when the time comes that I so fear, the strength and wisdom to meet it will be given me. Little annoyances no longer have the power to affect me. After you have seen your whole edifice of happiness topple and crash in ruins about you, it never matters to you.

I have learned not to expect too much of people, and so I can still get happiness out of the friend who isn't quite true to me or the acquaintance who gossips. Above all, I have acquired a sense of humor, because there were so many things over which I had either to cry or laugh. And when a woman can joke over her troubles instead of having hysterics, nothing can ever hurt her much again. I do not regret the hardships I have known, because through them I have touched life at every point I have lived. And it was worth the price I had to pay.

Life has lots to bring. So, Never give up on yourself.

Stay Blessed!

_Yours,
Nutur_
