Have you ever woken up with the realization that you have been doing it all wrong? The approach you have been following, the idea you have been forming, basically every single thing you have done till today is NOT you.
The goal which you have been working hard to achieve was never yours. You did not want your future like you have always dreamed of.
You have been working towards “securing” yourself. You have always done something which was expected from you. You never gave importance to your thoughts, your peace of mind and your actual goals.
You always wanted to blend in, you always wanted to be normal just because that’s what everyone else was doing.
But, fitting in made you blank, it took away all your uniqueness and your ideas.
Until that one day.
That one day made you realize what you actually want with your life. It showed you your real goals. That one day helped you in discovering who you really are.
Now, you don’t crave for fitting in, you don’t want to blend with the masses, you just want to be unapologetically YOU!
That realization made you value your own happiness and state of mind. If somebody says you are different, you thank the kind human with a smiling face now. You have stopped yourself from being overpowered by the perceptions.
Even if you are supposed to blend in, don’t lose your charm!
Be your own definition.
You know what you are worth of!
As they say different people, different perceptions! The only person whose opinion matters is YOU.
You get to decide what and who you are.
So, don’t let your unique spark fade away.
Cheers to the first realization!

When we have confidence in ourselves and belief in ourselves, we can do what we want to do. But many a time I think of all those women who are still prisoners in their own houses and in their society. We are in the 21st century but sometimes it is as if nothing has changed.
Good post:)

I agree. Most of us are just a step away from taking the most important step. Only thing which is stopping us our own insecurities which were initiated by the society. Society is supposed to uplift or just let things be the way they are. Thank you for your comment 🙂
