The first flight she ever took alone

A little apprehensive, a little scared and full of excitement she boarded her first flight alone! 

Off to a different Land,with a different language and a different culture, she was eager to explore and live her dream.

When the flight landed, the world unravelled to her a magnificent painting.

She could hardly believe she was living in it.

It felt like the place had renewed her spirit  and revitalised her.

Suddenly all worries, responsibilities and plans receeded into the background.

She was living in the moment.

Over the next few days, she met amazing people and developed deep emotional bonds.

Although the people did not speak crisp English, she understood that language isn't as much a barrier as people make it.

She also felt that human compassion is way too underrated.

The little chats with these different people changed how she perceived the world.

The stories they told engrossed her and amazed her.

The pictures they showed left her in awe.

She realised how different they were from her and how this difference was good.

She faught many of her fears abroad.

She went on roller coasters ,allowed herself to indulge in alcohol and most importantly learnt how to live alone.

While leaving she was a changed person! 

Her soul was liberated and she was determined! 

She was determined to live her life on her terms! 

This flight abroad had indeed been her first flight.

Letting Go.

The tree loses it's leaves,never it's root.

The grass turns brown and dies yet, the land is always covered by soil.

The permanent things lack colour, they might not be as exciting as the temporary   ones, yet they hold you even when the colour deserts you and the excitement betrays you.

The strange thing about permanent things is that they always cling on. 

At this point in your life, everyone is probably busy and has dynamic priorities.

Today you might steal the number one spot on their priority list tomorrow you might be at the bottom.

However, there will always be those few 'roots' in your life.

Those people who have been there in your darker days, will probably be there for the brighter ones.

And as for the ones who haven't, well! 

Consider them the leaves that fell out.

But can you blame the leaf for falling out? Can the tree be angry ? 

No! The tree has a greater fate! 

Let go! Don't hold on too tight. 

Don't complicate. Be happy and allow yourself to bloom because one day the tree and the leaf must seperate. 

The Higher Thought

One day , it hit her.

It shook her, it changed her.

She realised,how small she was,how trivial were her worries,how ordinary her thoughts.

She learnt of Game Changers! 

She learnt of their humility,their action and thought!

It made her question her desires.

She introspected, till it finally came to her.

Money, Fame and Companionship are trivial goals in life.

Aspirations should be to be humble,compassionate and dynamic!

Desires should be to meet new people,to acquire more knowledge and to be content.

It's easy to earn money, be famous and enjoy luxuries.

The real hard things in life don't come so easy.

Having discovered this path,she knew someday she will look back and smile.
