Stuff I have learned in this short life so far~

 Don't have expectations. Take life as it comes.

Be kind. Gratitude is the only thing that guarantees happiness.

Don't hate. Don't give that kind of negativity a home in you.

You can strive for your goals while enjoying the journey. In today's busy modern world, it's very easy to get into the 'hustle' mentality, it's very easy to get into the "If I'm not working I'm wasting time."mentality. Not. True.

Beauty standards are literally the most shallow and temporary thing ever. In the west, people get surgery for squarer jawlines, in the east, for rounder. Don't judge yourself by them.

Forgive, but don't forget.

You cannot make everybody happy.

That's it. Like I said, it's a short life I have had. I'm really sorry for the late post, I'm already running out of ideas to write about. Feel free to give your suggestions in the comments~

    Good going Saumya. A bunch of very helpful lessons trully. Pleasure to read :)

    Just the one on "forgive, but don't forget" - well, in some situations, one needs to forget too, I would say :). I think one learns that by experience only.

Pets

 I think almost everyone has had pets in their entire life at least once. It is 2012, I am six years old. We saw a lone parrot outside near our house, looking nervous and afraid. We were afraid a cat may attack him, since there was an abundance of them in the area we lived in. Naturally, we decided to adopt him. He was fully grown, and it was obvious that someone else had previously owned him, since he frequently said "roti de do" meaning " give me roti." We bought a cage that was big enough for him, and even let him out once in a while. We called him Mithhu Miya. He used to start squaking at around 9 am in the morning, much to our annoyance. He later passed away.  It is 2017. An elderly lady we know just called my mother requesting us to adopt two bunnies. We did some research about them, and decided to adopt them too. She told us that they were female. Uh, well, turns out, one of them was a male. The female, named Innie, later gave birth to five bunnies. There was...

Slam Book

 6-year-old me enters a book shop, mesmerised. Surrounded by book shelves filled with the things I love, I quickly ran up to one that interested me. It said Slam Book at the top, whatever that meant. It was filled with different questions. How interesting! You could answer the whole book filled with different questions on every page, and it could be like an encyclopaedia about you! Or so my self centered brain thought. Turns out, it's just the same questions repeated again and again, and  other  people are supposed to fill it, like your classmates when you're leaving school so that you can look back on the MeMoRIeS later on. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined. Four years pass. I get an idea. Why not fill a slam book, but you answer the questions intended for each person yourself, with a regular gap in time between them, so that you can see how you change over time? Like a diary for lazy people. I followed through. Wrote every month. But only two time...

..Oops

 Sorry for not posting for so long. Still have no idea what I'm going to post..so here's a short update of my life. There is a beautiful  Sahajayoga qawwali video coming up, Diwali was epic as usual, new BTS album, and related zoom party with a fan friend is coming up, Enola Holmes is a freaking amazing movie,(They made Sherlock likeable?) and my plans to study during the Diwali holidays were sabotaged by the common cold. Not  the other virus, btw. Also, Isabella is getting naughtier day by day? What did I ever do to her? Did she really had to take after her mother, and not the more well behaved Fluffy? Cutie is going out more these days..guess that's compensation for the couch potato (blanket potato?) phase she had earlier.. This turned into a more ramble of my thoughts rather than an update of my life, but I guess that's more entertaining.. In the end, of this blog post which I guess suddenly turned into a speech? I would like to say that if you're going outside, ...
