Choices and consequences

-

'I want to be free'

'I can't wait to be independent'

' I am tired of being tossed back and forth' 

' I need freedom'. 

These are probably words that you will find when you search our young hearts. Of course, we are old enough to make our decisions. Right?

But the question is : are we wise enough to make decisions that we won't regret eventually?


Most importantly, are we ready to bear the brunt that comes with daring the consequences?

    Freedom is like allowing us to spread our wings and fly without limits just as limitless as the sky is. Freedom is like allowing us to test new waters and swim as far as the depth of the ocean. 


 Freedom comes with a whole new level of excitement. But the truth is:

      During the flight, there would be times when strong winds would blow and your naivety might get the best out of you. You might have to rely on previous teachings (in this concept, words of our parents, teachers, mentor, role models) to navigate your way. The intensity of the wind might surpass your strength and you can find yourself on the ground back flat. The wind could be anything that tempts you to compromise or cheat on your morals. 



      Also, we might get drowned in the ocean of life as we test deep waters. Stormy moments that are capable of sweeping you off your beautifully planned journey could come.

       At every crossroad of making decisions, let us not be carried away by the fantasy of freedom.

The will to explore is inbuilt in our youthful beings. However, wisdom is profitable while making our decisions.


     We should always remember that the seeds of our present actions or choices will bear fruits of results or consequences in nearest future. Future could be the next minute, day, year. Choose your words, habits, friends etc wisely 

Hey Sweet, it's never too late to start making better and wise decisions now. Mistakes are meant to improve us and not to make us miserable.


     I'm bidding November farewell by making a resolution to make better decisions guided by God's wisdom ☺️. It's been an amazing month ❤️. Thank you dear sweet dreamers🏆🌹🥇 

See you in December ❤️

BIG WINS, SMALL WINS

  Tik tok, tik tok, tik tok.... The clock ticks and with every passing second, we take a step further to fulfilling those visions, goals and resolutions written in our diaries, notebooks, stick notes etc.    Just like me, I am sure the beginning of this year felt like being given a book with empty and clean pages. Another chance to rewrite our stories, erase unpleasant pasts, tear up pages of hurts, create beautiful memories, document  our wins, put together missing pieces, highlight strategies and ultimately, make God the author of the story. After all, we are nothing but pencils in the hands of our Creator.         Yeah, we never saw all we experienced from the beginning of the year to this moment coming. As myopic beings, we couldn't even predict what could happen the next moment. We live in FAITH; hoping for the evidence of things not seen and believing in better times that are yet to come.    Seconds became minutes, min...

 There is a thin line between strength and weakness; happiness and sadness; health and sickness; trust and betrayal; riches and poverty; life and death. Just like two sides of a coin, life has its 2 separate ends.As we live,we get to experience both the sweet and bitter side of life.  Writing this made me to remember how my energetic self that was assisting in a medical outreach team some days ago was groaning in pains and feeling sick days after. Irony of life right? Lol      Another relatable experience is how your favourite person or bestie could later become a stranger due to betrayal or life changing decisions.The deadly blow that keeps me in check often, is how a living being could become a lifeless body the next minute. Exhale 😤       Life is not a comedy however it presents funny experiences that leaves us with lessons to be learnt and indelible marks as souvenirs. As we live each day with so much vigour as young chaps, aspiring to be a...

Drifting away from consciousness: How to stay on track?

    Happy New Month, Sweet dreamers!! October is here and I am excited to make the best out of it. Every moment of our existence should count. So, I hope that writing this piece counts by warming your hearts and rejuvenating you back to reality.        Speaking of coming back to reality, have you ever drifted away subconsciously and then you become unaware of your environment such that it takes a jerk or alert from someone else to bring you back to reality. I had one of those moments recently which got me thinking of how many of us are gradually losing focus and drifting away from our identities, goals and visions.         Well, this is me trying to give a "wake -up call or jerk" to an unconscious giant reading this.  I know you started out with so much vigour and strength. You were really ready to show the world what you are made of. Then along the line, the distractions, discouraging voices, obstacles slowed down your moment...
