Forgive and Be Free

'Not forgiving is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die'
Before I explain this line, first we would need to know the meaning of forgiveness. 
Forgiveness means different things to different people. Generally, however, it involves a decision to let go of resentment and thoughts of revenge.
Now, Forgiveness is for our own growth and happiness. When we hold pain and anger, it harms us much more than it harms the offender. Forgiveness frees both the forgiven and the forgiver it is thus, a rational form of self love. Not forgiving fills you with hatred and clouds your judgement to trust people can be trusted. Much of our pain comes from not giving the injuries inside us. Work on your anger and decide to forgive.

 It's human nature to hold onto our anger after being hurt but holding on to to your anger doesn't hurt the other person it it hurts you. 
So decide to forgive and give up the suffering of the past and forge ahead with newly earned love, devotion, determination, hope and joy. Forgiveness doesn't get another to change his/her words, actions of behaviour instead, it changes your life your life by bringing peace and happiness.


"You have to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you got and remember what you had. Always forgive but never forget, learn from your mistakes but never regret. People change, things go wrong, but just remember life goes on"

    Superb post. I entirely agree with you that when we harbour anger against anyone we only hurt ourselves. The concerned person is not at all affected by the said anger. I would go a step further for the sake of perfect happiness 😊 and bliss and adopt the mantra "Forgive and forget" If someone irritates you or is bent upon hurting you intentionally, the correct approach according to me would be to shake hands with him and part as friend bearing no rancor against him. This attitude will surely bring you happiness and joy in life

Unity...It starts with YOU!

"Unity... it starts with YOU, ends with WE and brings SUCCESS."  ~Annanya Desai    If we all remain united, we will not be defeated. Even when everyone on planet Earth is going through difficult times, it makes the situation look much better when we realize that we are all going through it.... together, to realize that everyone understands and is there for you. We all know the story of a farmer and his quarrelling sons. The sons could each easily break a single stick, but when several were made into a bunch neither of them could break it. The sons then recognised the value of unity and gave up their quarells. We understand from this that peace and success come from from overcoming our differences. If together we are unable to do so we will all 'fall', only to learn our lesson and get back up together. Unity is strength...and if we all no matter our race, gender, ethnicity, etc.. come together and work towards a common purpose we are more likely to succeed. During thes...

Dance and how it moulds me.

Image
 I have been dancing since I was only 3 years old, me now being 11 have been dancing all my life.  Ever since I started going to my dance class, I feel like I find myself and connect with me through dance. It is my safe place, whenever I am sad, frustrated, mad or even happy I go dance. Dancing helps me feel better, it helps me be better. Whenever I dance I feel like i know who i am, i feel like I am not lost anymore, I feel like I am at home. Dancing makes me smile during the darkest days and let's me enjoy the days when the sun is up and bright. I do ballet, but am very fond of other dance styles, like hip hop, contemporary and many more.   Recently I went to a national dance competition, where me and my fellow dancers won the first and second place. I know I will get more opportunities and I am forever ready to take them on.
