Honesty ~ a virtue, an important one.

Honesty means always being truthful. 
Even when the truth hurts; remember the longer it is confined within you the stronger it becomes. And when it eventually comes out i(always will) it'll hurt so so so much more.

No one and I mean no one gets away with lying. Even if another doesn't find out that you are lying, you will always know and that guilt inside will devour you slowly. It creates confusion and distrust. Lying doesn't help you, instead it takes you down under. 
So remember; Even though, being honest is hard, the truth often hurts, it brings freedom and content in such levels that it is worth trying.  It removes  the fear from the heart and makes a person courageous and confident. Honesty brings a spark of hope in this dark world.
"When the truth is told, it takes all the weight with it, but the weight never leaves the person who doesn't speak it." ~Annanya Desai

    Honesty is definitely a virtue and best policy in life. If you have a reputation for being honest, people have faith and trust in your word and you are Mr. Dependable for them. There is a saying in Sindhi, the literal/liberal translation of which is "The boat of honesty sways but never sinks". It is a known fact that when you lie, you have to tell many more lies to cover it up". Nevertheless, they say excess of anything including kindness, goodness, truthfulness, etc. is bad. You should always do it with moderation and due diligence so that people do not take undue advantage and take you for granted. Where you feel, your innocent lie is going to make someone happy, go ahead and lie. Where you feel your honesty will result in misery and grief to the other party, you may take recourse to lying.

    Truth even if unpleasant or inconvenient, commands long term respect and inspires confidence.
    Honesty is not just the best policy, but rather the most stable and stress-free policy...
    It is also infectious and builds a cleaner, safer and happier society..

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.
