When our mind speaks 🧡

A FATHER AND HIS DAUGHTER❗️

Moral Story Of The Day.

A father sent his little daughter to spend the holidays with family members. When the girl returned home, he asked her. 

"So tell me honestly, did you enjoy your holidays?"

She responded.
"Everyone was nice to me apart from Aunty Nancy. She seems too harsh and I have a feeling that she hates me" 

He asked.
"Why? What makes you think so?" 

The little girl replied.  
"Firstly, she doesn't respond to my greetings no matter how many times I greet her. Secondly, there was a day I helped her find her missing watch but she didn't even say 'thank you'. And thirdly, she never interacted with me like others did, and has never spoken to me before. She's so unbelievable" 

The father remarked.
"Really? So, what is her reaction when you greet her?" 

The girl uttered.
"She would pretend not to notice me"

The father paused for a moment and said. 

"I think you're right. Nancy is truly a bad Aunty, and I think she really hates you. So, henceforth, you would try as much as possible to avoid her" 

Just then, the father let out a chuckle that surprised her. He touched her arm, and with a smile on his face, he said. 

"That was the voice of your mind speaking. Your mind has cooked up all negative stories about your Aunty, making it difficult to realize that she is deaf and dumb. Aunty Nancy is unable to hear or speak, so all your assumptions about her are wrong. That's how our minds are. The mind can be a very convincing liar. It simply makes up stuffs. With little or no evidence, it creates negative stories about the world and ourselves. So you shouldn't believe everything you think. And most importantly, if you can win over your mind forever, you can achieve anything in your life".

I want to reveal a big secret today. We have seen charcoal one way or the other and we might have used it to do many things. Charcoal is commonly known to be used for cooking. What if I tell you that charcoal has a lot of benefits! When you don't know the benefits of something, you won't know that you can use it for many things.

Bakit Sya?

"Bakit siya?" "Kasi alam niya yung ingay kung bakit ako tahimik". Matagpuan mo rin sana ang taong handa kang makabisa sa sandaling hindi ka naiintindihan ng iba. Alam kung paano ka mapakalma at sanay kang pasanin kapag hindi mo na kaya.  Dahil madaling makakita ng taong kaya kang sabihan nang paulit-ulit ng 'mahal kita' Ngunit ang makatagpo ng taong kabisado at uunawa sa iyo talaga— mahirap nang makakilala.

Stay

I hope you find the courage to step away from the things that aren't good for you.  I hope you find the strength to let go of the person who feels like "the one" but doesn't work out for you, all along. I hope you find the will to throw away all your what-ifs from the open doors that could lead you to a wrong path. I hope you find peace in accepting that "just because it's beautiful, doesn't mean it's meant for you."  And in the end, I hope you still believe that your heart, your feet, and your dreams will eventually find a place where they truly belong.

My Inner Self 🩷

The truth is that people believe they know you, that you're okay or that you're in a position where you're proud of yourself and optimistic about how things are going for you.  They believe you're fine because they interpret things based on their perception and connect certain facts they believe they are comfortable with to paint a picture of you based on their vision, unaware that this is all an illusion. Because you are aware of how exhausted you are from having so many thoughts racing through your head, you are weary of showing empathy, you are tired of being the one who understands, and you are tired of the weight you are carrying inside your chest so you only divert on particular things in order to survive.  And if you make just one error, all the good things you accomplished in the past is lost forever.  Let people misunderstood you Allow people to perceive you negatively and incorrectly.  You're living this life to be authentic and not to develop into a perso...
