“You are!!!” – Dare to be yourself


“I’m Thanks to all those who said No To Me, It’s because of them I Did it Myself!!”



An Outlook Communicator Tag Line, which hit me hard, as if it was awakening my Senses back to life. So True and Real…. Indifference, Apathy, Rejections or failing relationships has almost left every human I know with an scar, faded but not fully washed out, yet. Dreams which sketched our Fairy Tale Future, brutally washed away with rains of Realism called “Life”…. Rudimentary as it may sound, but with Time, these very failures of Life, help us evolve, to who we are today. If not, for those, who said no to me, I would have never known that Life is much more than what meets the eye. I would have never learnt to WAIT for Good Things, nor would I have taught my Impulsive ever hastening Nerve to calm Down, for Time (in my world God), to Change Things…. Never Ever, I would have learnt to live life Myself, and see my family and friends around me as Lovable companions and NOT my Obligations to pace up to, gratify and Live for, as Society wretchedly terms it to be….


There is a Power in being yourself. Doing the right things you really want to do, saying and keeping the words spoken, taking time to be in silence to be drenched in the rain of Self-Awareness and most of all not giving into the roller-coaster ride of pleasing your loved ones – to expect their Love in return. How on earth, did we think we could earn any love by flattery? Is Love not based on Legs of Inspiration and intimate friendship? and that Pleasing or Flattering your loved ones, robs you of your confidence and makes you appear more boring to your Partner?? As my Old Friend puts it “It’s the very individualism in you that keeps you Happy and Peaceful, both in Relationships and as a Person”. The more you brim as the person you are, the real self, the more you will send out ripples of Inspirations to your social world. Something that I learnt from Landmark Forum, We are constantly draining our precious God Given life in trying to be who we are not. But, Can a Square become a Triangle or Triangle become a Rectangle? or Rectangle a Circle? Not just the Literally Shapes, but the nature of shredding one real Core Self, to impersonate another, shows up as Stress and as Aliments or Diseases at an later stage in life. It’s time we stop, take a pause and look inwards, just once. To listen to our Souls Cry be restore it. “Surely, He Restores my Soul,…”, as a Psalmist writes, but only if we are committed with a purpose to do so. After all, We are all united with one same destiny, to Die. Life is just one God Given Chance to “BE”. Take pride in who you are and Just be natural self. You will see the magic of how the very lost things of Life being restored, multifold, though God’s Time and Grace in you,…


I Have more to write,… Which I Hope to Sometime.
