So yesterday, a friend of mine told me that she got back to blogging after a long gap of 5 years! That is when it flashed to me, that I hadn't updated my blog since a year! :D
I came back to my blog and started reading my previous posts and was self-motivated to start up blogging again!
So in the last one plus year, a lot of things have happened ( I have luckily made a note of almost everything in my journal ) some very pleasant one's and some very unpleasant ones!
I think I will first talk about the unpleasant one's in this post and all the super awesome moments in another post! :)
I will start with the unpleasant one's and finish it up soon!
Towards the end of October 2013, I lost a very far cousin of mine. She was just 31 and died after delivering her baby! The baby survived for 2 days after her death and then left this world. It was the unfairest of things that could ever happen to anyone! She already had a 7 year old daughter. This incident, kind of shook me up! It came like a lightening right into my heart! Days went by and things began to look normal,yet again.
Another incident that I am going to share is also about a very close family friend, more like a dear brother , who lost his life in a tragic train accident on Dec 28th 2013. It was a fire accident and his body was brought down to Bangalore with great difficulty as the bodies were completely burnt and chances of identifying the same was very very less.
He was blessed with two little kids of 6 and 3, a loving wife , and old parents! I personally had never faced a situation as bad/helpless as this before ( I hope not to in the future as well. *fingers crossed* )
He was only 32. Just not the age to go away. Forever.
He was someone whom I always enjoyed spending time with! He always bought me an ice-cream no matter how late in the night it was! Anyway, if I start going back, I can probably never stop. It hurts. Even today. And forever.
So, what I was trying to convey from these two tragic incidents were, that, life is very very short. Sometimes, very unfair too. We have to live our lives on daily basis. I mean, Live. Not to just exist! Time is running and how we utilize every moment of this life is the biggest challenge!
I learned a lot from these two incidents..
I decided not to --
Postpone happiness
We often take our lives for granted. We are busy planning for tomorrow and meanwhile miss out on today's happiness.
Live.Laugh.Love. while you are still alive!
You never know when is your last moment. Nobody knows it either. So why take life so seriously? Keep it simple, silly!
Complain
I decided, I must never complain about anything in life.
I decided to be happy with everything that I was blessed with. I am ever grateful for every little thing I am blessed with. I realized...life is very beautiful when your wants are very less.
Waste time with people who don't value it
Yes. Its the most important thing in life. Never waste your precious time with people who don't value it. Its a complete waste of time. So, surround yourself with only those who truly love you.
So, I think I will conclude by saying, life is beautiful , but very short. So, its always better to be happy and make others happy!
We can live with a motto to spread love, happiness and peace everywhere that we go! Its a beautiful feeling, you know!
I have promised myself, that I would blog more often from now! :)
Much Love,
K

And, from the same tragic incidents, I decided, I must do more of these -
- Smile more often
- To be happy no matter how bad life is at that point in time.
- Do all the things which gives you peace of mind and happiness.
- Worry less about anything that is not in our control and to be very grateful for this life.
So, I think I will conclude by saying, life is beautiful , but very short. So, its always better to be happy and make others happy!
