Its about Quality not Quantity

'Attachment' is a big deal in our lives. We grow attachment towards people, pets,sometimes places and things too. Attachments, bonds, the type of relationship we have help us to hold on to people. Usually as human beings we tend to make these bonds stronger over time and this may happen knowingly or unknowingly.

We usually experience pain,guilt,anger and sometimes we feel depressed when we can no longer hold on to any  relationship. The bond in any relationship grows as we give it more and more importance and attention. But not all relationships are meant to be for lifetime. Many instances in our lives would have taught us many life lessons and at times it hurts so much that we tend to keep ourselves away from these wonderful feelings such as attachments, bonds etc.

The amount of pain that we experience totally depends on the 'quality times' we have had being in that perticular relationship, its nothing but the memories we have made. Its just like a mathematical formula,that its all about quality and quantity. But some relationships are totally opposite that we don't even count it as relationships or the presence or absence of the person may not even make a difference to us.

Some instances leave a deep impact on us that we come to an understanding and we don't even try to change the way we think no matter what it takes. But we also have to understand that not all relationships are worth our pain and our time. We just have to make sure we only give importance to relationships that matters to the person at the other end too. Relationships,bonds,attachments are not about the quantity of time we give it,its about the quality time we give it. At the end all that matters is 'Quality' not 'Quantity' to stick on to any relationship and all those wonderful feelings.

This Chapter Is Called "For Myself"

     The past five years of my life have been the most intense. They have been filled with emotions, struggles, hardships, small wins, bigger losses, countless breakdowns, and many unfulfilled dreams. I have always looked forward to starting new in certain aspects of my life, wanting to leave all of these experiences behind. However, a small part of me wanted to hold on to the past years- especially when we typically let go of the bad parts of our past. I realized even the difficult memories should be a part of my story, something I experienced and lived through, they belonged to me. Today, I am glad I chose to hold on to every part of it, even the painful and bitter ones.  During those years, I somehow lost myself amidst all the struggles and forgot how to be ' me' . Little did I know, it would take a long time before I would recognize the stranger, 'me' . But embracing, forgiving, and accepting those past memories has allowed me to develop a newfound respect for my...

The Room of The Mind, The Two Selves and The Ghosts at The Table

 The room of my mind is never empty. It shifts with the seasons, sometimes warm, washed in gold, with open windows that let laughter wander in from the distant places. Other times, it is winter there. The curtains drawn, the air still, a silence that feels heavy enough to touch. I know every corner of this room, the desk where I write the thoughts I am too afraid to speak, the worn chair which remembers the weight of my tiredness, the shelves where I place pieces of the past I am not ready to let go. Somewhere in this room, two selves live together. One self remembers the years when love travelled across oceans. The way conversations could steady a restless night, the hours of laughter. She is soft-eyed, unguarded, certain that what was built over years could not be undone by a single season apart. The other stands by the door with her coat on. She remembers the night the truth arrived - uninvited, unyielding, and edged with shapes her mind had never dared to imagine. She knows the...

Procrastination, the trauma in disguise: A story we don't talk about enough

     We are programmed to think procrastination is just a bad habit, a sign of laziness, or simply the lack of motivation. But for many of us, it's something much deeper. Procrastination can be a cry from our nervous system - a hidden signal that we are overwhelmed, scared, afraid, or still healing from something we haven't even named yet. We are taught procrastination is about time management when it's about emotional survival.  Trauma doesn't always scream. Sometimes it whispers      Trauma doesn't always look like a dramatic event. Sometimes it's quiet and subtle. It just creeps in - through a betrayal, an overwhelming period of stress, or even a buildup of long-term emotion suppression or neglect. The mind and body can absorb the shock without us realizing how deeply it affects us. Without understanding this, we tend to punish ourselves for not functioning "normally". We tell ourselves that it's not a big deal, thus invalidating our pain. That...
