Turning the Calendar, Turning the Page of Life!

 


As the new year approaches the first thing we do is, turn the calendar, and this invites us to reflect on the chapters we have written and the moments that have defined us. 

It’s the time to release what no longer serves us and to embrace the promise of new fresh start.

Letting go is an art that requires courage and self-realization. It is a process that requires us to release our grip on the familiar, surrendering control and making room for the unknown. In exploring the art of letting go, we delve into the profound truth that some things are beyond our control.

We humans are creatures of habit, and one of our most ingrained tendencies is to hold on tightly to what we know. Whether it be relationships, memories, or cherished moments, we find comfort in the familiar. However, it is essential to recognize that not everything is within our circle of control. Our habitual grasp can inadvertently become a source of unnecessary pain and constraint.

Letting go takes a lot of work. Whether it's parting ways with a person who once held a significant place in our lives or bidding farewell to cherished memories, the process can be emotionally exhausting. It requires a willingness to confront discomfort and a readiness to release.

A crucial aspect of letting go is understanding our circle of control. Some things are beyond our influence, and acknowledging this fact is the first step toward this journey. If an element lies outside our sphere of control, it demands the freedom to drift away from our minds as well.

As we navigate the path of letting go, it is crucial to carry hope in our hearts. Understanding that by releasing the old, we make room for the new can be a guiding light in moments of darkness. This hope becomes a catalyst for resilience and an affirmation that something better awaits us on the horizon.

We all have the tendency to tightly clasp our hands, but believe me, opening that grip and letting go will bring you a sense of relief.

Finding Myself in the Heart of Himachal

There’s something about the slow mornings in the mountains that forces you to pause, breathe, and listen—to yourself, to nature, and to the silence in between. Waking up to the golden sun rays filtering through the wooden window of my homestay, I felt warmth against my skin, yet a deep cold within. The crisp mountain air carried with it the scent of pine and damp earth, wrapping around me like an old, familiar embrace. I stared outside, where clouds collapsed gently into the snow-capped peaks, blending white into green, as if nature itself was undecided yet at peace with it. For the first time in a long while, I wasn’t rushing. There was no urgency, no notifications demanding my attention, no expectations pulling me in different directions. Just me and the view—a breathtaking panorama of life untouched by chaos. I sipped on my warm tea, my fingers barely holding onto its heat, and for a brief moment, I wished my heart could be the same—numb, untouched by emotions that no longer served ...

Still Figuring It Out? It's Ok!

    In your 20s, it’s common to have a lot of plans and dreams for the future. As kids, many of us imagined to be a doctor, an astronaut or an engineer but in real we have landed up in something different. As we grow, our goals naturally evolve. Remember those times you thought you'd have everything figured out by 25? Maybe you have settled in a career, a partner, or a specific lifestyle. Yet here you are, possibly still navigating the twists and turns of adulthood. That’s perfectly ok! As we get old, our priorities shift. A bike that once seemed like the ultimate goal might now feel small compared to owning a car. Relationships, career paths, and dreams can all change too. Some years back you might be thinking about to get married to someone you love by the year of 25. But now your paths are different. Just because your friend owns a car or is getting married at the same age doesn’t mean you have to rush into those things too. What was once a timeline now becomes a jour...

Stop Holding the Rope

Sometimes, a time comes when you need to reassess your life decisions. One of the hardest truths to accept is realizing that you might be the only one fighting to keep a relationship alive. But the reality is a relationship is meant to be two-sided. It’s a partnership, not a solo journey. If you find yourself constantly making sacrifices, putting in effort, and waiting for things to change while the other person remains distant or indifferent, it’s time to pause and reflect. Ask yourself: Is this relationship giving me mental peace? Do I feel secure, valued, and loved? Or am I just holding on to the idea of what it could be? Think of it like a tug of war. The more you pull, the more tension and pain you feel. But the moment you let go, the rope drops, and the pressure releases. That relief - that’s what letting go can feel like. It’s not about giving up; it’s about ending the struggle that’s hurting you. It’s important to remember that love shouldn’t feel like a battle you fight alone....
