Touching the Sky with Starla

Interviewee: @Starla27

Interviewer: @Fristo

What makes a person beautiful?

Starla: Every person is beautiful in their own way, and what makes them beautiful, more like what makes them unique or special or different from one another is how they enhance their good factors, expressing their inner self out, let it be their inner child itself. Each of us holds something good, it could be our thoughts, talents or our actions, etc, it could be anything. When we see something raw, pure, good and unique, we admire its beauty.

What kind of life path is worth walking on?

Starla: A path which we believe might be the best for us. Sometimes the path we choose might not be the best and comes with lots of struggles or even regrets but as long as we are choosing that path for ourselves and not under anyone’s pressure. We learn from our decisions and mistakes. A path is worth walking on as long as you are aware of your actions, consequences and importantly you’re not going to lose yourself in the process. I believe it’s better to attempt and lose than to have never attempted at all.

Why is life so difficult for so many and at so many times?

Starla: Life surely is challenging, no doubt about that. Life is really fascinating and often we all come to a phase where we try to figure it’s purpose and our responsibility towards it. Life teaches us so many things, in various aspects. And most of the lessons we learn are from our hardships, failures and mistakes. Life gives and teaches us a balance of all, it gives us happiness but also gives us sorrow. So that nothing is too much and nothing is too less, just in the right proportion.

What is something healthy Starla does (or can do) daily?

Starla: I tend to journal my thoughts, acknowledge myself, go for a walk to clear my mind, and spend time socializing or connecting with my friends and family. Most importantly accept my mistakes and forgive myself for them.

What are some of the big don’ts of Starla’s life (the things that Starla should be careful not to do)?

Starla: I have many don’ts, haha and I’m still open to learning more in the future days. A few of my don’ts would be misjudging myself, neglecting my health in all aspects of physical, mental and emotional wellbeings, letting myself get walked over on, not taking a stand for myself and letting my past harm my present which is destroying my future.

What’s the best gift one can give to another?

Starla: By accepting them as a whole with their perfections and flaws. Treating them with respect, honesty and kindness. Acknowledging and appreciating them. That’s one of the best gifts you can give to someone!
