The Life You Are Seeking Is All Your Way!

by resilience2025

...See more Heyyaaa You Hopeful People! 💗 I hope you all are keeping well! Well, this post is a part of the series on the theme I started a week or two ago on Embracing Change The last few days had been really stressful for me! I experienced a bad burnout! Had been feeling nothing inside me! It happens right? We all know that something or the other is not right with us! But how to get it right is something that doesn't reach us! I felt directionless as if I lost my purpose! Had been sleeping for hours! And let's not exaggerate that more 😂🥰 But then my story brought me a vibing, positive and amazing climax! And I thought why not share it out with my pretty family on 7 cups! The situations I talk about are quite normal so what's so different? I understand your butterfly 🦋 like queries! But I tell, everything that caused this was a chaotic emotional upheaval that took a toll on me! If you ask me, what lesson did this leave me with in a one liner! I would say! Today, I realise, Life is the most beautiful blessing on us! Life is all about embracing everything that comes our way! Life is a lifelong learning itself! Life is more than we think it is! I read it in the amazing book The 5 AM Club by Robin Sharma! "Nothing is wrong at this moment even if it feels like everything's falling apart. If you feel your life's a mess right now, it's simply because your fears are just a little stronger than your faith ❤️ 💪" Yes, I know when the pain strikes you, it hits you bad at your heart, your mind and soul gets shaken, your head pains, you feel frustrated and lost, you feel like badly crying out! But I tell you, Bad times don't stay long as simply as Good times don't! And why do we categorise "Bad and Good" as two polar opposites! Aren't they equally important for a grateful and humane existence? Aren't our listeners on 7 cups here because their bad times transformed them to be kind and considerate towards the concerns of the world out there! I really thank them for what they do for us! 🥺❤️🫂 Bad and Good is complementary in nature! If we don't have the bad, we will never ever realise the joy and beauty of the good! 😊 So how do we go about navigating the tough phases in our life! Reminding ourselves something! I use the analogy of Cricket, "Life is not always about hitting the ball, sometimes life hits to check your patience" When the toughest phases of life strike you, be self compassionate, tell yourself that Growth is never linear and setbacks are a part of the progress! (Heard it in a podcast) Self compassion will make you more resilient! Even if you feel negative, try to replace it with a different thought pattern! Like the CBT Therapy shared by one of our listeners on 7 cups. Remember lessons sync gradually! Be patient in the process! And take action towards your healing and clarity as soon as your mindset improves! (We will discuss this later in detail) I tell you, faith in the process is highly important in life! Knowing and repeatedly telling yourself that "Everything is happening for a good reason!" Remember when we were children? We used to fall down but rise back up again only to find that we as children never lost heart and courage! There was no embarassment! No fears! What we did have was high degree resilience and maturity to know that I will keep trying no matter whatever comes my way! 💕 So why did we lose our immature maturity when we became adults? Ending it here and more on the way! I will conclude with the most beautiful quote I ever heard of! Embarassment is the cost of entry. If you are not willing to look like a foolish beginner, you will never become a graceful master! Grace is growth! And human nature resists it! So the choice is always yours! What do you want to chose? Regards, Resilience

Good moments 🌈

by exuberantBlackberry9105

20 hours ago

...See more hey everyone, i'm creating this space for myself to come to every day, hopefully, and share my good moments. ✨ when i say 'good moment', it doesn't mean i have to feel happy or anything. it could be anything that made me feel a tiny bit better or something that made me feel good for a little bit. it could even be something that happened that's supposed to be good, even if it didn't change how i feel. or if i'm having a particularly bad day, a good moment could be a moment when i just didn't feel that horrific. and of course, it could be a moment when i just somehow magically feel fine for a bit, with no apparent cause. magic, lol. 🪄 i've recently realised that thinking of good moments makes every day feel a tiny bit different, instead of every day feeling the same and having that school, homework, exam, eat, sleep, repeat cycle going on. when i'm depressed and have been for months on end, it's really easy to just see that and forget the good that does occasionally come. perhaps after a while of posting on this thread, i might even be able to go back and read previous good moments when i'm feeling awful. i know that every time i try to feel better and actually get to feeling better, it eventually comes crashing down soon and i feel bad again. but i guess i'll try to feel better anyway by focusing on the good moments. and when i do get to feeling better, i want to make the best of it and use it to get work done, so that the times when it gets bad again don't affect my schoolwork too much. i will really try to come here every day and post something, even if it's very small and seems insignificant, even if i feel like i didn't have anything good happen that day. and if i ever have a miracle day when i have a lot of good moments, i'll try my best to list them all out for me to read on the awful days that follow (somehow my really good days are always followed by some really bad ones, and it sucks). if i ever miss a day of posting, i will try to post that day's good moments the next day. i know that sometimes i will need to mention the bad stuff too here, to be able to explain why something was a good moment, but in general, i will try my best to avoid talking too much about the bad on this thread. thank you, @bestVase7265, for encouraging me to write down my good moments. this idea of yours has been of a lot of help to me. i hope it works well with this thread for posting good moments. feel free to follow along and read whatever good i find every day, and share yours too (only if you'd like to, of course. you can always just stick to our space if you wish). 🤍🤍 anyone else reading this is welcome to share their good moments as well, i'd love to hear them. wishing you all the best. 💙
