💫Making Yourself a Priority💫 - by Anupama ojha

💫""MAKING YOURSELF A PRIORITY""💫

Making Yourself a Priority is important. It's okay if your heart has changed a bit along with the plans you thought were something written in concrete to turn to stone. It's okay if you're suddenly realizing, this thing, this person, this opportunity isn't the one for me anymore. It's okay if you feel like you might let someone down or disappoint them in the next choice you make because now it's gotta be one for you. Plans change, hearts stop beating for certain things then get captivated by something or someone else. And trying to navigate and understand the confusion and complexity of your feelings sometimes force you to stay in places you've outgrown.

We stay in places not meant for us anymore because it's familiar or we stay fearing letting someone down and hurting them. But we only end up hurt ourselves in the process of trying to please everyone.

When you outgrown something or someone even that security isn't enough for you to be confident standing somewhere you know you shouldn't be. You feel it in every inch of your bone. At first it's a quiet whisper that soon turns into a roar that later turns into a scream saying, "I NEED TO LEAVE."

Be proud of yourself for making yourself a priority. Be proud of yourself for taking control of your life in a way you're demanding change. Even if that change can be a little scary and unknown. There is chaos, confusion, sadness, frustration, stress to figuring out what is right for you. But once you get a hint of what that might be and where you can go, if you find the courage within yourself to leave, there's happiness, being content, fulfillment, a weight lifted off your shoulder you forgot you were even carrying on the other side.

It's difficult to leave until you actually do then you realize that pit in your stomach, that aching for more, that need for something, anything different were all signs that leaving was essential. And once you do you'll realize leaving should have been the easiest choice. And that choice might not be understood by others and might be questioned. But the choices you make that directly influence your life, your happiness and wellbeing comes before anyone else's opinions or judgment.

🕊 No one feels like you! By - Anupama Ojha

🕊 No one feels like you! 🕊 When it comes to conversations, I've never been fond of clichés. One of the most repeated of those has been  “ The lore of the journey being more beautiful than the destination .”  bullshit!  My life's journey has never been beautiful, and you know it.  We met when I was a bitter, battered, bewildered soul. Angry at the world, angry at myself. However you saw past all that, didn't you? You figured I was not just angry. I was scared. scared of the world, of the way my heart had been broken, frightened at how I had been abandoned. And you sheltered me. With your jokes, your laughs, your kindness. When I shied away from everyone else, imagining myself to be a misfit, you broke the ice of conversations and of my heart. You made me return to my first love, of books and poetry. Your perfect crimson suit and affection was a catalyst, a reason for me to start wearing a saree again. You didn't make me feel crazy for writing letters, you wrote back...

🫰 This generation's love story🤞 : by - Anupama ojha

🫰 This generation's love story🤞 Tragically We live in a world where love is left to wait at the last table of a coffee shop where only casual connections and relationships are in demand where people come and willingly serve themselves with the same heartbreak and pain because it's 'casual and 'cool'. Emotions and feelings lie in the corner, unnoticed, neglected and laughed at, because old-school romance is probably not trendy in this shallow and superficial world, we've assembled for ourselves.  It's miserable and sad, isn't it? That we find it easier to disappear rather than face what's in front of us. We use words like "break" and "space" anticipating that everything would just magically work out after that time, and even if it doesn't, it's fine because that's how our era defines love. Nowadays, Love is not about staying and facing difficulties together for them. It's about finding a new face every time they g...

It will all be worth it. 🤍🌃 By _ Anupama ojha

🤍🌃 IT WILL ALL BE WORTH IT 🌃🤍 Hello there everyone, it's been a long time since I've written something.. and today idk from where I got this courage to write again, you know, I used to think "Tell them you love them" is the worst advice ever. But I've to come to realise that it's not true. The worst advice is to tell someone "pack your bags and leave". Clearly this person has no clue about starting all over. It seems fancy in the movies and books - you get a house by the beach, look over the sunset and reflect on everything, and despise the ones who made your life hell. The truth isn't even close. If you are desi, your first struggle will be finding a place, And a landlord who won't be a money-hungry a-hole and biased towards bachelors.  Good luck finding that. And when you have compromised and settled for less, Moving in will be the next step.  You will have to get a gas connection so you can survive on maggi.  You will also need to cal...
