Your peace in times of chaos

Gautam Buddha once said ' You yourself, as much as any one else in the entire universe, deserves your love and affection." Your peace is your own to make and preserve! Its your prime responsibility to yourself. You cant let extraneous happenings fill your ears and heart. Care for the words of your closest and no one else. Let toxic people not be a part of your circle. In this fake world where people show fake lives on social media stick to your closest, i dont say dont be an extrovert but you gotta be ruthless in maintaining who you call your own. Dont be swayed by others opinions. Hold your own, care least of what others think and say. Your competition to be better should be with yourself, do not seek external validation. You are your own beacon.Your belief in yourself should be primary and non negotiable. Others words dont mean a thing except if it comes from the closest of the close. Your belief in yourself often ensures whether you fulfil your dreams or not. I have learnt to value opinion and guidance of my parents, husband, daughter and closest friend Foram. They are my heroes who know who i am and their belief in me and mine in them is unshakeable. And their love n faith in me makes me who i am. As Geet says in the movie 'Jab We Met', "Main apni favourite hun", so be your favourite and dont let anyone change that belief in yourself. Hold your peace. Our time in this world is so less, lets make the most of it.
