Susan Cain-The Power Of Introverts

A brilliant talk about how our culture has become so exroverted that being an introvert is being viewed as awkward ,even anti-social in a way.Susan Cain makes great points on how this system should be changed by recognizing and appreciating the differences between extroverts and introverts.

Insanity=Overdose Of Poignant Emotions

I just noticed how we use the word 'insanity' so often .....but I think in a way we are actually abusing its real meaning while doing so because usually we seem to use it in a wrong way.So,what is the definition of Insanity? According to the dictionary,it is a mental illness or derangement.Dementia, lunacy, madness, craziness, mania, aberration.....as the synonyms go on.....However I dont agree completely with this statement.To me insanity is the overdose of poignant emotions and not knowing how to deal with these... Since we are all human and we all experience intense emotions such as pain,burden,happiness,excitement,love,jealousy,anger,hate,fear,even emptiness......then arent we all somewhat insane? The only line that divides us into being 'normal' or being 'insane' is the ability to be aware of,embrace and enshroud those powerfull feelings.Because being concious of what we are actually feeling behind those emotions leads to an understandment of ourselves,then this will lead to realising that 'fighting' them, 'ignoring',' denying' or simply giving into them wont help at all,what can help us is loving ourselves,accepting our emotions,accepting ourselves for who we are...accepting both good and bad.And finally not forgetting that we are not alone with these emotions that we cannot control,everybody goes through them at some point of their life...After all,we can only know what the light feels like when we have felt the dark.

New years Resolutions

To be honest I usually suck at following my new years resolutions..But this year going to base them on the lessons that Ive learned from last year and I'm determined to stick with them,because I know the biggest obstacle that stands between  us and our dreams is actually ourselves...
Anyway so here it goes....:)

1. Stop thinking about what happened in the past and  about what will happen in the future.The past has guided me to where I am today.its a series of shadows of experiences and those experiences will always be behind my back,supporting me.It doesnt really matter if they are good or bad experiences,because from the bad ones I have learned to appreciate the light and from the good ones Ive learned that no tunnel lasts forever,theres always light at the end which we will see when we truly accept the darkness.If I stay in the past worrying about the seconds that Ive lost ,I'm losing the seconds ticking away right now...As for the future,it will shape from the actions that Im doing now.

     2. Remember that nothing really ends,the end of something is the start of something else.

    3. Being lost in the details will eventually make us forget what the real issue was...So see what the   general picture is telling you.

    4.Without pain...comes no true happiness.Value both.

    5.Nobodys lonely because even if theres no one near you that understands,there are many people out there that feel the same way as you and they do understand....

   6.Don't question whether the glass is half full or half empty question whats filling it
  
   7.You will have a better understanding of the world around you when you've begun to understand yourself

   8. And finally here's a quote by Don Williams Jr,"The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination" :)

What are your new years resolutions based on the lessons that you've learned throughout last year?

With my best wishes of health ,love ,peace,success and happiness have a great year everyone! :D

Hello,Can You Hear Me???

Recently i've been thinking about how many of us actually feel alone because of the lack of communication within our society.Yes,we have mobile phones,facebook,twitter etc... and we can reach eachother within seconds...But if thats the case then why do we still feel lonely? How come we feel isolated when we are surrounded by people?

I think we all just need two ears that will truely listen to us,two set of eyes that will actually look at us with an understanding manner.Unfortunately everybody seems to be too lost at the reflection given to us by life,that we arent able to see behind that thick curtain of stress,money,social status,success,beauty....????? And what lies beneath is actually the ability to speak empathy.....along with it compassion,benevolence and clemency!!!!

Mistakes.....????

Making a 'mistake',an action most of us are afraid of...A term we try to avoid.But if we were all flawless,how interesting will our lives be?,would there be a word called 'flawless'?,would we even be human????
The truth is since we are all human and not emotionless robots,then we are bound to make mistakes,we are expected to experience pain ,therefore we learn the right way by making mistakes and since we know what pain feels like,we also get to know what true 'happiness' is.After all we even learned how to stand on our own feet by falling...getting up...falling again...then finally one day we can stand still without falling down again,what made us successful?..we NEVER GAVE UP! The worst mistake is being so scared to make one that we dont try.What should we do when we make a mistake?...give up completely?,cover it up?,start a new page?....no,we should cross it out and write the right answer instead.That way we will finally learn the right way appreciating the path to the wrong way......
