ਡਰ

ਮੈਨੂੰ ਡਰ ਲੱਗਦਾ ਹੈ,
ਉਸਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਵਾਰ ਦੀ ਨਾਂ ਤੋਂ,
ਉਸਦੇ ਅਸਥਿਰ ਖ਼ਿਆਲਾਂ ਤੋਂ,
ਜੋ ਭੱਜਦੇ ਨੇ ਹਰ ਰੋਜ਼ ਇੱਕ ਨਵੀਂ ਦਿਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ|
ਤੇ ਮੈੰ, ਮੈੰ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਰਹਿ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹਾਂ, ਬਹੁਤ ਪਿੱਛੇ|
ਫਿਰ ਸੋਚਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਫੜ੍ਹ ਕਿ ਤਾਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਰੱਖ ਸਕਦੀ,
ਜਿਸਨੇ ਵਾਪਿਸ ਆਉਣਾ ਹੈ, ਆਪੇ ਆਵੇਗਾ|
ਪਰ ਫਿਰ ਡਰ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹਾਂ,
ਜੇ ਵਾਪਿਸ ਨਹੀਂ ਆਇਆ ਤੇ?
ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਤਿਆਰ ਹਾਂ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਹਾਲਾਤਾਂ ਲਈ?
ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਅੱਗੇ ਵੱਧ ਪਾ ਰਹੀ ਹਾਂ? - ਸ਼ਾਇਦ ਨਹੀਂ|
ਸ਼ਾਇਦ ਮੇਰੀ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਦਾ ਇਹੀ ਲੇਖ ਹੈ,
ਇਸ ਸਥਿਤੀ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਗੁਜ਼ਰਨਾ|
ਪਰ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਵੀ ਪਤਾ ਹੈ,
ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਇੱਕ ਵਾਰੀ ਅੱਗੇ ਵੱਧ ਗਈ,
ਤਾਂ ਵਾਪਿਸ ਨਹੀਂ ਆ ਪਾਵਾਂਗੀ, ਕਦੇ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ|

I won't quit "working"

Do you really think that one works just to earn money?

I work because that gives me challenges along with the strength to deal with them and find the solutions.  If not a solution, I atleast get a lesson. In the course of action, I deal with many minds around. Consciously or sub- consciously, I deal with their thought process and their way of carrying things out. 

I feel alive when I thrive myself to find and implement solutions to the problems that I face. It makes me feel as if I was able to bring a tiny difference which in turn makes me feel alive, fulfilled and valued in my own eyes.

So, when I say that I won't stop working, Is that too much to ask for? I understand you might not need my salary but then Sorry Boss!.. How is your Lakhs or Crores helping me find my own sense of achievement? I am a free soul inside, Don't try to trap me, else I will be suffocated. Not even your money will be able to help me in that case. 

Please understand that not every girl dreams of a rich guy or an easy life. I,  infact, want to be a part of every struggle that you do to make a living. I will feel proud to contribute as much as I could in that. Don't take that happiness, that sense of satisfaction away from me.

If you accept my aspirations along with me, I will devote myself to you.

        And that's a promise.

Yours truly
A struggling girl

A Heart that over-feels❣️

"Dil se nhi Dimaag se socha karo" - Has anyone ever said this to you?

If the answer is Yes, then this post is for you, and for all the people, who chose to listen to their heart, their gut and feelings, rather than calculating every thing prior to engagement.

You are awesome! You are simply awesome the way you function. You are among the rare ones who have the capacity to forget, capacity to forgive! And it’s not everyone's cup of tea!

This makes you stronger than those who are asking you to change. The reality is that they want to be like you but oh gosh! you have set such high standards for them. Hence, they try to change you, change you in a way that could satisfy their ego, change you in a way that could lower down the standards for them.

Few things in life do not always have to be measured. They just work out if you show acceptance. I believe that the beauty of life lies in an inquisitive mind which sees everything just as magic, just like a baby, as if everything is working in it’s favor.

Acceptance negotiates the need of adjustment as well.
One can adjust in terms of Job, opportunities and such materialistic stuffs, but if you are being asked to change your innate nature, you know that you need to change the situation and the vibes around you.
Once you respect the way other person functions mentally as well as emotionally, all the so called adjustments too feel like joy.

So, as they say, "Don't hurry, don't worry, trust the process!" Everything will fall into place when it is the right time.

All I just want to say is - Don't try to change yourself to seek acceptance from others. You have been made like this by the Supreme power for some purpose. Identify that and keep going!

Good Luck!!
