YOU ARE PERFECT!!!

"Nobody looks as beautiful as their facebook profile picture and nobody looks as ugly as their adhaar card picture." A wonderful quote said by Gaur Gopal das. Why do we subject ourselves with our pictures? The quote stated above is a funny quote and we all agree to it. But it has a lot of meanings. We all compare ourselves with others. At some point of our life, we are even jealous of someone's life. Being jealous is human nature and only a strong mind cannot be one. But why do we compare ourselves with our own pictures? Why do we think the life we put on display is better than our actual life?

Social media is a great platform to share our pictures, talents and a bunch of other stuffs. I am thankful to all the people who invented these apps. When we all started using these apps, we promised ourselves that social media will be on the bottom line of our priority list. Is it now? Most of your answers will be no. We all agree to the fact that our virtual life is way more better than our real life. We all started to subject ourselves to the number of likes and followers we have.

One day a priest asked his young audience, "How many of you love yourselves?" Everyone's raised their hands without even thinking. The priest smiled.  He came down from the stage and asked a boy to share his pictures. The boy shared all his pictures with no regret. The priest asked him, " Delete all the pictures from all your social media." The boy said, "I cannot do that." The priest asked why. He said that all his pictures were of high quality and cannot be clicked again. The priest repeated the question,"why?" He told, "I may not look good or I may not get the perfect shot again." The priest again asked his audience, "How many of you love yourselves?" There were no hands in the air.

This is the truth. We are all so involved in our virtual world and miss out the fun of reality. The fun around us, wonderful things happening around us. We love ourselves through a screen and not through our mirrors. Start taking care of yourself, not your accounts. Start loving yourself for the way you look, not your edited pictures. Start putting a mark on yourself for the actions you do, not by the likes and followers. Start living in the real world, not the virtual one. Stay Home.Stay Safe. Stay Happy.

Anaga starts to think.

Hey everyone. Myself Anaga Jose. I am 16...yup that awkward age between being a child and an adult. I consider myself as a person with deep thoughts and yea like desi aunties say "teens must not have deep thoughts." Well everyone says that. But I can't help it. I do think a lot and I think it is bad and good for me. It is bad because sometime I have suicide tendencies. It is good because when I have this kind of tendencies I write it down.I know weird right? But for me writing is everything. By everything means it has actually saved myself from many incidents.Especially writing poems. So blogging...I never knew how to blog or how to start blogging. I always wanted a platform to express my thoughts. Like I said I write poems out of my thoughts and I do post it on my whatsapp status but I think it is just useless because only a few people see it. By few I mean 50 people. Out of 50 people 10 people don't even read it. Rest 40 people do read it. But then it is just teenag

MISTAKES

What is the biggest mistake you have done in your life? It seem to be a very easy question but it is a hard one. We always have that one mistake that we always keep thinking about. That one embarrassing  mistake. But then the best thing you can do is to accept that mistake and correct it. If you can't correct it then stay silent, the more you think or talk about your mistakes, the more it gets worst.Another thing you can do is to live with that mistake like I am doing right now. Yup BLOGGING. My biggest mistake right now was starting a blog. You people laughing behind the screens huh? Try starting a blog. Now this doesn't mean that I haven't done any other mistakes. Right now sitting in front of my laptop, I think starting a blog was a mistake. Why? because writing a blog is not easy. Coming up with new ideas every week is not easy. Writing a blog is not like writing a speech or an essay. It is writing about thoughts in your head and right now my head is empty.  But bloggin

LOVE

  How many of you have fallen in love with a wrong person? Many of us have. We may love that person from the bottom of our heart. But we are not sure if the other person loves us the same way. I am gonna write about love.Everyone has fallen in love once. If you haven't I appreciate you. But I prefer to learn from my experiences. It is okay to fall in love with a toxic person. Because next time your past will warn you. Above all I think we all have a time to fall in love. Fall in love when your mature enough. Fall in love when you are sure that it won't affect important things you are doing. Fall in love if you are sure it won't hurt people around you. Love is dangerous. When we are in love we are someone else. Someone we don't know. We are blind when we are in love. I was in love...twice. One was toxic and one was not. The toxic one was the one which hurt me a lot. What hurts more than breakup? When a person you love play with your feelings. We are more likely to be bli
