“When you are washing the dishes, washing the dishes must be the most important thing in your life. Just as when you are drinking tea, drinking tea must be the most important thing in your life. Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the whole world revolves—slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future. Live the actual moment. Only this actual moment is life.”

— Thich Nhat Hanh

whenever you are in a situation where something you have spent so much time working on didn't turn out right, don't blame yourself. you are still figuring your life out and atleast you know now what isn't gonna work out for you.

being kissed in your sleep and being pulled closer within cuddles is such a top tier form of affection

stop justifying your mistakes. you made a mistake because you are a human. PERIOD.

some things in life are just difficult and unfair and impossible and heartbreaking. we may never get over some things. we may never forgive some people. we may never find closure in some situations. and that’s okay. we will keep living despite all these things.

a little message: You meet people in your life, you get to know them, you feel yourself getting attached to them, you might even have some great times with them but nothing is more fun than having that one constant person in your life that makes you enjoy the little things without worrying about what the world might think of you. Those moments where you act like 6year old kids and do not regret it even for a second. I hope you hold onto such people forever because in this world full of deadlines, paychecks, exams and competition, you might need someone like that.

[littlemisswithacloudedmind]

The reason why many people are unhappy with something is because they care too much about the outcome. Learn to enjoy the process. Even if the result turns out to be awful, you wouldn't regret it because you truly enjoyed the process. And that's what counts.

maybe the purpose of life is to fill it with as many positive things as you can. regardless of how bad life gets, don’t let it steal your personality, your hobbies, your style. after coming home from a bad day at work maybe you need to sit down and read a nice book. after studying non-stop for so long, maybe you should finish that crochet project you’ve been putting off because you’re so busy. maybe we should prioritize the things we love, the things that make us happy, and not just the things we’re forced to do to survive. in this society, a little peace from the outside world is important. don’t give up on the things that make you happy. don’t forget about yourself.

Healing is never linear.

you realise it's time to let them go. you start taking care of yourself. you buy yourself flowers.

But then it's sunday afternoon, you start missing them. you cry. you wipe your tears and make a decision to stay strong and move on.

And the cycle continues.

the concept of growing into love is so much more intriguing than falling in love. it's like, on all our good days and bad days, I will choose to love you, I will learn with you, I will live my life with you and we will grow into and with each other through the passage of time

[littlemisswithacloudedmind]

you are not less because of your trauma. you’re lovable and you are enough despite anything you’ve been through. you are not defined by what other people have done to you.

[littlemisswithacloudedmind]

Hear me out. No matter how many times your heart has been broken, it still holds the same value. It's just as beautiful as it was when you were a kid. So never let any heartbreak hold you back from realising that you deserve the best.

You don't have to pretend to be okay.

When you're looking at yourself in the mirror and you hear voices inside your head telling you that you are not good enough, you do not have to tie them up and put them in a corner of your mind, assuming that you won't be dealing with them again.

They might get louder. You never know.

[littlemisswithacloudedmind]

Gifting flowers is overrated. Try writing a paragraph about me.

[littlemisswithacloudedmind]

Sometimes when you've been sad or in pain for too long, you get used to it. And after a while, when you're no longer in that state, you have no idea how to deal with yourself. You might even miss the sense of self you had before. In such times, ask yourself to be strong. Do not give in to the past for the sake of habit. Make being happy your new normal.

honestly, i don't want love at first sight. I want a love that gradually intensifies with every conversation. that's the kind of love i need.
