Spontaneous Insta-Detox . Will be more online on here again , always enjoying my calm and friendly Tumblr-family :) Insta can easily turn into a bubble while tumblr is not. I feel like this shift is very good for me rn and I have always a boost of inspiration (and communication!) when taking my time off from Insta. Mabe because I am connected to many people that I personally know and that even live in the same city/country as me. It feels good to not always be online, available, scrolling sharing. To take conscious breaks and to return even more to myself and to my digital scrapbook/diary here with no rush, no comparison and nor shame nor guilt. Don't get me wrong but hustling in silence has become a way of living for me. Not that I dont talk to anybody bout it- but I dont talk to everybody about it all the time. It's a tiny yet significant difference ! It also feels like really growing up. The best way to share is to listen to myself, to write it down or to get creative in any other way. And ofc I share things when I feel like doing so (esp sharing pictures of nature, selfwritten texts or art that deeply inspires me). I think there is a healthy way of using Social Media when we consciously step away, take breaks (not limiting ourselves!) and distance ourself from over-stimulation. As a highly sensitive person I catch myself triggered, nervous or anxious when I consume too much social media (in particular IG) as there is oftentimes so much content mixed up and chaotic, making me at times definitely more anxious and nervous than happy (ofc not all the time). But whenever I feel that I've reached such a point again, it is my mind and body telling my to consciously step back and to silently focus on myself, my wellbeing and intentionally turning the volume of the noise of my head down. Whenever I feel like it- I'll return- no limits, not judging myself. It's like deep breathing for the mind; slowing down the volume of our thoughts and letting peace naturally enter my being. Besides, I have so much work to do that it seems best for me to do so right now, as I owe myself this regeneration.

Wishing you a blessed Moonday and Start of the Week! :)<3

Much much love,

Why your kid Being Dumped by a Friend ?

5 reasons why kids might end a friendship There are many reasons why kids might end a friendship, including drifting apart due to changes in interests, having disagreements or conflicts, feeling left out or excluded, or simply finding new friends. Sometimes the reasons for the breakup are not clear or may be one-sided, with one child wanting to continue the friendship while the other moves…

Sometimes the best way to grow is to leave people behind and focus on ourselves. We may outgrow those around us, but that doesn't mean we can't hold onto the lessons they taught us and use them to become better versions of ourselves. . . . . . #GrowYourself #SelfDevelopment #OutgrowingPeople #ProgressOverPeople #GrowthMindset #SelfImprovement #LoveYourself #MyJourney #OwnYourPath #OutgrowPeople #SelfGrowth #GrowApart #ChangeIsGood #GrowingApart #KeepMovingForward #LifeLessons #TransformingYourself #PersonalDevelopment #GrowthAndEvolution #AdjustingToChange #EvolutionOfSelf #EmbraceChange #AdaptAndGrow #PersonalGrowth #PersonalEvolution #InvestInYourself #BecomingTheBestYou #RisingAboveItAll #RiseUp #MovingOn (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoSRcf5OLo5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Growing Up Apart?

✨ As I blow out the birthday candles in a distant place, my mind drifts to the same pondering question: am I growing up or growing apart? ✨

🎂 Back in the day, I spent entire days with my loved ones, gleefully watching my mom whip up the most delicious gulabjamun. And oh, the enchanting stories we shared after cutting the cake at night! Those memories still warm my heart. 🍰

💃🏻 Nowadays, I find myself caught up in the joyous whirlwind of dancing and vibing with my buddies. A simple "Haa ma, thank you will call u later" seems to suffice. But when did I stop pouring out my every secret and school shenanigan to my mom? 📚

🤔 As we grow older, it's like our stories have become censored when it comes to our parents. It's a little daunting, isn't it? Is it too late to open up again? Will she worry about these tiny details? These doubts hold me back every time I attempt to spill my heart out to her. 😶

🏠 I can't help but wonder if they realize that the person standing before them now isn't the same one who left for work or studies the last time. Maybe that's why they sometimes smother us with concern. They're just as unsure as we are about this transition. ❤️

🌈 Is this the universal fate of every child turning into an adult? Will I experience the same? The uncertainty lingers in my mind. But hey, maybe that's part of the challenge that comes by living. 🌟

🔮 Mom , if you're reading this, know that my love for you never fades, no matter how much life changes or how far we may be. The bond with family is unbreakable. Let's bridge the gap, rediscover each other, and create new memories together. 💫

💖 Embracing the love that time cannot erase, let's embark on this adventure and cherish the beauty of growing up, side by side. 💖

What are the worst case scenarios in any relationship apart from breakups/divorce?

Hey there, Great question you’ve got there. When it comes to relationships, there are indeed several worst-case scenarios that can occur apart from breakups or divorce. Let me share a fictional story from my own life to illustrate some of these scenarios.

A few years ago, I was in a committed relationship with someone I deeply cared about. We were together for a couple of years and things seemed to be going well. However, one of the worst-case scenarios that I faced was infidelity. I discovered that my partner had been cheating on me, and it shattered my trust and caused immense pain. It was devastating to realize that the person I loved had betrayed my trust, and it took a toll on my emotional well-being. Infidelity can be a heartbreaking experience, leading to feelings of betrayal, anger, and a loss of self-esteem.

Another challenging scenario that can arise in relationships is constant arguments and conflicts. While disagreements are a normal part of any relationship, frequent and unresolved conflicts can be extremely draining. I remember a time when my partner and I would argue about everything, from trivial matters to more significant decisions. The constant tension and lack of harmony made our relationship feel like a battleground rather than a place of love and support. It took a toll on both our mental and emotional health, and we found ourselves feeling exhausted and disconnected from each other.

In conclusion, apart from breakups and divorce, there are various worst-case scenarios that can arise in relationships. Infidelity and constant conflicts are just a couple of examples, but it’s important to remember that every relationship is unique, and the challenges it faces may differ. The key is open communication, mutual respect, and a willingness to work through difficulties together.

And the secret to letting go is… realising you are worthy of the kind of love they are unable to give you. Don’t watch it rot: acknowledge, accept, move on. #relationships #breakups #divorce #heartbreak #growth #independence #growingapart #lovehasdied #nolove #resentment #bitterness #marriage #toorelievedtogrieve #karanscottauthor #thealternativeheartbreakhandbook #memoir #newbookalert #selfhelpbook #heartbreakmanual #heartbroken https://www.instagram.com/p/CZTntSyo1ij/?utm_medium=tumblr

Just a Lingering Away

Do you remember the time before,

When we were but a lingering away?

We were a phone call and a one-word-voice-message away,

A tumblr message, and an Instagram status update away,

We were a pizza delivery away,

A Saturday might sleepover away,

We were a teenager crisis away,

We were an 'I miss you' away,

Hell, there were times when we were a sad look-into-the-distance away,

Later, and often, we were a taxi in traffic away,

A delated train; a six-hour-flight away,

A Skype notification on Sunday evenings, away,

And an 'adult' love-life trouble away,

Do you remember, when we were just a memory away?

The time when we were three crying emoticons away?

I do. And I remember it so clearly; It hurts.

It hurts 'cause we were so close, now we're more than miles away.

I called you, messaged you, and tagged you in my rare emotional tweets

I ordered pizza and sent you a selfie, on a Saturday, I swear.

I left a message that I missed you, I even looked away in despair.

But you're still not here. Do you not even care?

There was a time - I remember - when all I had to do, was call you by your name,

And you'd be there, for me; you'd reach out to me, and you'd get me.

And, I realise...

That more than a solution, I just needed you there.

NO, that's wrong. I need you here.

I know you have a family, a job, and everything but a moment.

But, do you think you could make one for me; just a moment, for old time's sake?

Because I need to know if we're a forever away,

Or maybe just an 'I love you too' away...

Lately I’ve been contemplating my friendships. I’ve been thinking about who has truly been there for me this year, and whether or not I’ve been able to return that same courtesy to them. For those that I’ve called my best friends for nearly half my life, I’ve felt pretty distant from them lately. On the other hand, I’ve just met and developed relationships with people only this year and within the last 2 years that have now become the first ones I’d message for anything at all. For the last few months I’ve kept telling myself that its just a natural stage of adulthood and its natural for people to grow apart, but this seems to be weighing more on me lately now that the holidays are here. I feel like more and more my friends from high school and I aren’t understanding each other and whenever I express my thoughts or feelings or interests I always get the “unpopular opinion” look of disapproval.

I’m at a place where I’m not quite sure how to deal with this. I still feel obligated to get together and hang out (as I would be the only person out of 8 that would choose not to attend things), yet when I am around I feel as though I’m not being honest with them, or myself. Both leave me feeling unsettled.

Guess this is just one of the many awkward circumstances of growing up and growing apart in adulthood...

Sometimes the people we think will stay forever finally leave we don't even realise it and we stop talking. One day on the phone we say goodbye and don't even realise that we might not be able to talk ever again but unfortunately life is just that way Guys this is my original work so if you want to use it please take permission also follow me on Tumblr.
