We often look back at our pictures and say,look at the way I am dressed,how weird do I look!? Then I think about the way I am today which makes me want to observe and look deep into how I transitioned into the person I am today, things and instances that shaped me.
When I think about my childhood I can’t stop thinking about how noisy and clingy, yet innocent we were,So new! So fresh! However,as we grow up we often grow distant and reserved about our feelings. Especially,the way we used to cry as kids to get attention of literally everyone around us and the way we made a point of what we wanted by expressing our rawest form of emotions. The whole motive or perception of crying changes as we age-‘Ahh!! I am tearing up! I would seem weak! Would they understand me or pity me? What would he or she think of me? These kinds of insecurities creep into our hearts.
I wonder,how constantly we are changing and evolving…. I have seen a lot of interviews where famous people are asked if they regret anything in life or something they would want to change in their life by going back and most of them have none because they embrace themselves and love the way they are and somehow I have believed it since a long time but lately I think I do have a few regrets or things that might have turned out a little bit different…. I am even ready to trade my other quality with it which is CONFIDENCE. For instance, I feel hesitant asking for what I need sometimes,for that reason I prefer malls over stores. When it comes to confidence, I see Priyanka Chopra in front of my eyes,she might no be bestest but according to me nobody can beat hear when it comes to being confident. I have read and seen her multiple interviews where she talks about being confident, I hope I can accomplish atleast a percent of it. I have worked on myself I have changed from observing, reading, listening.
Every person and every situation changes a part of us,changes the way we look at things. I read somewhere,every moment good or bad… Led us here. If we take away so much as a moment,we take away a piece of our life,a piece of us. It truly amazes me at times,like if that one thing that happened didn’t happen or we didn’t lose that one thing,didn’t meet that one person may not be the exact person that we are now. Every heartbreak, every achievement, every movie, that we watched or book that we read, every person that left or stayed, everything somehow, despite all that didn’t work out or good and bad all of it played a part into molding us into the way we are now.
It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.– Charles Darwin
