All the bright places




Words from a lilly.

I know of someone who says that this world isn't balanced. And I agree.

Some struggle to survive while some don't.

Some labour all day long but never have enough and some make money even while asleep. 

'Why is life like this?' you ask.

Well, all stars shine but the brightness of each one differs, even though they are all 'stars'.

All fingers are not equal. Everyone just can't be the same, but that doesn't mean you can't grow.

A gate man today can become the CEO of a renown business tomorrow. The ones mocked today can become the one celebrated in the future.

Life can be messy, so so messy but life can also be beautiful.

Can someone broken be mended? Can a person's broken mind be healed? Can we find our peace despite our tears, can we love despite having no one to love us back? Can we fully recover from pain and loss?

We've all lost something or someone, this is life but each person's mental capability to endure the weight of the loss is your strength, but not everyone is strong.

Often we're weary, often we're tired but there will always be hope to get better because even more than the sadness, the pain, the loss is beauty, happiness, and love unimaginable.

King David once asked God to make him see days of joy just as much as he'd seen days of sorrow.

We know there is evil, we know there is death and wickedness and we tend to dwell so much on this that we sometimes forget that there is love too, peace, tranquility, joy. . .yes even in this dark world.

There is light all around you.

We need to look for it and we need to be able to recognize it; beauty in the smiles of your siblings, wanting to go to the toilet and there's just the right amount of tissue paper left, or when you eat a good meal or drink a cold beverage after the sun has dealt with you, or when a child is born or when you're watching your favourite show, or when you do a good deed and you're recognized for it, or listening to your favourite song or when you're desperately tired and suddenly Nepa decided to notice you. It could be anything.

It's in the little things, choose to be happy and watch out for all the bright places or better still, 

Be one yourself.





Inspired by life and the movie 'All the bright places.'

    It feels great to know that one can always create happiness for oneself and there is always light at the end of the tunnel regardless of one's current situation

THE TOWER

We're all going up, striving for something, A better house, better cars, better jobs... But what really matters the most? That is the billion dollar question, right? Why do we do all of these, what is the end point? We know the end though we don't know _when_ it comes, But along the way, striving for these things, let us not forget those who love us, those who were there, those we laughed with, those we became stronger with, This life is indeed vanity but what's more is what comes after our race,  Will you be the winner of the race or the loser? Eternity is longer than our mortality, I can't not make it home after all I've been through here, So with each floor I climb, I must never forget what lies beyond the top of the tower, It's either I fall off, Or I fly beyond, So, dear reader, what will it be? Want to fly with me? From a flower in her garden, Taiwolilly ✌ . . . . A/N: It's been so long😣, I'm sorry for the late update. Please do let me know what y...

The thin line between sanity and insanity

It's like a wall that's separates us from the grim shadows on the other side. One wrong thought or sequence of thoughts and you're gone. In your mind, you need a filter or there's going to be a lot of junk in there, tons of toxic junk you don't need. Junk like; Do I look okay today? Am I good enough? What do they think about me? I'm never going to make it! You do know depression and anxiety are associated with thought, right? Your mind is too precious to harbor filth, so do away with them and let fresh air in. The person you are now, has already been established in your mind.  So, be careful about who you think you are because very shortly you'll see yourself becoming just that. Think positive, speak positive, be positive; "I can do this." "I'm brilliant." "I'm smart." "I'm in it to win it." "I'm beautiful." It all starts up there. ...
