Did your child criticise you today?
Did your boss reprimand you today?
Did your partner lose his/her temper at you today?
Did your parent disapprove of what you did today?
Did your colleague just put you down in front of your team?
Did your good friend just stand you up?
Did your neighbour just insult you in front of others from your locality?
It’s OK. Anyone can be wrong. Such is life. Everything is not perfect.
We can leave behind what was told today, here and now. Let us not take it with us to tomorrow. Because the person speaking to us surely is not!
Too often, our wonderful brand new sunny days start weighed down by the dark burdens of past words. But we are infinitely more than just a collection of other people’s judgements.
We must move on, mentally and emotionally. This can happen by focusing on things we love to do. Playing an instrument, learning a language, reading a book. Anything.
Brilliantly said. It’s almost like we carry a baggage of unnecessary thoughts and impressions from past experiences that directly/indirectly influence our actions in the current moment. It’s up to us to seize control of these narratives by consciously commiting to clear out ‘cache’ from our mind and offer ourselves fully in the present moment thus allowing life’s magic to truly unfold.
Thanks Vinay, exactly whatever you said!
