Dear me,

It’s 03:50 AM in morning and you are up whole night. I know, you are trying to distract yourself but at-last you are landing up on same page that you are trying to skip. I know, life is full of drama and right now, your life isn’t less. I know, the situation you are in, isn’t favorable. I know, you don’t know what to do, but escaping the situation isn’t fair choice you make. You need to stop thinking about it. You know what, whenever you think of the situation, salty water rolls over your cheek unstoppably. Soaking your pillow into it, is neither good for you nor your pillow. I know, you are forcing yourself, controlling yourself and losing yourself at same time. I know, it’s really hard for you to accept that you are all alone….

It feels like, all that you dreamt off is trashed away in a second. It’s hard for you to imagine your life moving in some other direction because, you are not ready to give away your dreams, you are not ready to move in the direction, you are not ready to loose faith that you had while dreaming. You are in a dilemma. You have to make choice, a strong decision for yourself, or give yourself a break. You must have faith and confidence in yourself, that’s all it matters.

People don’t understand you. You must stand by yourself. You must stand for yourself. You are pampered until yesterday, not forever. People who watered you and helped you grow might suddenly stop. You might be left dry throat, thinking, you can change yourself into a cactus. I know, a grown tree cannot change it’s behavior easily but, can find it’s own way to fetch water. Plants are nourished not trees. You should be a tree. No matter what people say, no matter what people think, you do you.

You have your own dreams. You have made your own rules. Get your wings back. I know you want to fly high and enjoy the breeze. Get your dream tree and settle down, until then don’t stop enjoying the journey. I know you are not a cuckoo, go build your own nest.
