Everything in life is comforting, only until you consider it to be so!
Such a dilemma proof statement which is also a-typical & hypocritical at the same time. Oh well; with all the ups & way too many downs going on around, in the middle of nowhere I just thought of writing some of it for now.
The ransom effects of shifting from a place that has been your home to a new city, house, family and culture. There exist a constant comparison, more in your own head than the outside. The whole process of finding the comforting feeling and letting it go and repeating the process all way again & again is indeed a whole set of saga in itself.
But the real melodrama begins when I am searching for myself midst of all the chaos that going on in and around my life. That damn feeling to keep the core values intact and alive take real effort. Also I keep reiterating to myself that "Happiness is the only serendipity I look out for". Though I don't know if that really is so.
In the most adverse situations remember the filmy thought "If its not happy, its not the end!!!"
Cringe enough but yeah this thought has been the force of my motivation in so many ways in the past few years. The factual realization that being happy is actually suppose to be bare minimum basic and not just at the end. Cause the moment when you find happiness, is it moment of being clearly thoughtful and the most self aware you can ever be. The catch is that the moment of happiness can only be lived and cannot be stored or so in any form or manner.
Encapsulating happiness also sounds like an impossible task. The impossibility of the thought is not that we may not be able to live that feeling again but it is only that we must know how to be consistent at it, about being happy. It could be a habit, a person, a place, a memory from our past (majorly childhood for most humans), any particular time of the day, situational factors and could also be everything.
All things new and old have always existed in itself parallelly. I am the one navigating through them in the mode past and present. And its only the naive me who understood later enough now that, Once I have figured out to be consistent at my things, my people, my habits, my place, my world and everything that remains to be mine without actually having me to call it mine, I knew I am happy.
And now thing is, once the basics of happiness is found, I only have to cherish it. Just this is actually enough to let happiness breathe around me. Cause eventually happiness is the beginning of all things wonderful awaiting to happen in life. And irrespective of all the considerations; comfort eventually only follows happiness.
PoV: A major Life lesson learnt- Comfort follows being happy with your own self.
So true ❤️
