What do you mean?

In this life, everything is planned, everything is questioned and everything is calculated. From Zero to Hero.

I love how we do no plans for anything and get everything. Being so thankful for my journey that taught me a lot and take from me a lot but still a good teacher so far.

I love my past, now and my next me because the more I fall I grow. Believe me, in every minute and every second we change to the best.

Don’t underestimate yourself, don’t blame yourself and don’t be hard, stubborn and as I like to call it headstrong. Because, you’ll lose the beautiful/gentle you. And when you do, you’re no more you. You’ll start the journey to the unknown.

Approximately, every single day we ask “ What do you mean?” I agree that it’s a normal question but deep inside it is not, it is a glowing question that brings the whole of you to answer, to build justifications and to think.

Be it a compliment or a comment about you; your style or personality. You will decidedly ask this question to know the exact intention behind the target reflection and reaction.

Do not quest, do not think about others’ intentions and think only about the good feelings that people share with one another, there is a beautiful LOVE that brings joy and warmth to the world and we have to take from it as much as we can. Also, we have to think well in others, this is the only way we can live tranquilly. Be like the light leaf that travels around making no sound and dance with the wind and flee from the dust of the ground.

I will end up my story for today with a quote that I love:

“To be loved anyhow — this is a human offering that can border on miraculous.”

Much Love,

Yours Oya ❤
