Slow down and enjoy life

Anyone else always worried and consumed by what comes next? This was my fear, the thought itself was so scary that I couldn’t even think about good things. This has been my constant battle. Not sure about rushing things but definitely it was about what will happen next. This is the reason I don’t post that much here as well as on Instagram because I feel like if I don’t want to do anything, I shouldn’t do it because this is my life and I need to decide what to do. I can’t do what other people are doing and I don’t want to rush things by writing about every trend you know. It’s completely ok if I don’t write about anything because as long as my mind is at peace, I am happy.
Now I see people who are constantly planning for a future, they aren’t even sure they will get. Rushing, racing, and competing against themselves and others. It’s something I wanted to talk about and I couldn’t think of a better time then this.
We all hope for better days, right? That someday our time will come, not today but maybe tomorrow. We’ll find our way. In that process we lose ourselves, we constantly fight a battle inside our head which shouldn’t be a battle in the first place but because we are so occupied by our thoughts, we can’t even think about anything else. We want to do several things at a time which is not possible. Everything will happen on the right time and that right time will come but we actually have to slow down and just flow with what universe is offering to us. After putting alot of effort and thoughts into it, I realized that I need to abandon my fears of missing out, losing and being left behind. There’s no deadline to meet in life, nothing to do or complete at a certain time. They say with time you get to see what you are looking for then why we want to see that time to come early? It just drains all the energy and there will be no peace of mind as your mind is processing too fast, wanting to complete things too fast and being a complete mess. Slow down and enjoy life as it is. Do not try to make things complicated by just jumping from one thing to another and trying to be a Robot because it’ll not be worth it. So what if you didn’t do that internship because you just wanted to be at home. So what if you missed an opportunity because it didn’t feel right. So what if you are not doing what others are doing. It doesn’t matter because what matters is your peace of mind. I am a lazy person but sometimes doing different things at a time is overwhelming but then I have to remind myself again to not fall into that destructive cycle. Just remind yourself that If I don’t relax right now, and give in to this rush and worry, I will always fall back into this destructive cycle. And every time, this negative cycle will repeat itself a little worse than the last time. And a little faster than the one before.
So that, eventually, I will be living my whole life in a state of stress and hurry, not being able to relax anymore. Always worrying about one thing or another. I don’t think any of us would want our family to remember us as always being too busy for them. So, let’s try to live out a more intentional life. Let’s savor the moments as they come knowing that everything else will be taken care of in due time.

I hope you aren’t held back because of a number. And that you don’t rush into things because it feels like time is slipping by. I hope you do what’s right for you. Hold on. Slow down. And breathe in. Your age is your age. But more importantly, your life is your life. Don’t change your journey so that it matches someone else’s. We need to walk different paths so that the whole world can be explored. Revel in the differences. And enjoy where you are.

Instagram and blogging – Turning into a chaotic world!

Mostly, I thought going off social platforms would be a relief. Checking the river of posts was a chore. I want to focus on blog more than Instagram so these days I am writing so much for my blog, for magazines and other blogs as well. I post once a week on Instagram if I want to, not a compulsion because I realize that now adays you come to see a completely different world on Instagram curated by bloggers who are just in the race of getting PR-that is Fake world and I chose not to be a part of it because I enjoy blogging and I don’t want it to become a burden for me, you get me right?
Organically, I started shifting my attention toward content and experiences that provided more substance. Wasn’t there more to life than sitting around scrolling through #ads and #ootds? It’s getting boring because every other blogger is doing the same, nothing different so it’s better to not do the same and be who you are. Do what you want to do. I feel like if you don’t want to post on Instagram, it’s your choice and you shouldn’t. And I also think it’s great to not let that negative element consume you in a way that will feel like a burden or a necessity. I discovered that internal validation through personal successes is more meaningful than external validation through likes and comments. When you don’t let that control you, you realize that there’s so much more you can do. Focus on from where it all started which is writing. I donot envy the glamorous lives of Instagram influencers jetting around the world with their stacks of suitcases packed to the brim with designer clothing ready to shoot the perfect sponsored post in front of the Fontana di Trevi or the Taj Mahal. My focus shifted to substance, not imagery; it shifted outward.
The days of social media, which initially empowered anyone to create content, has largely been replaced by monetizing and advertising structures that leave very little authenticity in the everyday images we consume. I’ve experienced firsthand the absurdity of social media influencers posing for photos for Instagram in cafes. I’ve walked past fashion bloggers posing in streets mostly for a paid partnership with a brand. I am not saying it’s extremely wrong, all I am trying to say is that How does it shape the content we consume?
If you have a big following whether you bought it or not but mostly are bought because you can’t just get 100k followers in a week, you are a blogger no matter how much pathetic and copied your content is and on the other hand if you have 1k following and your content is freaking amazing, you are not a blogger. What is this? Who decided this criteria? As far as I know this wasn’t the case few years ago but now it’s a game of followers and I don’t want to get trapped in it. Stina Sanders, an influencer who lost thousands of followers after posting honest #unfiltered images, can also connect social media to her struggles with anxiety. “I know from my experience I can get FOMO when I see my friend’s photos of a party that I didn’t go to, and this, in turn, can make me feel quite lonely and anxious. On the other hand, if I’m feeling great in myself, I’ve noticed that I don’t get as anxious when I’m on social media,” she told The Independent. “So personally I don’t think social media causes anxiety but I do believe it can play a big part in heightening your feelings.”
See she started posting unfiltered photos and suddenly she lost followers because we see filtered photos each day and we consume that on daily basis and when somebody posts a photo without any filter, we don’t like it because it’s not how we have been trained to see people but I guess it’s more beautiful, it will always be beautiful. I want to see more real content on my feed than the same copied content by every other blogger. That’s bizarre!

Isn’t this all turning into a chaotic world? Let’s just assume that I want to buy a make-up product so based on a recommendation of blogger I am going to buy a high end product which will cost me so much and when I decide to buy it, I see some other blogger going against it and telling me not to buy it. Now I will be confused and won’t know what to do. To buy it or not to buy it? And after battling this, I would want to go with what I want. Similarly is the case with food blogging, you go and try a place on recommendation of a blogger and you hate what you got to eat because it was a paid post and food to them was presented differently. What? Yes this is what chaos is.

We’ve created filters through which others see our lives—making many anxious and miserable in the process. We talk about branding ourselves—all the while further inflating our egos. We strive for authenticity while drowning in sameness. We claim social connectivity while increasingly struggling to stay present. I’m conscious we need to rethink our relationship with social media. Ultimately, I’m left with multiple questions and few answers, but I believe it’s a conversation worth having—one that might be best experienced in real life.

I chose not to play a part in spreading chaos all around and go with what I love posting about. I will do what I want. I don’t want to go with what’s in right now. I don’t want to fit in because I can’t no matter how much I’ll try. It’s just not my thing. So these days you’ll see me talking about life in general and these issues if I’ll be posting anything.

Share your views below. Why there’s so much chaos all around?

How To Deal With Post Vacation Blues!

There’s something that every vacation has, and it’s something we cannot avoid: an end, whether it’s summer holidays, semester break or any other vacation. If you’re anything like me, you’re already stressing over spring semester. You’ve got a new schedule to figure out, classes that you already feel behind in. All this is hard enough, but it seems even more impossible when you’re returning to university after almost a month of total relaxation. It gets really hard to wake up on time and to go to uni and attend lectures and then come back home super tired and you get no time to do anything else.
So if the post-winter break blues are getting you down, here are some simple ways to feel better:

1) ARRANGE YOUR CLOSET AND

PREPARE YOURSELF

Okay so first step is to arrange your closet. It’s kind of therapeutic, at least that’s what I feel. Keep everything in an organized manner. This will help you! I arranged my clothes and made up my mind that what I am going to wear for the whole week.

2) DON’T STRESS YOURSELF OUT BY THINKING ABOUT FUTURE ALOT

Another important thing is to not over think about how you’ll adjust. Just focus on the good. Be positive. Give yourself some time and gradually you’ll be fine with everything. That’s what I did. For the whole first week, I tried really hard and literally pushed myself in the morning to go to uni like I didn’t want to get out of bed, I mean it was that hard but then gradually it became my routine. That’s it.

3) TAKE SMALLER STEPS

If you are like me and you want to feel excited about going to uni/college, it won’t happen instantly. It’s a slow process like it sort of feels fine eventually. Give yourself few days to adjust. New beginnings are not always easy and exciting you know. So yeah, you need to be pretty clear about what you want to do in order to live in the moment.

4) HAVE FUN

Go out with your friends. Have fun and do things that make you happy. A good company plays an important part regarding this. If you have good friends, you’ll have fun in uni and I am really fortunate that my friends are awesome and we do alot of fun things together and they make university bearable for me.
Do things that makes you happy and most importantly have fun. It’s limportant to enjoy initial days so that you’re prepared for hectic routine and stuff like that.

5) GET IN THE ROUTINE

And by this I mean, start planning. Write in a journal or a notebook and make a schedule. Things will work out this way because this is what I do in every weekend. I write down stuff that I need to do for the next week. This way, it gets really easy for me to track what are the things I still need to focus on more and things that I need to eliminate you know. University life is really hectic and for me weekend is a sign of relief, so I note down stuff that I need to complete and prepare myself for Monday.

That’s all guys. I hope these tips will help you.

How do you get in the routine after a great vacation?

Loveandlight.

JANUARY 2019 WAS ONE AMAZING MONTH // VACATIONS OVER

With the start of new year, I had my finals going on and I was really tensed and after that vacations started and now that new semester is going to start from Monday, I thought of sharing how my vacations were as I didn’t publish any blog post in that time period.

January was a great start, it was amazing month for me not because vacations started but professionally aswell. I did what I love. I am a lazy person and I like going slow so when vacations started I did nothing for one whole week. My routine was literally about eating and sleeping. I took a break from everything and I didn’t have to worry about anything whether it’s blog related work or something else. That time period was amazing. After that I tried cooking new dishes and experimented alot and I guess I succeeded as well and read 1 book in a day so my routine was like, cooking, eating, reading and sleeping.

Then after one week we went to Murree and it was a family trip. I had such an amazing time, played in snow after ages, ate good good and spent a great day with the people I love. Also everything looked so beautiful, trees were covered with snow and it was beautiful. Murree is my hometown and honestly I love it and go there alot but this time it was so much fun.

So before going to Murree I got an opportunity to cover Coke fest’19 for the blog. I loved it despite the fact that it was very crowded but yes I got to try different things from some amazing restaurants. I went late because I didn’t get time to go in the day and it was very cold too but good food makes me happy so it was fun and I enjoyed it.

For those of you who don’t know, Coke Fest is basically food and music festival which is held in every city of Pakistan every year and it’s for three days. You get to eat food from top restaurants in your city while getting an opportunity to attend a concert of some of your favorite singers. If you are following me on Instagram then you must have an idea how fun it was. I thought of doing a separate post for it but then I decided to write everything in one post.

Then after that great weekend, I met my friends and it’s been 12 years we are together and I met them after one year and oh I was so happy to meet them. Also it was a sudden plan and I had such an amazing time at my friend’s place. It was nice catching up with them.

So ya that’s it. I am really really grateful that I had an amazing time. And now that university is starting from Monday, I am hoping that this will be a great semester too. Yes new semester, new beginnings and all but honestly I just wanna have good time and that’s it so I am really hoping that I’ll get to enjoy this semester and just enjoy everything rather than stressing myself out on little things that don’t matter in the end.

Tell me how was January for you guys? How’s 2019 going so far?

Thank you for stopping by. Xoxo

Tayto Cafe Food Review

Happy weekend guys. Hope you all had an amazing day!♥

The fact that this is the first food review for this blog is really weird for me because as much as I love trying new restaurants, how come I have never thought about writing a review for the blog. Anyways you guys will be seeing more of this now. Haha. Okay so a week ago, I along with my friends went to Tayto as many people recommended it to me and it was on my ‘to try’ list. It’s a small cafe located in centaurus mall with a nice ambiance. It’s the talk of the Town lately so I had to try it out.

What We Ordered:

Their burgers are quite famous so we ordered their California crispy burger, chicken parmesan pasta and crispy chicken wrap.

California Crispy Burger

Price: Rs 589

They served within 15 minutes. The. California crispy burger was really really good. It had the right amount of sauce and patty was well cooked and juicy aswell. It was served with fries and saute veggies. You actually need to try this burger if you are a fan of good burgers.

Chicken Parmesan Pasta

Price: Rs 749

Coming to the parmesan pasta, it tasted so good. I love pasta like I can eat it in breakfast as well so I am yet to try a place which offers best pasta like perfect one but this one was also worth a try. Penne pasta cooked in white sauce was served with fried chicken breast topped with parmesan cheese and garlic bread roll. It was cooked well and served hot which is a plus point. Also serving was huge, more than enough for two people. Do give it a try if you ever visit Tayto.

Crispy Chicken Wrap

Price: 529

I didn’t try crispy chicken wrap because I was too full but my friend gave a thumbs up so yeah. Chucks of crispy fried chicken in a wrap were served with fries and saute veggies.

Overall it was a lovely experience and I am definitely going there again for burgers💁🍔

Food quality: 9/10
Ambiance: 8/10
Service: 8/10

Gratitude: The Secret To Happiness!

Life sometimes can feel like a burden. Waking up early in the morning, doing same boring tasks each day, having bad days, not able to do what you want to do, all these things contribute towards feeling tired & bored. We need motivation, inspiration to feel good but we neglect the things around us. We ignore little things which are actually making us feel good everyday & they push us to do same boring tasks with hope that future is bright you know. We begin the day thinking about good times & we go to sleep thinking about the same thing but we never do any kind of effort actually to make our thinking better. We chase things that are not meant for us or the things we can’t have in our lives no matter how much we want them to be a part of ourselves, we can’t because that’s how it is- that’s how it’s written. Deep down we know that those things are not for us but still we don’t stop chasing them, you know why? The real reason behind all this is lack of gratitude. We don’t appreciate tiny things & then we end up chasing things that are not made for us. Sometimes we want to be happy but things don’t go as we like them to be and we feel like giving up but you know what we lack at that particular time? Gratitude. Yes gratitude is associated with happiness in a huge manner. If you will look at everything with that perspective, trust me you will be more happy everyday and it will be the real happiness. Try to live your life by filling gratitude in every way and that will lead to a positive lifestyle. Sadness will be replaced by happiness and confusion with clarity.

“Being grateful makes you happier.”

There’s so much to focus upon in our surroundings that can help us to be more thankful and less complaining. There are so many people with any home, job and even family and they don’t even have access to things that you have access to. They want to live a life like you do and YOU run after things that are not meant for you, that will destroy you but all you do is ignore that and keep on running. Sit down mate and think about what you are doing for yourself. Think about good times and if you can’t focus on positive things, pray to Allah and be thankful. This will make you a better person. Chase your dreams but don’t run after things that are not made for you but in order to live a luxurious life you run after them. Try to live in the moment and spread kindness like confetti!🌻

There’s a reason why I am writing specifically about gratitude because I feel really thankful to Allah and the reason is this is the month I decided to do what i wanted to do for a long time but couldn’t decide you know but now that it’s been a year, it really feels surreal. I am so happy that I am doing what I love doing other than studies and that is blogging. I made an account on wordpress 2 years ago and didn’t publish a single post because I wasn’t sure about it and then in April, 2017 I finally published my first blog post & now this one’s 31st post that I am going to publish…….phew I have come a long way. Hahaha. I just wanted to thank all of you, thank you for being with me on this journey and thankyou for always interacting on my posts and showing love, you know who you are. Thankyou so much, your support means alot. This couldn’t have been possible without you all. It’s been an amazing journey so far with fantastic experiences, collaborations and opportunities and also this whole journey has been a learning experience in a better way. The best part about all of this is that I feel happy and that I guess is the real achievement. Let’s end this post on a positive note and also my blogiversary will be on 13th and I will come back with a new post on that day so stay tuned!💗✨

“Do not wait. The time will never be ‘Just right.’ Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found AS YOU GO ALONG.”

Follow me on my Instagram to know more about this journey.

What are you grateful for? Also I am thinking of doing a Q/A so if you have any question, comment it down⬇

Love and light.x.

December Favorites!

Hi everyone. Hope you guys are doing good & hope that you all had amazing holidays. I was not able to post here consistently because of finals (not a great start to new year) but holidays just started and I wanted to post the list of my favorites at the end of every month but due to some reasons I couldn’t do that and now i thought no matter what I am going to post a list of my favorite things so without any delay, let me show you guys what are those things(Mmmm more about beauty products)Haha

• Huda beauty-mini pink edition

I wanted to buy huda beauty matte lip glosses for a while and finally I bought it from cheapdeals.store
I like different shades of pink so I ordered mini pink edition & currently I am obsessed with the ‘gossip gurl’ one. It had 4 shades including gossip gurl, trophy wife, icon & socialite. Being a university student you have to wear lipsticks often & I would highly recommend this if you don’t want to look extra. The shades are beautiful & I like the matte feel of these lipglosses. They are not very long lasting but still better than many. If you want me to review them then let me know.

• Maybelline’s Mascara & pencil

Now who doesn’t love this mascara by Maybelline? Maybelline products are my favorite & this is one of them. This gives a good volume to lashes & has a great effect.

“A little bit mascara, a lotta bit of confidence”

• Mac compact powder

This one really surprised me. It is 5 in 1 like it has 5 different shades for every skin type or you can say it depends which you want to apply. I really like the BB one though.

• Seven cool highlighter

This is the first time I am using this highlighter & it’s very good. It blends flawlessly into the skin. Plus point is that it gives a natural glow without looking cakey.

So that’s all about the things I bought. I will be posting another post shortly so don’t forget to sign up.

Ending this post on this motivational note, “Do something everyday that brings you closer to your goals”

Love & light.x.

Things you should do before the year ends!

Few days left & this year will be over & I am thinking where the hell did all time go? This year comparatively was better than 2016 on so many levels and can’t thank Allah enough for that. This time of the year always bring happiness and warmth. You open insta & everybody is posting stuff related to holidays and reviewing their year & then you realize how much little things matter. Bloggers are posting some great stuff & I seriously have to read so many posts because it always feels good to read positive stuff. I don’t actually know where to start & how to end this post so, whatever comes in my mind i’m writing it down. I made account on wordpress 2 years ago (yes you read that right) but I published my first blog in July this year. It took me 2 years to actually start blogging like properly & this is one thing that I’m so proud of because you know you have to come out of your comfort zone & it feels really good. I am so glad that I’ve received immense support from you guys, your comments make me smile everyday so a big thank you to all you 100 people out there. I am here if you need any kind of help, support related to blogging or if you want to collaborate just shoot me a dm on instagram or email me and i’ll do whatever i can. Okay without any delay i’m going to tell you things that you should do before this year ends & they’ll help you recall the good & bad time.

Here are the things you should do before the year ends:
GRATITUDE:

Be grateful. Trust me this is one thing which will make you a better human being. Make a list of things that you are grateful for, don’t forget to add little things as well. If you want to stay positive amidst all the negativity, you should be grateful for all the things you have.

PLAN THINGS:
I am a kind of person who do think on the spot like I actually am not that organized or whatever you can say but it really helps if you like things organized. Make a list of things you still have to do & try to do them as early as possible. Make another list of things you want to do it achieve in 2018, maybe main points just to get an idea of what should you do first.

Islamic Planner Series

Quote Lovin

I’m  actually planning to buy one for myself!
SEE HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME:

Scroll through the year! You’ll find good & bad memories, focus on the good & let other things go because they made you a better version of yourself. Check what you have achieved in 2017 & what are the things that made you who you are & things you don’t want to repeat in next year. Go back to January & think about the things you did that you are proud of & write them in a notebook. Open the gallery in your phone and check all the photos you took, it’s kind of a therapy actually. Text your old friends or someone you miss while looking at the photos before the new year starts. Reunite with people you miss. Be the first to text them because this year’s gonna end & you don’t want to end your relationship with your family, friends. Righttttt?
WRITE YOURSELF A LETTER:

Write a letter to your future self. Whatever comes in your mind, just write it down. Be proud of yourself & let your words flow. I personally feel writing letters is more fun then making a video or a voice note. What do you think?

TREAT YOURSELF:

Loving yourself is very important factor. Give priority to yourself over anything else because you deserve it. Do things that make you happy. Eat alot, sleep alot & most importantly have fun. Do makeup or maybe read your favorite book once again or watch something & oh don’t care about other people because if you’ll love yourself, people will love you. 

Also don’t forget to share your blog post link related to new year in the comments below. I would love to check them out✨

Love & light!💛

What is inside my handbag!

Hi lovely people!

I decided to do a fun post before eid as I was tagged by some friends on Instagram  &  Twitter  to do a challenge named ” What’s inside my handbag”

I always choose small handbags over big ones as I don’t carry so much stuff with me so a small beautiful bag which is easy to carry always works. Want to see what’s inside it? Here it is:

• Wallet

I put all the necessary cards, keys( if any), money, pins and little things in it.

• Diary or a small notebook

This is always there like I love diaries.

• Body Spray

• Blushon/ face powder

Not always but sometimes I carry these with me as well.

• Mascara/ Eye liner

It’s necessary as you all know. lol

• Lip balm

I like my maybelline baby lips so this is one thing I like to carry with me wherever I go.

• Sunglasses

Who doesn’t like to wear them like who.

• Last but not the least my mobile.

Sometimes I add more things like Sunscreen, lotion etc 

It depends on the situation. Hope you enjoyed this post. 

I would love to know what’s inside your handbag.

Also Eid Mubarak to you all💕we will celebrate Eid tomorrow here in Pakistan. I pray that you enjoy every single moment of these blessed days. Remember me in your prayers! 

Love.x.

PAIN, not just a strong word.

Pain is not just a strong word. You can’t define pain in just a statement because it is different experience for every person. Pain can teach you to be hopeful and it can teach you to break all the rules. It can lead towards depression and insomnia. Pain, which allows you to forget everything else and you get close to Allah. Pain teaches you lessons but most importantly pain demands to be felt. Either you get what you want or you end up losing something in the end. It can be dangerous and it can be helpful but it depends on you, yes you that how do you see it. Do you want to stay in pain or do you want to get out of it, are you struggling in your life or you just sit and watch everything falls apart. You need to fix yourself first to get rid of PAIN. Yes it’s true that there are times when we must be hurt in order to grow, we must lose in order to gain, because some lessons in life are best learned through pain. But one has to get rid of pain because everybody wants to live a beautiful life.
It is a complicated phenomenon because pain according to you would be something else while according to me it would be something else. But one thing that is similar is it teaches us a lesson, it teaches us how to struggle, it makes us strong, it makes you look at the positive side of the life, which is a good thing but at the same time no one can ever forget the time period in which one has to go through so much pain. Pain according to me is a contcontradiction. You want to get rid of it but you feel trapped. It can be opposite as some people feel pleasure in it in various forms. You can’t share how you feel because it’s indescribable, at least for me. Like the world has came to an end or if not world then at least your life, the thought that you are going to die of pain gives you goosebumps and suddenly you feel helpless, breathless. We always compare pain to death and it’s hard to actually imagine it. It’s not just physical but mental illness results to a worst image because you can’t actually explain what you are going through whether it’s in the form of depression or just feeling of stress. Getting out of that pain is really really important according to me. There are medicines to get rid of physical pain but for mental pain it’s different. It kills you from inside. Yes I am saying it and it’s true that mental pain needs to be focused more as I see everyday in newspapers and social media that people are actually dying because of mental illness. We can do so many things to save people who are suffering from it. Why everybody is just ignoring this fact, why everyone is keeping their mouth shut, just because it’s not you? No this issue needs to get resolved as soon as possible. 

We together can actually do alot to save these people suffering from pain. 

Just spread kindness because this world already is full of hate. Just by talking to that kind of people will help them alot. As a psychology student, so far I learnt that you just have to listen to the person suffering from illness. Don’t give advices or things like that because the person sitting next to you might just wanted to talk to you without the fear of judgement you know. Spread kindness because it will not cost you anything but it will be helpful for people around you. Positive attitude is really important specially in a negative environment. 

I read this on internet and I feel like what pain actually is has been described very truly. I thought I should share it with you guys as well. Here it is

      

With the pain in your chest, you can’t stand anymore,

So tired you just want to fall to the floor,

Exhausted from smiling every single day,

No matter what the pain won’t go away.

Feel so hopeless, you just want to cry,

When no one can help you or even say why

The darkness took over the life you once had,

It left you so lonely, frightened and sad…

You thought this was it, things can get no worse

You are tired of fighting the eternal curse.

But each day gets harder, harder to bear,

When you think of future, you really don’t care.

Each day you wake up hoping it’s your last,

It’s raining today, dark and overcast…

The monster inside is the worst thing that’s happened,

More painful than anything ever imagined.

Still I live with the hope things will one day get better,

That this pain inside will not last forever.

–  Anonymous.

Hope never dies even in critical situations one has to be hopeful in order to survive. People suffering from pain are always hopeful that maybe in next minute their pain will go away. When there is no hope left or the person feels hopeless then they start thinking about death which is so hard actually.

I will write more posts on mental health in coming days as this is my field but for now we have to accept the fact that no matter what kind of pain it is, people suffer alot. We have to accept the fact that we actually focus more on physical health and neglect mental health. But now we have to stay united and write about this matter and raise our voices because this is all what we can do.
