All of us have a dream right?
In order to achieve this dream, some of us work their butt off like there is no tomorrow.
Some don’t even care to spare 5 minutes of their time to have a meal.
Others, keep rushing to finish their work that they completely forgot to sleep.
In a way, it’s good to be passionate towards your goals.
But I keep wondering what the point of working too hard and getting sick later on? Is it worth it?
Even when you succeed in achieving what you aim for, do you really think you can enjoy your victory while being unhealthy? Probably not.
So please please please! Take care of yourself.
Life is all about balance. Working hard? That’s great. But don’t do that while ignoring yourself. Stay safe.
There is more unexpected joy waiting for you to embrace.
Sincerely me,

Moving Forward
They ask how to move on,
He says doing this. She says doing that.
What do I have to say?
Forgive yourself.
Wanna know the reason as to why you are stuck in the past?
No. Not because of ‘it hurting too much’ bullsh*t.
And definitely not because of ‘ I’m too weak to face all of this right now’ nonsense either.
Neither is the ‘ healing take time’ concept that everyone seems to believe.
You are.
The reason you seem so oblivious is you. Yourself.
Unknowingly, you are blaming yourself right?
Wondering what you did wrong to subject yourself to such a heartbreak.
Or maybe even thinking that your imperfections are the cause of all the disasters that happen to you in your life.
Guess what honey? You are completely wrong!! They ain’t.
Life happens. It’s completely out of anyone’s control. Change your plan as you might, if the universe has another plan set for you, even if you don’t like that plan, it’s still gonna happen.
So how about start forgiving yourself. Forgive your imperfections. Forgive yourself for not being able to be who you dream yourself to be. Forgive yourself for not being able to achieve everyone’s expectations of you.
Let go of all the self blaming. Let go of all the self doubt. Just let go. Whatever that is holding you up from moving forward, let it go. And you might be surprised how good that makes you feel.

Be Real!!
Some people….
“Why do you like this stuff!” or “Why do you dislike that stuff?”
“Why are you eating this!” or “Why don’t you eat that?”
“Why are you wearing this!” or “Why don’t you wear that?”
Helloooo….
Do you think they were you or what?
You can’t expect people to like what you like and hate what you hate.
Get real here. They ain’t you. They’ve their own person. They can do whatever they want. No need to comment on it or point it out if what they did didn’t tickle your fancy.
N not everything you thought needs to be said aloud.
It might be hard enough for them to struggle with their own choice. They don’t need you to add more.
Stop being so full of yourself. Get over it.
We’re different for a reason.
Different doesn’t make us weird. Differences make us whole. You can’t expect to complete a puzzle with the same piece every time do you?

Reality of Love
Love.
They say love is joy.
They think love is happiness.
They told you love is supposed to be beautiful.
But does it really?
In a fairytale..maybe.
Yes, true love is something beautiful to experience. Something that is precious to being through.
But it does not always have to be.
When it hurting you, when it getting difficult,
Doesn’t mean it’s not real.
Because love itself is life.
So just like our life that is not always beautiful and dandy, so do love.
Sometimes you get hurt.
Other times you feel over the moon.
It is supposed to.
That’s how you learn. That’s how you grow.
That’s how the universe works. After all it is not up to us to decide what happens next. It’s out of human control.
So stop being afraid you might get hurt because of it. Instead, start to embrace it while you can.
Sincerely me,
Az.Ra
Family
What common in family;
Saying something awful to the parents?
‘It’s not a big deal. They understand’
Doing something hurtful to our family member?
‘They will be fine. No worries’
Start a fight over something dumb?
‘No need to apologize. They will forgive us anyway’
This is where our mindset about family messes up big time I tell you.
We thought as a family member, we can do as we pleased and they will always accept us no matter what. But we completely forgot that they are still human beings. With feeling and emotion.
Being a ‘family’ doesn’t give us a free pass to treat them to our heart’s content. It only gives us a free ticket to love them unconditionally.
Sincerely me,

Tomorrow’s still an Option
Maybe now you’re hurt. But nobody says tomorrow you won’t heal.
Maybe now you’re scared. But nobody says tomorrow you can’t be brave.
Maybe now you’re sad. But nobody says tomorrow you won’t find your happiness.
Maybe now you’re struggling. But nobody says tomorrow it can’t become much easier.
Maybe now you’re alone. But nobody says tomorrow someone won’t appear in your life.
And maybe now what you really need to do is believe that everything will be alright when the time is right.
After all, everything will be alright in the end. And if everything’s not alright, it’s not the end.
Sincerely me,

Perfect?
We are all too caught up with the idea of perfection that we can’t see anything beyond that.
Everyone always says nothing is perfect.
We are quite aware of that.
But we all know deep down we still wish for that perfection.
Secretly, we all dream of having a perfect life.
We search for the perfect partner to get married with.
When we have our partner, we hope to have a perfect wedding.
And then we wait for perfect timing to do that.
Just like that the list goes on with everything our whole life.
It consumes us and when everything starts crashing down and doesn’t go ‘perfectly’ as we plan, we keep thinking that life sucks big time. When really it’s just you that decided to make it seem like it.
All this mindset about perfection shouldn’t exist at all. Everyone should know there is no such thing as perfect. The word itself doesn’t sound right.
Why not just replace it with the word right instead?
For example, instead of saying ‘I have a perfect wife’, why don’t you say ‘I have the right wife’.
It is much more meaningful when you put it that way.
Even if it is not ‘Perfect ‘, it is still ‘Right’. See what I am trying to say? Much better don’t you think?
Now I leave it to you to decide.
Sincerely me,
Az.Ra
Poison Assumption
They were scared of expectation so they shut you down, but you thought they were running to get away from you.
They want their peacefulness by being alone someday, but you thought they were trying to ignore you.
They never express their feelings to begin with, but you thought they probably don’t feel anything.
They worried about moving forward in the bigger world, but you thought they were just being comfortable stuck in the present.
They lost their words in the moments, but you thought they didn’t have anything worth saying.
They got awkward sometimes, but you thought they were getting uncomfortable around you.
They act differently according to the person they are with, but you thought they were pretending to be someone else.
What you never really thought is what you see, hear and think sometimes not what is really happening at all.
Assume Nothing
Because it will make you blind from seeing the truth.
Sincerely me,

What Goes Around Comes Around
We keep wondering how they can smile so big, we don’t seem to realize that was their way to hold themselves together from crying in tears.
We keep wondering how they’re so confident in front of others, we don’t realize that they also hide their shaking hand behind their back when nobody sees.
We keep wondering how they can have so many friends in their life, we don’t seem to realize that only a few were the real ones.
We keep wondering how they’re so successful in their career, we don’t realize that they also had to sacrifice their family time just to complete loads of work.
We just keep wondering so we forgot the fact that everything in life comes with prices. When you get some, you lose some.
You might miss the brightness of the sun during the rain, but you got to see the colourful rainbows after that instead.
Just because you don’t get what you wish doesn’t mean you won’t get what you meant to have.
Sincerely me,

Grateful Work Wonder
When you angry with your parent because they give you advice for your own good,
Somewhere in this world, someone that loses their parents wishes they still have one.
When you complain because your parent forget to bought your favourite food,
Somewhere in this world, someone has to fast all day because they don’t have food to eat at all.
When you think life don’t treat you fair just because you can’t get your dream car to show off unlike your friends,
Somewhere in this world, someone has to walk miles in the heat just to buy groceries.
And maybe when you stop counting what you don’t have and start appreciating what you already got, you will see how lucky you already are.
