Life Changing Encounters
THE BARBIE SENSIBILITY!!!!
There are people who tend to question my sensibility and sensitivity, keeping in consideration my absolutely undying love for Barbie Dolls. To add to the fury-my Mom nicknamed me Nanhi....
Almost all my life, from teenage to twenties and now in the thirties- I have struggled to get out of the ' Aww So Cute' tag and tried hard to be taken seriously. Sometimes it felt as if a child 8 years to me has a maturity level higher than me.
I am confused what are you trying to say when you utter- OMG you don't look your age. YOU want to either taunt me that I don't have maturity level I should be having. OR you are complimenting me for my maintenance. :D
I have a serious objection and a point to make. It is in defense of all the people like me- who struggle to be taken seriously :-D
Is it important to look mature or is it important to act mature.
Also I have a theory- Principle Seriously a Tested Theory that works absolutely magically for me. So here is some gyan from a girl you might feel is immature :D
Be Authentic- When you do not try to purposely put across any image of yourself in front of people. You come out with a genuinely attractive and likable personality. Believe me its easy to fake it, but it is easier to be what you are. Thankfully I have garnered real friends by being real me. My stint with Toastmasters made me meet a lot of people and I am happy that they all gave me a confidence that they appreciate me the way I am.
Be Creative- Yes be creative and never fail to find time for a hobby, something that you love.
Be Expressive- Try to express yourself as often as you can. Share your love, feelings, affection.
Don't Bury your Past, Don't Dig it too!!!
The truth is if something is close to your heart, it will always be. If something has hurt your soul, it will always be in your thoughts, don't make an attempt to desperately forget it. An acceptance of a failure or betrayal is the best way to come over it. Bad people come in our lives to give us a lesson. Good people come to give us memories.
BE THE WAY YOU ARE
Finally Someone I met while a journey on way back to India from US, and someone a tad unknown made me understand something , a casual conversation that lasted few hours helped me realize something really important. BE THE WAY YOU ARE BUT DON'T TRUST OTHERS ARE ALSO BEING WHAT THEY ACTUALLY ARE. The person knew nothing about me, was not aware of the credentials of my life - said Be the way you are, and be alert - Not everyone thinks and says the same thing.
So here is a lesson = When you are trying to be simple and spilling your heart to anyone, be aware- your words can be twisted, re-quoted and used against you. Remember- when someone else quotes you= only your words are represented not your thoughts and intentions. So be wary of the people who pretend to be your friends but use your words to suffice their means.
So this is for all the people and specially the girls like me, who could have been struggling with their overall life. Having a tiff between their looks, imperfections, you need not prove anything to the world.
* NO need to jump into skinny clothes or wear shapewear to look thin :D
* No need to use the FAIR & LOVELY to look fair-
* No need to just post quotes from philosophers to look mature, if you feel a beauty tip is more interesting post it.
*NO need to pretend to be what you are not or hide what you are
JUST TAKE A CHILL PILL!!!!!!! Barbies or Bonhomie Nail Polish or Novel! Its your life and just live it how you like
SO you can love BARBIES, but also have serious discussion on WOMEN Rights
