Well, as we approach to celebrate India’s biggest festival, the festival of lights – Diwali, I took some time out in the middle of a busy morning to introspect (which I often do at regular intervals). Very similar to the “Diwali Safaai” done in our houses.
I was somehow feeling on the trough side of the mental wave for a fortnight or so. I searched various avenues to understand the happenings. I concluded the best pill to my mental health is writing. It has healed me from a way worse stage as well. As the data says, writing my 11th post only for the year 2022. Pretty bad, though. As I started to pen down my thoughts, the adrenaline rush calmed me down with a smile on my face.
I also came to understand, that for me, it’s always the talk or sharing that remains paramount – not only with my wife/parents or the immediate family but with my friends as well. Well, I spoke to my previous colleagues for a good few hours, who remain to be my good friends and healthy competitors as well. The result – suddenly positivity started flowing through my nerves.
One more findings was that I was surrounded by useless thoughts, which were practically of no use. I threw them out. Well, I felt nice. The motto to start writing was always to surround myself with motivation and move forward, no matter the hurdle.
This led to an inner peace and a thought that I need to rebuild my physical health as well. Started my 30’s with a second wave of pandemic, but have surely realised that it has to be Now in terms of renovating the physical capacity.
A bell always rings inside me and I know it’s the time. Whenever I have trusted my intuitions, I have always won the battle. Things are always inter-related, whether in terms of mental or the physical health or the happenings around you. That suggests a pattern. Identify that, if the bell rings, understand it’s the time.
There are always Highs and there are always Lows, at every stage, it’s just your perception of seeing the things that matter the most.
