What's your Ikigai ??

Easiness.

Good evening to you all 🌇 .

I know some of you had subscribed this Substack thing and some friends of mine nd my cousins had texted me and giving good compliments .

Some of you guys even liked those moon clicks . I had never thought my photography skill could be appreciated though😂. Anyway Thank you fr ur lovely and sweet words. 🙏😇As I had already written in my first text that I really wanted to maintain a diary type thing nd love to keeping journals. So I just tried it .

Hope you like this post as well ☺️.

In our life we go through a lot of experiences from birth to death.. Experiences make us stronger and mature .

We learn a lot from our experiences. These bitter sweet things make us complete. Not all the things we learn are good ,may be blunders sometimes but they teach us why should not we repeat them in future .

But still few times we come across some things throughout our journey which are worth remembering . Like some people , some stuffs , ur dream and passion , some music , may b a book , may be a dish u like , may be ur favourite dress , may be ur favourite jhumka ,may be a hug given by ur father , may be some good grades from school , may be your hostel room window or gazing stars from rooftops. ✨

Easiness means being comfortable. We all are human beings . We are born to behave in a social way .For me it's Being socially available towards others if they really need us & if we could help them anyhow in a positive way . By birth we have our family , parents , siblings , relatives, home , surrounding etc . These are the things which we can't choose. We are just given these by God almighty . But all these above things or persons are not our comfort zones. I have seen people who belongs to same household, having very close blood relation still unable to share even simple emotions . I'm sure you all have noticed this sometimes here and there too.

But many times even I have seen , when I'm walking on the road or in a public place if a stranger look at me and smiles then I smile back too. I don't know her / him. But still I do. Why ?? Some will say this is a courtesy or human tendency or a good behaviour. But I personally believe may be at that moment I hadn't feel any wrong intentions, any harmful or awkward behaviour or negativity from that Stranger. For me its this much simple . 😊

I'm a selectively extrovert . If I have to put a correct word fr my social interactions I would say I'm an ambivert. I don't have much friends . Hardly 3/4 closed ones. Those 3/4 when I first met them ( obviously not at the same time ) I had never thought I could be this closed to them ever . But as time passed by they became a part of my life . We all have this kind of people in our life . Whom we think we wouldn't talk ever , can't match with their vibes ever but unexpectedly we do . We can share our complicated thinking with them. They know us in a better way. They all have their separate places in our journey . We can't categories them . We just adore them fr being emotionally available fr us .

They can listen to our silence . They accept our flaws . They can feel that exact feelings what others can't . We feel relaxed when they are around .it's such a sweet emotion. 😌

But it's not always about some kind of boy girl relationships , love or marriage or anything like that .

Anything which attracts us and stays with us can be our comfort zone. People don't need to be partners always . They can be platonic as well.

Easiness is being urself when you are not alone or with a person or some stuffs , emotions or anything which can see u from ur point of view in a complete manner .

😇

It is true that nothing grows inside the comfort zone . One need to break her / his glass ceilings . But in some cases , some places we should stay just fr attaining that sweet gesture and emotions which is always harmonious .🤍

Similar in the case of our aim . What will be our life if we don't have a thing to achieve or to be helpful to anyone ??! World needs something from us and our believes should be strong regarding our life's journey and destination. Walking on a road has a charm but we should have that particular path to follow which leads to a point from where we can see the world from a point of view having our own liberal thoughts .☀️

In Japanese there is a term called - "Ikigai ". It means a person or thing which is so motivating that it gives us a purpose to live . It makes our life worthy . 🌝
