Affairs lead you nowhere! Better be alone than in darkness
Thank you December
Never thought the cold could do better
Never thought my thoughts go numb
Never thought my dream would come alive
Never thought I could be living this way…
Oh, no no no I am not sad
December is going back
I am not
I am not sad…
Oh, no no no I am not depressed
Life is just testing me I guess
I am not
I am not depressed…

Let Joy Teach You – by Kate
Hi, this is the guest post shared by young and beautiful writer Kate Hurley. This piece of poem is about little things you need to observe to know what joy is. Allow yourself to experience the essence of joy and learn about life from it.
Let’s read her work together…
Let Joy Teach You – Kate Hurley
Yes, pain has taught you a thousand times.
The strength of your weary soul
A wild rose
Rooting down deep
Until it’s soft tendrils
Stretch up through the asphalt.
It hurts to push like that
But it’s what you have always done.
Yes pain has taught you a thousand times.
Sometimes a passionate clawing at the dirt.
A fierce determination to plant new seeds.
Sometimes a soft whimpering;
The brute of an army
To lift your body up from your bed
A fragile step towards the door
To feel sunshine on your face
When you thought there would never be sun again.
Yes pain has taught you a thousand times.
Show quoted text
In the kiss of a lover
Or the embrace of a friend
Hold on a little longer
Just like you have held on a little longer
So many times.
Let it teach you
When joy comes like a fury
In bread broken around a table with friends
Laughter like bullets
Piercing darkness
Let it teach you.
When joy comes in a whisper…
A kindness to yourself
As you look in the mirror
And you choose to see
The fading
As beauty etched from the strength of your days
Instead of a burden to bear
Swallow that joy up like water.
Let it teach you.
When joy comes in a letting go
Of controlling the past by regretting
Or controlling the future by worrying
When you see something beautiful
In this very moment
And you hold onto it’s gaze
Longer than you did last time
Enough to be here now
When you recognize that presence is not what you thought it was
A moment that you can never hold on to
But the truest moment that will never end…
When that joy comes
Let it sift you
Let it change you
And let it teach you
Yes pain has taught you
A thousand times
Now let joy teach you
A thousand times more.
A Blessing for Those that are Grieiving
Let Joy Teach You
Yes, pain has taught you a thousand times.
The strength of your weary soul
A wild rose
Rooting down deep
Until it’s soft tendrils
Stretch up through the asphalt.
It hurts to push like that
But it’s what you have always done.
Yes pain has taught you a thousand times.
Sometimes a passionate clawing at the dirt.
A fierce determination to plant new seeds.
Sometimes a soft whimpering;
The brute of an army
To lift your body up from your bed
A fragile step towards the door
To feel sunshine on your face
When you thought there would never be sun again.
Yes pain has taught you a thousand times.
In the kiss of a lover
Or the embrace of a friend
Hold on a little longer
Just like you have held on a little longer
So many times.
Let it teach you
When joy comes like a fury
In bread broken around a table with friends
Laughter like bullets
Piercing darkness
Let it teach you.
When joy comes in a whisper…
A kindness to yourself
As you look in the mirror
And you choose to see
The fading
As beauty etched from the strength of your days
Instead of a burden to bear
Swallow that joy up like water.
Let it teach you.
When joy comes in a letting go
Of controlling the past by regretting
Or controlling the future by worrying
When you see something beautiful

And you hold onto it’s gaze

Enough to be here now
When you recognize that presence is not what you thought it was
A moment that you can never hold on to
But the truest moment that will never end…
When that joy comes
Let it sift you
Let it change you
And let it teach you
Yes pain has taught you
A thousand times
Now let joy teach you
A thousand times more.

What to do when your loved one shouts at you?
#anger #howtodeal
What to do when your people get angry or shower anger on you?
At times, people we love are going through a certain phase of life that they can’t or don’t want to share. And due to which, they easily get anxious. Don’t take them lightly and don’t see that situation as an insult to you.
You don’t know, but sometimes something bothers them and they can’t tell until you ask them. So, whenever you get this opportunity to show love to your people, understand their anxiety and ask what is bothering them.
You never know how much they wait for someone to ask if they are okay. Just prepare yourself if they breakdown in front of you instead of complaining of “being vulnerable”.

Why We Are Meant To Be?
We always need someone in our life who just keep it moving without leaving. Who never gets bore of lengthy talks done by you, who always finds you when you are lost, who gives you space because he realises that you have a personal life.
Someone who just understands your silence and comfort you without saying “I am done with you”. Someone who never gets tired of loving you, even if you fail to love yourself. Someone who just see your flaws and still stay to kiss them.

Why Closure to Any Ended Relationship is Important?
Every ended relationship deserves a closure, and one should achieve it with responsibility. You may think that you don’t need any closure but the relationship that has ended (even years ago) still waits for it; even when you don’t. You are not getting it, right? Let me share a story.

Old December
You know, this is how a life is
You born, live, and get old
Just like the December
That comes with whitey, snowy cold
Eats up the heat and
Make sun lovable for everyone
But, we forget that December too
Gets old
The older December gives more chill
Like an old dream which is still hard to kill
But as I said it before
You born, live, and get old
Just like the December
Someday you may forget the date
Memories will too fade away
Just like December
This shall too pass away
And guess what?
Sun will melt all that snow on the shields
Your mornings won’t be colder enough
Enough to freeze you
In the moment
Like it used to before
Just like December
But hey, December too gets old
It soaks up the bonfire, rum, words
And gives nothing in return
Except the cold, dew, and icy wind
To make you realize the worth of Sun
Love the Sun, love the warmth and when you do
Decembers will come and pass like they used to
The nights will be surely chilling,
But this time, with a little comfort, hugs, and kisses.
And, you won’t hate the old December anymore.

What’s wrong with your intimate relationship?
What’s wrong with your intimate relationship?
Intimacy is a different concept of act of love that goes beyond physical realm. It is more like having emotional and mental sense of well-being in a relationship.
“A deeper connection with a person that demands firm understanding and appreciation of the other person is known as intimate relationship.”
An intimate relation includes a certain comfort level that seeks to meet the requirements and needs of both persons. If you are open and honest to your partner, then congrats, your intimacy is great. However, if you cover up things and hide most of your deeds then you need to worry about it because your relationship lacks in intimacy. If we say intimacy, we don’t mean to talk about a single act. Intimacy is rather an irreparable commitment that doesn’t change with bad or good days, and found in the lows and highs of relationships over time.
What’s wrong – If you think just sex can save your relationship
What’s true – Intimacy is beyond the physical needs. While sex can make the relationship more beautiful, intimacy doesn’t thrive in a relationship that starves for deeper connection. In an intimate relationship, couple has to fulfil emotional and mental needs of each other.
What’s wrong – intimacy is a priceless gift for lucky ones
What’s true – When we meet our partner’s need, it’s a sign of a healthy relationship. However, intimacy is different thing that can’t be bought or sold. Lavish trips, expensive gifts, and romantic dates cannot define a relationship as intimate relationship. You can create intimate relationship and it’s completely your choice.
What’s wrong – Intimacy is a fairytale thing
What’s true- Intimacy is real. All relationships have their lows and highs and intimate relationship stay despite the bad and good time. Intimate relationships are present on earth and if you know the true intimacy thing, you can understand and feel it.
Signs of an intimate relationship –
- You both spend time exploring each other’s interests
- Both of you take opinion of each other when making decisions
- Both of you support each other’s goals
- Both of you accept each other completely
- No matter how hard the fight, both of you make it a priority to communicate
- Both of you get comfortable while sharing dreams, goals, and fears
- Both of you treat each other with respect
- Both of you understand each other’s signals
If your answer is yes to most of these signs then you have a good intimacy level.
