Catching up with you

Been months since I poured my heart on this blog, I was thinking that I never wrote a post in 2021 but so glad that it was proved wrong. So does it mean that since February I haven't poured my heart to anyone and not even myself? Wrong! Surprisingly, I did communicate with people but …

Advice on getting advice from others.

Your life and my life are very different from one another, even if we lived under the same roof or worked in the same place it still would be different. There might be some things at one point which will make you feel that we are similar or we're relatable yet that feeling doesn't last …

How time flies

People who were introverts during their childhood or in their teenage years have my whole heart's sympathy because if you've entered the glorious 20s or any other decade you've missed those years where you could've gotten away with silly mistakes. Others would've spared you by saying you're a kiddo it happens. That's not the case …

When your mind wanders

With the brand new year of 2021 some people might be following the "new year new me" motto which I was thinking to do that but honestly speaking every single second that is passing away is making us all new to this world. Yet many of our concerns and worries remain the same and maybe …

Side effects of adulting

As you all know or must've heard before, an adult's life is not easy. Which is true and I completely agree with it. But it's this feeling which nags me- when did this happen to me? How come my life has fast forwarded to the time when I'm a graduate and struggling to keep my …

Stay strong 2020!

When January 2020 started, many of us had different plans for ourselves but, as the year unfolded, it was about surviving. Not knowing whether we'll see each other again, or walking in a crowd without fear of getting infected with the Coronavirus.Now we're about to say goodbye to September 2020 and if you're reading this, …

You need a break!

I know the pandemic has changed the definition of the new normal for all of us and adapting to the new changes takes some time, even for our mind to make adjustments. In between many of us are loosing jobs or getting furloughed. The desperation of making the ends meet for us is real. So …

Catching the sun

Somethings that you really want in your life are hard to get. But you strive to get them and run towards it because daydreaming is past the stage for you. But the longer you run, the more distance between you and your aspirations appears. Along the way, you fall and get up. In between you …

A note to my own blog

Dear SarahThinks, It feels nice to come back to you and, I'm grateful that you always let me pick from where I left, sometimes the time includes a few days, weeks and sadly even months. Now, don't you start thinking that you don't mean much to me? On the contrary, you mean a lot to …

It’s okay to struggle

Many of us have been taught by our society that a person is only valuable if he/she is successful otherwise you are not fulfilled or completed. It's goes on like a broken record till your mind is full of it and then guess what? It's you who start singing it to yourself. What's surprising is …

Why do you complain?

It's a human nature to complain but for what you're complaining sets you apart from others. I used to complain a lot in high school days. I can't seem to find any topic on which I didn't fail to cover in my list of tantrums. Most of them were useless and petty ones. Maybe it …

What do you want from life?

If someone were to pop this question to me in a middle of a conversation I would take a bit of time to answer that because let's be honest here there is no definitive answer to that question and will never be for a lot of us. Sure after a few seconds of thinking, I …

     

Were you used and thrown away?

Some people use you like a tissue paper, use you, and take advantage of you and then just throw you away. And you wonder what's wrong with you but have you ever thought what's wrong with them to be using you in the first place? Probably not but you should question it to yourself if …

What somedays feel like

It's amazing how one day you feel great and then the next day it's not so great after all. Then you start feeling emotionally low and there might not be an apparent reason at times or maybe there are many to pinpoint at one cause of sadness would become difficult. We all have days like …

Life is to be celeberated

Remember I posted Life is Unfair post and then this post's title will likely have the effect of irony. But the irony is beautiful in every piece of literature...it brings flavor to that piece of work and so does in life too. About a few years ago or you could say in the pre coronavirus …

Blank…Topic for today

Does it ever happen with you, that you got a really cool idea about what your topic can be and all the content you will write start flashing before your eyes and you're really happy with it? But wait while your thinking flash was happening, you were busy in something, and though after finishing this …

So close and yet so far away…

So close and yet so far away...Who knew that a line from the lyrics of my favorite song from childhood would turn out to be so relatable, I must say after quite many years down the road. It may possibly be true that it is all very close just a jump away and you will …

Anxiety is a struggle

It's amazing how once you're doing rather well for yourself and then very slowly you start to fall without at first instance realizing that where you are falling deeper is in the hands of anxiety. It need not be for the greatest reasons according to others but it certainly is bothering you to the point …

The Facade

  Don't ever portray that a part of your life is good when in reality it's far from it. Don't ever try to build a castle of lies to showcase the world how everything is fine when it's not. Truth is if a relationship is toxic to the point where you're getting abused mentally and …

The supression on oneself

Have that mental breakdown of yours which you were trying to suppress it for so long. Let those tears flow like a river in which you were dampening their flow. You are strong and but you deserve to feel low and come face to face with your emotions. You have every right to exhibit your …

Life is unfair.

There are people who will fight for you against the whole world, protect you in whatever ways they can...will save you in your lowest points of life. But the irony is, not all of these people stay strong when it comes to protecting themselves and standing against the world for their own rights. I wonder …

Super Humans don’t exist.

Not too long ago I used to think that there are some humans who have this special power of enduring whatever life throws away at them and they'll still be smiling while cleaning up other's mess too and they also never complain about how bad their life is treating them. That's something, right? We all …

Quarantine from an introvert’s perspective.

Today I'm going to write this post from my personal thoughts on quarantine and how it has affected or is affecting my life. Firstly I'm a confident person and have a strong introvert side too, so going out and about has always been on my own terms and conditions. Chit chatting makes me tired at …

You will get through this!

The world is in lockdown and things no longer function like the way they used to. In a lot of countries its more than a month that people are in quarantine and practicing social distancing which in turn has affected a lot of careers. You're physically restricted to get out but mentally your mind wanders …

Victims of abuse in quarantine

It's a sad situation for all of us that we are in lockdown and while most of us are in quarantine some public workers have to go out every day to ensure that we can stay inside our homes safely. In some countries, people have still not taken up this matter as seriously as it …

A life full of uncertainty

In a life full of uncertainty and anxiety it's difficult to imagine what the future holds for us, I mean a lot of us had plans, different plans for our lives, visions for 2020 and of course who can forget the new year resolutions and traveling plans. Not all of us saw it coming that …

High Expectations or Wishful Thinking?

Of course, with age comes grace even in the kind of wishful thinking you have for yourself. The older you get, the more you understand that having high expectations can be traumatizing for you at times. Sometimes these high expectations from life can even be unrealistic and often don't get fulfilled in the ways you …

What is even there in life?

Life feels better when you surround yourself with love, friendship, least expectations, and acceptance.  We all are struggling somewhere and even are trying to overcome our problems. But at times stress, anxiety or depression can make your problems feel larger than life. What can make you feel lighter and brighter is to start observing not …

This too shall pass…

  Life is not easy, but the people you have to deal with makes it even harder. It all comes down to surviving. I'm sure you must've heard about the theory of survival of the fittest. Well, it's true in all manners. Not just physically but the actual game-changer is the fittest mind. If you're …
