Well… what a way to express life zest, I totally agree with most of your feelings… sometime life suck… and you just have to leave with it. As for me, the only regrets that I have now is all about how I a have wasted my life for someone else. I guess I have followed my mom’s footstep. Boy!!!! She was very serenity with my dad’s attitude, and it’s all just because she could not do anything else then being a house wife.
But it’s different with us, who have been surviving as any men. Our life practices even more, for we have to…. Take care of our house, cook and care for our kids, of all still go out there and make your money to support a family.
Now lifestyle has taken it turn, we need to focus on what we want. Seriously … One must be kidding me if they still, thinking to be married of to a rich men and be a house wife. Sure may be it does work for those pretty girls with red lip sticks just waiting to do anything without breaking their nails and for those who have a rich father that can get them married either with their power or mostly money.
I’m a lay person who doesn’t have much of anything, starting from my education, marriage, money; love and just thinking about growing old alone scare me.
So darling Fazi, my advice to you is start loving yourself and only do things for others if you enjoy doing it. Equip yourself will all you need to survive so you don’t have to depend on someone else. Gather knowledge and don’t stop… for it’s the true nature of life, with knowledge in the field of your interest your life will rich it true sensation.
In life, we may find it easy to allow ourselves to love and accept multitudes of other people, but when it comes to loving ourselves we're not as forgiving. In fact, we can be quite relentless in our pursuit of perfection. So, how then do you learn to put aside all the should and should not we face, and really begin a love affair with yourself?
The first step is to realize that you are somebody. You're a friend, someone's daughter or son, possibly a lover, an employee or employer, or maybe even someone's spouse. No matter how your role changes, you're still somebody. Nothing will ever change that.
The next step is to take time out to actually love yourself. In romantic relationships it is often said that true love is shown through actions, not words. Learn to apply this to yourself with the following ideas, and you'll be on the road to a lifetime romance, with yourself!
Dear Me...
Write a love letter to yourself. In the letter describe what you really like about you, and what you'd like to improve about yourself. Keep it in a special place you can refer to when needed.
Scheduling Time
Make appointments with yourself to do artistic or spiritually uplifting activities. For example, you might enjoy going on a picnic at the park, taking a tour through an art museum, or taking a walk in a secluded area.
The Finer Things In Life
Enjoy the finer things in life! Eat on your "good" dishes. Enjoy a candlelit meal. Listen to a favorite CD over champagne. Wear your favorite clothes. Treat yourself to unexpected present.
Enlighten Yourself
Try learning an enlightening hobby such as yoga or meditation.
Freedom Of Yourself
Give yourself freedom to make mistakes. Instead of questioning why you are doing, or may have done, something, just accept that you did it. Know inside that you'll handle it when you're ready to, and that it is okay to do just that.
Forgiveness
Forgive yourself for something in your past. Write a letter of apology that includes everything you might have done. Seal it in an envelope, and keep it somewhere private.
Day-By-Day
Live life day-by-day. Try not to worry about what will, or will not happen in the future. Or, what may, or may not have happened in your past. All things are created in the present. Remember, your future and your past are created by what you are doing right now this very moment.
