“Your life is an island separated from all other islands and continents.
Regardless of how many boats you send to other shores or how many ships arrive upon your shores,
you yourself are an island separated by its own pains,
secluded in its happiness”

Wonderful thought. People usually start to compare themselves to others and how beautiful someone else ‘island’ is. They get stuck in this blackhole, unable to find their way out. They don’t realize that what other people are doing in life is not a measure of their own worth in this world. They do not know what it took to build that island. Well done 🙂

When I like someone writing, I like to look at what they started from. Only then you can know how they got to what they are today 🙂

That is how it should be. If you build yourself up from bottom instead of just aiming to take a leap to top, you will be able to build yourself back up in future if you happen to fall down to where you were. If you just leap to the top, it will be extremely hard to build yourself back to the top because you have no experience. Our life would be chaos if we just enter this world as an adult skipping our childhood and teenage years.

I am glad you think this way, it all came from the negativity around me. We only see the stars during night and that is what I try to do. Build myself up from my failures.

Now it makes sense, garv turned out to be my name. Garv ki kyun nahi baat, we should all be proud of who we are.
