Hey Lovies…
Happy Sunday y’all.
I was going to share this random thought of mine, a post that I tagged “GIRLS, KNOW THY SELF”. But you won’t believe I clicked on a wrong button and everything disappeared. I couldn’t cry. And so, I decided to post this instead.
I saw these beautiful pictures on Facebook and I had this nostalgic feeling.
Most adults often like to write off cartoons as childish and immature creations, it can sometimes be surprising to see how many cartoon characters have uttered beautiful words of wisdom while entertaining children with their heroics and antics. But I think it’s safe to say that they’ve got some excellent role models.
Beautiful things happen when you step out of your comfort zone. For a long time I fixed my self into this particular box and I had always assumed the box was for me. Just this box. But then, I realized I had to stretch and leave the box. And it’s been one of the best decisions ever. I could go on and on, but truth is beautiful things happen when you step out of your comfort zone, to the realm of the unknown… You never know what could be waiting.

I can never get tired of Princess Elsa.
How can I explain to you the sheer joy of letting go? Letting go of the hurt, letting go of the pain, letting go of the sadness, just letting go…
A certain wise man, Walter Shakespearean Ude, once said :
“Sometimes things don’t work out the way we want in life, not always by our own doing….Sometimes, it’s just safer and better to pull an Elsa and let it go and move to the mountains and build an ice castle while singing a number one hit and getting all sexy in the process.”
You just have to let go….
You will find that it is necessary to let things go ; simply for the reason that they are heavy. So let them go, let go of them. I tie no weights to my ankles.

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience – Eleanor Roosevelt.

No one. Absolutely no one has the button. You have the button. You have the key. No one can define or label you. Your only limit is your soul. Expand your mind today and watch your self soar – Adriel.
*
It’s in the heart. It’s in the simple things. It’s in the smile. It’s in the beautiful words we say. It’s the strength of your heart – Adriel
*
The past?! It hurts. You’re in the present, laughing and living and in a moment, your mind races back to the hurt, the pain, the betrayal, the sadness. And then you find yourself stuck. But you know it sucks to remain in the past, you know it’s messy. That’s when you decide to RUN and LEARN because you know, that’s the only way.
*
That’s what I thought. I melted for so many in the past and I forgot about myself. I abandoned myself. And so this is it : MELT FOR YOURSELF FIRST BEFORE YOU MELT FOR OTHERS. i.e ; YOU HAVE TO FALL HOPELESSLY IN LOVE WITH YOURSELF FIRST BEFORE YOU CAN BE ABLE TO “MELT” FOR OTHERS.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without – Gautama Buddha.
*
Because some infinities and bigger than some infinities….
*
Be yourself darling, who else is better qualified?!
*
You have to keep moving forward.
You must make a decision that you’re going to move on. It won’t happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life.

Hopefully, I’ll figure out a way to publish the post I really wanted to publish.
Have a very beautiful week!
Love xoxo

Oh my God, I LOVE this post. So much wisdom and truth packaged under the comic cover of ‘children’s TV’.
Embracing life outside your comfort zone.
Letting it go.
Appreciating the risk called life.
Taking a bigger leap every time you bounce on the springboard of life.
Having a large heart
Learning from your past hurts.
Melting for yourself.
Nurturing your inner peace.
Understanding that the sky is not your limit.
Knowing that you have to keep swimming.
Thank you, Adriel. And may you locate your missing post.

The missing post isn’t missing: it’s in your mind, in your brain substance. You can access it there in the remotest area where it’s sitting quietly and pull it out.
