It’s the Beginning!

It’s the beginning, of anything you want.

I read this line somewhere while surfing for some books on the internet, and that was the beginning for me.

I always did things I was expected to do, and I am even doing it today. In such a situation, I often hear people saying that I don’t have control over my own life and earlier there was even some point where, my little self, believed those people.

But then I grew up a little, and with time I realized something, I do have control over my life. I did and I will always have. I chose to do things that people wanted me to do because I did care. I cared about people close to me and I did things to make them happy. But I realized that among all this, what I want from life and how I want my life to be got packed in a stack of boxes, sealed tightly in a way that was never meant to be opened again.

And this pinned my heart. There were a lot of things I wanted to do in my life, and there were so many sunsets I hadn’t seen yet. I wanted to open these boxes. I wanted to explore and experience everything, but most importantly, I wanted to write. I wanted to write and inspire people, tell them stories about life, share my experience, encourage them to live this short life to the fullest, and I especially wanted to see them SMILE.

There’s some point in our life when we suddenly become conscious, and we know it’s time. It’s time to start something new, trusting the magic of a new beginning, and this was the point for me.

Life is too short to care about what people think of you, what really matters is what you think and how much you believe in yourself. People who truly love you will always be around you to support you, no matter what, and the people who don’t were never worthy of your time anyway.

With this, I decided to open my boxes and have a new start. I know people have many things to say about me and they always have. But to put all these aside, and focus on opening the boxes of mine, is all I need to have a fresh start.

And so, here I am taking the first step towards writing, sharing my own experiences with you all.

To all the people like me who really wish to open their boxes, it is time.
