Why now? Why now?

Do I really have to do this?

Is that what I need?

Can I choose not to?

Will it be safe?

These are some of the questions that may pop for some of you while talking to someone. Opening yourself all out there not only makes you feel vulnerable but scared about safety at times.

The details may contain feelings of hurt and sometimes remind you of memories of the past. However, sometimes it’s a good idea to let it out and empty your bucket. It could be to anyone – your friend, therapist, partner, or family. It’s not necessary to share everything but somethings.

World is a lonely place when there is no one to share your hearts out. Communication is very important and integral to all communities. It is not limited humans but for everyone that exists in nature.

Happy weekend!

More than 370 million indigenous people spread across 70 countries worldwide. Indigenous defined as – any group of people native to a specific region.

Indigenous Peoples own, occupy, or use a quarter of the world’s surface area. They safeguard 80 percent of the world’s remaining biodiversity.

Here are 5 lessons we should learn from Indigenous Peoples –

🌳 Grow strong relationships with not just community but nature.

🌳 Money does not define a quality life.

🌳 Embrace and be content with what you have.

🌳 Express gratitude and conserve the nature.

🌳 Make peace a priority and dance to the music of nature.

Here is a ted talk by an indigenous person from Amazon, Brazil and a beautiful movie Te Ata , a true story of a Chickasaw storyteller available on Netflix to understand about indigenous peoples.

Be loving and kind toward the gatekeepers of nature. 💚

Quotes on Happiness by Ruskin Bond

Ruskin Bond is a renowned contemporary Indian writer of British descent. Famously known for his children’s books. The little green book of happiness is nothing short of a treasure. It’s a keeper and one book which makes you feel better just when you need it. Happiness is as exclusive as your coffee. If you stay and keep at it, it may get easier. Savour those moments, for there is no reverse in the reality.

Here are 5 quotes from the book that I absolutely love-

💚 Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. – Thich Nhat Hanh

💚 Sometimes there is greater joy in gazing at a mountain than in climbing it.

💚 Don’t let one cloud obliterate the whole sky. – Anais Nin

💚Money often costs too much.—Ralph Waldo Emerson

💚 Happiness is as exclusive as a butterfly, and you must never pursue it. If you stay very still, it may come and settle on your hand. But only briefly. Savour those moments, for they will not come in your way very often.

You can find books by Ruskin Bond here.

Happy weekend readers! 📚
