I could let go of my anger

What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony?

If I could let go of something and if it brings harmony,  I would let go of my anger.

I used to think anger was necessary to get justice.

But now I think differently.

I’ve been in NIMHANS for over 2.5 months and my perspective has changed.

What anger does is make us think emotionally and not logically.

And when I get angry, the first thing I try to do is box breathing and the 5-4-3-2-1 method.

It helps to do some kapalbhati and bhastrika yoga pranayamas.

I think I have grown a lot in these few months.

So yeah if I had to let it go, I would let go of my anger.

And then think calmly.

Anger is the enemy and we need to let it go.

Thanks for reading this line. It means a lot.

I love electronic dance music (EDM)

What is your favorite genre of music?

I love EDM because it gives me pleasure and satisfaction.

I know it’s basically for dancing in the club and it’s not for strong emotions like sadness or calmness.

But I like it.

I’m a person who doesn’t like stimulating music. And EDM is not so stimulating as love songs or sad songs.

I love EDM because of the values it’s built on.

Values like-

  • Freedom
  • YOLO (you only live once)
  • Friendship
  • Love
  • Peace

Yeah so basically EDM resonates with me.

I’m pretty average at most things but I love them

On what subject(s) are you an authority?

I am not an authority on anything. But I love many things.

I love …

  • Playing badminton
  • Singing
  • Writing

But I’m average at them.

And the funniest part is I don’t even intend to make them into a career.

But I love them regardless.

I’ve been admitted to NIMHANS for the last 2 months and I have learnt many things about myself.

And I got many compliments for my singing and badminton skills.

And I think I might continue doing them.

Other than that I have a career to look after which is in data science.

I’m also average in data science.

I feel like I need to focus on one thing.

But I also feel like I have no sense of direction or clarity.

I don’t know where life will lead me.

But I … I’m confused I guess.

Anyways thanks for reading this sentence. It means a lot.

I want to teach value education I guess

What is the legacy you want to leave behind?

I remember all I still remember from my secondary school is the value education classes.

They taught me values like honesty, generosity, kindness.. and all that without any conditions.

So you be kind to everyone without any conditions whether they are good to you or they are kind to you.

I don’t care about leaving behind wealth for my future generations or some kind of cult or organisation that I want to last for as long as possible.

I just want to change one person’s life in a good way.

I just want to make them feel included.

Recently one friend/roommate of mine in the psyche ward said I was his best friend before he got discharged.

I mean I am good to everyone and I am kind and benevolent.

I make people feel included and I am friendly.

I’m grateful that my friend thought I was his best friend.

I mean this is what makes my life successful.

To be a good friend, a good helper, a good person,etc.

I guess my thoughts are all unorganised because I’m in a hurry and I’m kind of busy.

I got a broken skull at 5

Have you ever broken a bone?

After school hours, I was playing “pakda pakdi” with my friend Sudip and he accidentally pushed me at the door hinges of our classroom.

And I got hurt on the right side of my skull.

The injury marks are still there.

So a little amount of blood flowed I guess.

And I started crying.

I came home with my sister who studied at the same school on the regular school bus.

We informed our mother.

I was taken to the hospital with my mother.

And I remember a lot of people from my school came to the hospital before I got treated.

I mother held me in her arms as the doctor stitched my skull.

And a few weeks later the principal of the school and other teachers visited our home.

I mean they were good people. It was a good school.

The school’s name was “Vivekananda Academy School”.

Well I guess I wanted to share this with you.

Thanks for reading this line.

I prioritise both work and home life

How do you balance work and home life?

I guess I prioritise both work and home life.

To be honest I don’t have a job yet except blogging as a hobby.

So I guess I don’t have work.

But if we consider studying at work, then I am able to balance both I guess.

I study for very less time now because of my mental health issues. But if it was not there, i would have studied more.

But I manage my other duties well.

I’m in a mental health hospital now for treatment of my BPAD and I get to learn yoga and touch typing.

I mean I get to have a psychologist and psychiatrist talk to me every day and senior doctors guide me.

But I feel that I am lucky to get a safe space to learn time management.

Well that’s enough for this blog.

Thanks for reading this line! 😁

I guess I can think more critically about my negative thoughts

What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

I can questions why I think the way I think.

For example if I think that if a person doesn’t smile,they don’t like me, it’s not a conclusion I should jump to.

Maybe –

  1. They are having a bad day
  2. Maybe they don’t like smiling
  3. Maybe they don’t care
  4. Maybe they hate you

But the only truth is you don’t know the truth unless they say it to you.

If I can do this one thing, maybe I can be happier.

I love luxury brands but I’m simple

What are your favorite brands and why?

I love to go shopping at malls but I always keep in mind that I am not immortal.

I am just a mortal. I am just a human being who feels sad, happy, horny, apathy, peace, angry,etc.

The only thing I can’t do is ignore my feelings.

Sorry if this blog is becoming about feelings more than brands.

You know I feel infatuated all the time. And this breaks my heart.

Yes I’m heartbroken. Because I am a human being and am a “feeler” of emotions.

Thanks for reading this blog.
