Nothing can be captured in the frame of time.. It's only the memories that last. Beauty wither away, and relationships stale. At every phase of life, we are surrendered by different people... Some on whom we depend and some who are dependable on us. Older dreams are replaced by the new ones, small ambitions with the mightier ones. At some point in time, we find ourselves embroiled in the dogma of what and how, without having any recourse to 'why' 'miffed in between. But with each passing day, we learn and grow.
Today, while I have turned 26, I am wondering why most of my counterparts twitch while acknowledging their age..why do I need to be worried of turning old?? When I see myself in the mirror, do I freak out seeing those two white strands in my hair, or do I swoon at the glimpse of sunken dark circles underneath my eyes..or the thought of increasing my spend on anti aging or wrinkle free creams makes me sick? Why do I receive uncalled advises for getting married just because I am surpassing the ideal age? I am struggling to unravel the mystery of beauty and age!!
It might not be so easy to accept that everything fades away...hair will turn grey, and someday dark circles and wrinkles will also surface.. But a thought and the memories instilled in your mind and heart will never shrivel up. A thought that you are beautiful and a memory that made you feel beautiful will be etched you in your pages of life. Be the writer of that book of your life. You are not beautiful because of your hair or skin.... you are beautiful because of your heart and soul. With each experience you may have in your life, your belief in yourself will grow. And this radiant belief will make you appealing!
I am reminded of one of my favorite tracks by Poets of Fall:
"Everything fades away come turning off the tide
For your love, I'm sorry
For your pain don't worry
Everything fades away..."
The only thing which is invincible is self belief.. rest everything fades away...
With this, I feel I am growing beautiful with each passing year !!!
Salute, superb. N yes u r

ReplyDeleteIndeed. .Everything fades away but I think our experiences in life stays with us forever some good some bad but they make the way to the future and how we perceive the world. Our experiences develop in life develop our self belief which we take with us till the end. Loved the thought especially your beauty is because of your heart and soul..
