Take the time.........

The last session of the day....was lovely...and yet the one thing that kept ringing like bell in my head was......It's usually about feeling special, feeling loved. We do ask ourselves invariably " when was the last time I felt special or loved by someone". It's a beautiful feeling, when the soul feels appreciated, loved, hugged, felt special etc. But we end up looking for this feeling outside us, we start looking for happiness out there. For a lot many, it's acceptance that this is the life it is meant to be and it's more like resigning to fate. And one fine day...this feeling of deep emptiness crawls up to the core of our being. It's absolutely not out there...its all within us.

The day you start loving yourself....the feeling of special-ness ,  will sprite your life up.   Now the question is...do you really Take the time to love yourself, to love the way you are, without judging. The mind has been conditioned from early childhood, to look for happiness outside...it can be a person or an object. You are made to believe, this is what will make you happy, but Ironically in the process you stop  loving yourself. Honestly ask yourself, when was the last time you acknowledged your feeling, and expressed them the way you wanted it to be expressed.

Taking the time ...requires effort...and it takes time but more importantly  you have to take the time to do what you want, to tell what you want, to express yourself. With the busy lives that you lead, doing what you love doing or doing what is needed to be done..or simply doing nothing.....you get so caught up , that rarely do you take time out to appreciate your life, to love yourself or others whom you value in your life.

Taking the Time...is one aspect...that is categorically taken for granted, and yet is one of the most important aspect of our life.  I know the list is endless and wouldn't fit into a single post....But if you just put down the list it is this...

Take the time to come home to yourself everyday,
Take the time to love yourself, to express love

Take the time to know yourself, 

Take the time to acknowledge your feelings, 

Take the time to relax,
Take the time to breathe, take the time to feel the calmness within

Take the time to know someone well, to appreciate the people you love
Take the time to listen, take the time to hear
Take the time to laugh

etc....

There is nothing that is most important or least important...it is what it is....., cause each and every person is at different situation, facing different circumstances in their lives at present. 

So is it so difficult to take the time out.....No...it isn't at all....It's only when you, WILL to do it....I mean when you just decide to take the time out...When was the last time you looked at yourself, I mean taken a real good look. and you noticed how wonderful you do smile, and the happiness is shown in your eyes. If you just take the time to notice , you will definitely find something beautiful . For a moment just stop thinking what others think about you. You simply Take the time .....to appreciate what is in you, , even with your flaws , take the time to love yourself. Take the time to know yourself, see the beautiful person that is there in you. Yes....I get to hear this often...." it's been such a long time that someone said something nice, something so beautiful, I miss those moments" ......Hey Sweets!....know one thing..you will be loved for this lifetime and beyond, for now take the time to love yourself first!

Take the time to enjoy the moment that is , that is the NOW...in your life.
