|101 Notes to an innocent heart|
#90 Dear innocent heart,
How does this happen? How come we are back to square one even after surviving so much than words could ever describe? May be, that's what life is all about? We fall, We rise! We die, We live... Crafting the story with the passing moments, days, months, and years.

The journey from the tears to the last smile took everything. I wonder, how the tinkling of your heartbeats ache to whisper a new tale... witness a new spring... And, feel what it's like to drench in the rains all over again. Just be you... Who knows, where & how you will find the reason you're questing day & night... What is it that keeps you alive? What is it that left for you to discover? What is it that left to conquer over?

Don't forget, you must breathe as a new bud, awaiting to bloom with every rising day and learn to rest peacefully, dreaming again to touch the moon & stars.

#89 Dear innocent heart,
Uh should I still call you innocent? It's hard. Knowing that, I witnessed you dying with every single heartbeat. I don't know how much innocence or even, life is left in you. It's scary!
Nonetheless, I still feel 'hope', 'a ray of hope' flickering inside you. Listening to me with fading heartbeats.. Thousands & thousands of questions are buried asking, why? Looking ahead, you ask, 'How? How will you make it?'
The whirlwind of feelings make you anxious. Wait, the journey won't be over until I see your victorious smile, the same smile the whole universe could fall in love with.
Life broke you again into more pieces than I could gather. The same life is beating & dying inside you, begging you to 'Live', 'Just Live'.
Feel the beauty of rising sun & calmness of sprinkling moonlight. Catch a few stars, a few moments, a few memorable heartbeats
where you're truly, 'You!'
Who knows? The universe might come down to embrace you, the sky might rain poetry for you & the flowers might bloom again with the magic of your soul.
Don't forget, you've to take every step with hope, faith, love, patience & life, all born again from your ashes.

#88 Dear innocent heart,
We've come a long way from where we started, isn't it? I want to scold you & embrace you simultaneously. Why? Why do you always put others before you?Perhaps that's what makes you 'special'. Would you listen to me once? Choose yourself, please. Be there for others but hold yourself with the warmth of kindness too.
Shift the focus & observe, where your life is heading to. Deep down you know what is right & wrong. So, Fight for yourself. Fight for your dreams. Fight to cover the distance between 'who you are' & 'who you aim to be'.
You owe yourself this much. You owe yourself & the supreme for this beautiful blessing of life.
Whenever death knocks on your heartbeats, I desire to see you smiling gratefully that yes, you lived a life worth living over & over again. You carved your name on the sand of time forever & ever.
Oh, what a blessing would it be for my soul to see my words guiding you through the dark, holding you when you're about to fall & cheering for you along the soft gales till the end.

Don't forget, you must last as a shadow of love, sunshine of life & ever so soothing petrichor emanating after the first rain!

#87 Dear innocent heart,
How life is drizzling & sparkling along the moments passing by!
What have you been waiting for? Where are you lost? It's time that you break away the chains that hold you back & free yourself from the baggages of past & worries of future.
If you carefully observe, today is the opportunity..the long awaited chance to make a wish come true..To smile the way you dream to..To live the love gifted by life.. To just be yourself..To sing, dance & write the story of your heartbeats..
We can't change what's gone and simply unaware of what's lying ahead of us. But perhaps, we can hold, cherish and savour the present as a blessing for a lifetime & more.
Promise me, you will stay true to yourself.. You will always learn to smile through the tears.. You will find a way to give a lasting meaning to your tinkling heartbeats..This soft voice of your breaths & beats are a reminder that come what may, nothing is over!

Don't forget, you must hold the hand of life and walk ahead step by step to your destination. Everyday is a new beginning, a new chance to live the life, you dream of!

#86 Dear innocent heart,
Sometimes you miss the parts of you, you're leaving behind. I don't know what it would be like to stay where you're today but the breeze appears to be winking at you, asking you to flow along to sing the unsung melodies of love, to dance on the lost songs of life.
Isn't it strange, we came this far yet a part of us remain unsatisfied, a few heartbeats are aching to beat on their own rhythm.
How long are you planning to hold back? How long would you cage the dreams in the eyes? Don't you have any responsibility towards yourself? Shouldn't you fulfill the beautiful wishes of your heart? Once, just for once, shouldn't you live for yourself? Feel, what it's meant to be alive? This 'time' belongs to you. Every single moment belongs to you!
Why not wish upon a star to gift your eyes, new dreams; your soul, the sunshine and you, an eternal glory?

Don't forget, you must live upto the expectations of the reflection staring back from the mirror and fulfill the promises, you made to yourself!

-

Its' not about being emotional,
But understanding everyones' emotions.

Its' not about being smart,
But knowing when to act smart.

Its' not about show off,
But feeling grateful for all you have.

Lastly, its' not about love,
But the respect, you seek,
In your eyes as well as others'.

-

Live to express, not to impress... And, yes, if there's anyone whom you should really try to impress then it's YOU!
What matters is, how far did you travel by the end of the day? How much glitter did you add in the journey of life?
Did you make someone smile? Did you embrace someone or, perhaps, yourself with kindness?

Yes, some goals might be clear to you and few remain blurry but it's okay! A nap or short break might help you clear this fog of confusions.

Sometimes you just have to be... the true version of yourself. It's absolutely okay to feel anything. Emotions are beautiful. But go along this flowing wave of zephyr. Do What's necessary.. What you really should... What your heart wants... What others said, you never could.

~ Show the whole cosmos and above all yourself, that
it's only YOU who CAN!

-

It's beautiful to give wings to your imagination,
But you know, what's far more beautiful?
What's truly magical?
To let your wings born again after being burnt into ashes... The ashes no other could see... The pain of scars only you could feel.
The process takes time. The rebirth takes time.
Just the way, slowly slowly you craft a unique masterpiece from the broken shreds. Sometimes, your hands get bruised and other times, darkness take over. Nevertheless, your heartbeats chase an unknown light. Something calls you from the other end. Perhaps your vision or,
Your own self?

#73 Dear innocent heart,
Seems like you're beating in the memories yet again! Pain is shedding, & love only growing. How should I hold you? What should I say to make you feel better? Perhaps scream out every single word that you wanted to say. Death is approaching faster than we thought to our beloved souls. Let them know, you hold oceans of love for them & it'll be killing to be without them. Do everything you wanted to do for them.
Get them their favourite sweet dishes, perfectly cooked with sugary love or, gift them a sweater or shawl, the warmth of which they could feel from that far away heaven. It's... It's going to be tough, nah sheer torture to let them go. God, life plays bad at times!
Promise me, you would behold their memories close whilst setting them free from the cage of life. Smile for your angels, please? Their happiness would reside in yours. Make them proud, okay? Always say & do whatever you deeply wish to, whatever you feel is truly right, whatever you think may last through the aeons, or perhaps even longer.

Don't forget, you must capture the joy from tears & tears from joy whilst your beats are still thumping inside you.

#54 Dear innocent heart,
You want to die, right? But please read me once. Let me open your eyes. Well, some are not even blessed with the beautiful pair of eyes nevertheless it doesn't matter to you, right? Have you ever witnessed the helplessness of a disabled person? Have you ever felt the endless pain and shimmering hopes of an orphan? Have you seen a cancer patient praying for another day, another breath of life?
I am not saying you're not upset but there are people whose struggles are beyond your imagination. I want to ask only one thing, When they can live? Why can't you? I agree, you're devastated. God has been testing you and people, only adding onto the miseries. What if, the same God is awaiting you to get up & fight. What if, a few dear ones are actually counting on you? What if, the life itself was pinning its hope on you?

Don't forget, you must learn to gift more reasons to smile than shedding tears of pain and show the whole cosmos, what a wonderful blessing you and your heartbeats are!
