Celebrate Yourself!

Life is full of surprises one minute you're drowning in anxiety and the next second you're soaring in achievements beyond imaginations. I too was in a situation where I nearly had a crazy rendezvous of experiencing death, not literally although in terms of how I am handling the difficulties and dealing with adulthood. How did I undertake these seemingly annoying times you ask? Well, a few realisations hit sit me like a surge of sand dunes when I inhaled the my last will....and the biggest one made took me beyond the materialistic, it was "You are still you!!" Preach much?  I understand....allow me to dissect it in ease. Imagine you're a car. Be it any car you want....a Maruti, an Alto, AUDI?! Or even a grand SUV. What is one thing all these cars need? Yup, that's right....It's FUEL! Without fuel or battery or charge none of the cars can be driven at all. You are exactly the same, a motor who needs fuel consistently to keep going.

Moreover as a v...

For once, I am glad to admit that I am amongst the millions who spend endless hours looking up “How to Lose Weight”, “Cause of Obesity” so on and so forth on the internet. I am the kind of person that likes to try out everything right from the GYM to Cycling to Running to all kinds of Power Yoga and Hot Yoga in a bid to control my increasing weight. But more often than not I end up in losing more of my enthusiasm than my weight in the bargain as it is really a hard process.

I am not writing this piece to expand on the medical complexities of obesity but rather talk about my own experiences and conversation with someone who is also now an important part of my life. However before I proceed further, let me just say that I do com...
