PUT ALL YOUR SOUL IN EVERYTHING YOU DO (ft .A very short story)

-

 



It's easy to put our heart, mind, and soul into doing something that we love, but it's quite challenging to even concentrate on something in which we have the least interest. But will you accept it if I say that, to an extent, we also lose interest in the things that we once valued more than our life?

A little girl kept on pressuring her parents to get her a doll that she saw in an advertisement. She cried, rolled on the floor, and fought. She fed her desire and not her hunger. After three days of protest, she got the doll she wanted. A week passed, and her mother found the same doll she had bought for her child a week before under their bed, hair tangled, stuck between the dust, patches of dirt on its fair skin. The mother was shocked to see the doll in this miserable state. She called out to her daughter for an explanation. The little girl said calmly, "Maa, I played with this doll so much for the past one week that now, if I look at it, I feel irritated."

Children usually feel excited when they see new toys, but if they get used to playing with them continuously, they feel bored and look out for other toys (new toys). The same goes for adults too, if we keep doing the same thing over and over as a routine, we tend to feel irritated and frustrated, like robots. We are created to be natural and to do things in a flow, not in a rigid routine.

But in situations like this, how do we put our whole soul into the things we do? Times like this are completely normal, and it's okay if we feel depressed or tired even in work that we love. I would suggest taking a break amidst this irritation and doing something that would relax your mind and make you forget the frustration.

For me, I would go for singing, crocheting, playing the keyboard, or enjoying a cup of coffee. It can be anything, reading, writing, painting, or listening to your favourite songs. If it’s a long-term issue, take a break for a few days, relax yourself, and then get back with an unshakeable spirit to the things that once made you to run away. This relaxing phase will help you in many ways; the most important is that, after relaxing, you can put your whole soul, mind, and heart back into the things that once pushed you to the verge of quitting. 

Not with the spirit of frustration,

But with the unfailing spirit,

until we do it with our whole soul.

The plan to get clear

  It all started with a plan of my dad telling me to visit certain places to get an idea of the routes so we planned to take a bus to Broadway it was around 2 pm on Friday after the classes got over I came to the bus stop to take a bus to broadway then within minutes there came a bus uncrowded and spacious and I got a seat near conductor so that if I had to get down in between I can tell him. It started with a calm and sunny nature, My dad instructed me not to doze off while sitting because the significant reason for me going there was to get the routes clear but there I sat near the window with heat waves passing through my skin and melodious music flowing in my ears if the breeze was an chill breeze then I might fall asleep as soon as I took the ticket. After Kotturpuram, I got confused as the routes looked similar, and it was one way, so I couldn't memorize the routes even while I going back. I looked kinda dull but the next stopping after presidency college brought a smile to m...

The contrast between Little Women and Pride and Prejudice  The novel Little Women by Louisa May Alcott was set during the American Civil War around the 1860s. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen was set around 1811. Both novels present the social expectations of women, love between classes, the unbreakable bond between sisters, family, struggles, and social norms...these were common in both novels but appear different according to their society. Little Women revolves around the life of the March family, where Mr & Mrs March is very concerned about their children but never forces them to do anything. They never conclude any situation with society's norms, but they did care about their children's concerns regarding that particular opinion. Mrs. March supports Jo in her decision to confess to Laurie as her mother knows that Jo has pure love towards Laurie, but they don't know that he is already engaged to her younger sister. Mrs. March also supports and encourages Jo for he...

SLEEP

So let me start the blog with a valid question, How many hours will you spend for sleeping in a day?..... My sleeping hours got reduced in the past 3 months I would sleep for 5 hours a day whereas a human has to sleep at least for 8 hours is the doctor's prescription. But you guys, never think of me as a spirited or bustling person those words never suit me. Sleep is a wonderful activity for active beings, by sleeping your anger can go down, and can be relieved from unwanted stress and overthinking, and it will even boost your mental energy. Moreover, you can escape from reality for a while, which means when you wake up from sleep you'll have the confidence to encounter and conquer the battle with which you have been struggling for days. And I have heard people saying those who sleep a lot are sluggish humans, Does it even make any sense?.... Everyone knows how important sleep is, in an individual's life. After a long tiring day even if I get a 10-minute nap that would be s...
