I Love Myself

You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, 
deserve your love and affection.
-Buddha







Who Am I ??

I am Anonymous.
I am twenty years old.

I am a student, a brother, a son, a friend
And half of the time, I don’t know what people want of me.

I am confident of being self-conscious
But self-conscious of being confident.

I wish I could figure out my place in
My family, my group of friends, my school.

I hope to find my place in this world.

I don’t understand why we cry for joy
Or live to die.

I adore life
Because there’s so much to see and do.
I hate life
Because it’s bound to end.

I take the bus just to watch people.
I’d rather be alone.

I have an obsession with eyes
Simply because they can tell you the most about someone.
I call them
“The Window” to someone’s soul. 

I laugh at how
Nobody is a pronoun
Anonymous can replace a name
Indescribable is an adjective
Undone is an adverb

Some think that I’m strong 
Confident
…Myself.
I care too much what others think
I wish I could be how I want to be
When I want to be. 

I hate when people compliment me 
Saying that I’m not fat
No matter what, I’ll still think I am.

They don’t know me.
They know nothing. 
They don't know that I'm constantly living the worst day ever
Or that I would die for my best friend in the blink of an eye.
They don’t know what’s going through my mind. 

They don’t think the rumors torture me
Because I block them out. 
They don’t think the whispers hurt
Because I pretend I hear nothing. 
They don’t think the stares burn
Because I act like I don’t see them. 

Whenever I get mad,
I write letters to people expressing how I feel.
I never send them
Because I can’t bring myself to hurt their feelings.

I lie awake at night
Wasting time
Thinking about how much of our life is wasted
Just by wasting time.

I don’t get how we can spend time sleeping
Right after saying that life is too short.
I’d rather stay up with friends.

One of my worst fears is darkness
It’s one of the only things that keeps me calm.
Music calms me too.

Without music, I probably would’ve gone crazy by now.
I couldn’t sing if my life depended on it
I’m in choir.

The most important thing in my life right now?
My friends.
We play, laugh, cry, fight, talk.
We live life to the fullest.
I know them better than myself.
They know me better than I do.

The thing I want most of right now are answers
The thing I have most of right now are doubts.

My name is Anonymous, and this is 2011.

I don't know who I am, 
do you ??



Love

A friend texts me last week with an interesting fact:

"Love yourself....Coz others love your qualities but not you.."

This puts me in thinking mode once again...Do we really care for ourself ?? Or do we get fascinated by someone saying "I am there for you" or "I care for you".....??

Love is kind of an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment. And it isnt necessary that love is to be shown for someone we care for or someone close to us or someone for whom we have strong desires inside our heart....As i said Love is an emotion for personal attachment....And that arises another question..."Can't we love ourselves?"

Start feeling for yourself....start loving yourself and you will never ever find yourself lonely again !!
Loneliness is wen we say we are alone and there is no-one to care for us or look out for us....
But have u ever thought that wen u are lonely....u in fact have the best person beside u..."You-Yourself !!"

You are the only person who can never ever betray urself and fulfill the ultimate condition for love....i.e. "feel and care unconditionally"....

I'd surely like to add this:
Every morning...do stand in front of ur mirror and say "I LOVE YOU"... :)

Love Yourself !!


We often say "Love Yourself.....You are Your best friend"

But then does it all end up with just the saying?? One day I was sitting by my table and thinking wat wrong cud i have done in my life that made so many people hate me...wat cud be the possible reason !!

And in that single moment the great almighty made me realize wat a waste of time it is to ponder upon such things....I realized that if i want to think upon something....it shud be about my friends...my family...about me..myself.
These stupid thoughts had occupied my mind for so long that i had completely forgotten that i was working on something very important...my Java tutorials... :P

It is indeed very important to sit somewhere and run our minds upon such things...how we cud make our lives better...how we cud earn respect...if not in others' eyes...atleast in ours'.

To think wat we can do for ourselves...how we can love ourselves...how we can take care of ourselves..!!

What can u do for Urself ??

A person when asked if you u really love someone...what can u do for ur love??
He answered i can do anything to make her laugh...i can do anything to see her smile...
That is called LOVE!! But wen asked what can u do for urself..? He replied, i am good the way i am..!
If i ask u to thoroughly introspect urself and then tell me the truth...ur answered wud be one of the 2...
"I ROCK!!" or "I SUCK!!"...
and then i'd ask wat can u do to make the latter one just like the first one?? Most of u won't find an answer to it...

I'd say... LET'S COME UP WITH ONE !!
