It is funny how the brain works If you can't remember something, some word or phrase and you give up trying to remember, don't worry it will come up. Maybe not instantly or the day you want it to. But it will in days or weeks or even months after, it will reverse the information, you'll get what you once wanted to remember. Isn't it something amusing? I once read something like this in Humayun Ahmed's book, in Misir Ali maybe. And I experienced this quite sometime in my life and now I believe it to be true.
Some thoughts. Our old generation glorified selfless acts to the point that they started calling putting themselves first as: 'selfish.' To a certain period of time, I have also followed this pattern. I thought taking care of me is selfish. Where taking care of me is fundamental. You cannot pour out of a cup, which is empty. So pour yourself first. I have to unlearn so many of these toxic patterns because these have made my life only miserable and problematic. I am learning that evolving is crucial for living with inner peace. These days, I value so much about inner peace. I'll choose it over others anytime, and it is not selfish. It is in fact for greater good.
