THE JOURNEY OF SELF- LOVE


Hola Bookworms!!
For today, I have "ALONG THE WAY" by Shreesha Khare.
Let's read the blurb of the book:

We believe that happiness, love is the next place, the next job or with next partner, you will never find happiness and love anywhere until you get uncomfortable with the differences of people and be selfless with your needs. Be more giver than a taker. Amelie’s uncomfortableness with herself first and imperfections around her led to the path of self-love, love. Love is when someone else’s happiness is more important than your happiness. 
Self-love is not selfish unless and until you don’t show it to others. Loving someone unconditionally is all about serving the needs of those around you or person you love. Love is all about affection, compassion , and empathy. How Amelie stopped looking for perfection and focused on building a solid relationship with herself first and then only she can build with others and help them. 
Her relationship with Peter and Steve in a different situation made her understand that ‘Me’ is not important ‘other’ is what important in any relationship we hold with people. This she understood by indulging in a relationship with herself. It will make us uncomfortable but that will give you autonomy from everything. 
Amelie understood that love is a choice, a deliberate action, not a feeling which are like visitors, they come and go what stays is love. It will make us free, it is an attachment which will bind us. Love means growth, commitment and stay strong and be grateful in life how grave situation be.
Everything start with first, then only we can welcome those differences in the world and people as real love means uncomfortableness.
Get Ready for Uncomfortable Journey of Amelie….

Now we head onto my review:

The story of Amelie tells us the true love is always SELF- LOVE.
It tells us that if you do not love yourself first, then you cannot give your 100% in any relationship.
Either the relationship would fail or you or your partner would feel suffocated being together.
This story tells us that being alone never means you being sad, it can also mean that you’re on the journey of loving yourself.
This book helps in understanding to keep yourself first and the others after you, depending on the situation.

At some points, it became a Bollywood movie scene but, otherwise, it’s good.
Also, the language is super- easy.
The new readers can try this one.

My ratings: 3.5 out of 5 stars.

A self love letter to you, from you, Sunshine :)

Hello Sunshine, How have you been doing these past few days? I know, this is a touché topic to talk about these days but I hope things will get better real soon and we’ll all be able to forget this new normal and will get back to being out older selves with a few changed and better habits that we learned throughout this pandemic. Sunshine, it is not always easy to be our best selves in all the situations but you’ve got to start from a certain point, right? I heard you’ve been thinking that you’re turning into an emotionless being? That you have no idea what you are feeling and why. Tell me something, didn’t you smile last night when your whole family was with you last night, enjoying dinner and watching TV while talking about your childhood memories they cherish till date? Didn’t you embrace the wind you felt on your face while riding your scooter? Didn’t it make you smile? Didn’t you cry when you thought about the fact that there might be a few years left for you to live wi

Let's pour our heart out today!!

People often say, things never come easily to us. We need to work hard and really very hard to get the things in life that we really want to achieve. Often times I think about being a content writer, sometimes a data scientist or maybe a teacher or just staying a reader for life. People say that I've not been doing much in life professionally/ career related because they do not see me growing. I too think about all this many a times because who doesn't? I like to call these kind of days, " Reflection Days " when I sit down with a diary in hand (sometimes not even a diary) and think about everything I have done, achieved, experienced, regret not doing in this whole life or just the past year to be specific. The conclusion that I reach upon is considerably vague because I just cannot reach a proper conclusion to all these things, I guess no one can. Nonetheless, I reach upon the conclusion that I might have not done what my friends are doing or I might not have achieved
