How old is your mind?

"This is the perfect age to do it."

What is that age?

Congratulations, the earth just completed another spin around the sun!
Physically you may be developing, but how can you compromise on your mind's age?

Infant, young, and old.
Three phases of generation, but the distinction of mind by age, is a societal norm. You are free enough to choose your "mental age" and keep it where you want.


I am a 23-year-old kid; I thought I missed my valuable time of life or that step entering into adulthood or grown-up stage. But there is a face behind the myth:your-mind-could-choose-happiness. It's not as easy as the saying; it requires our robust and determined attitude.

Physical health and mental health are well interconnected, so it's mandatory to nourish them equally, like pouring water to nurture a plant. From personal experience, I've had that adequate sleep, short walks, water bottles, and fresh air that could bring you to the age you want. It doesn't matter if you're going to be the age of 5 or 60. Disregard the unnecessary weeds growing with us, the perfect age, and the dreadful thought of what will happen after this age.

I am still that school kid who used to learn from her mistakes, and what about you?

If you are eight years old and want to know more about sex education, I say you should study it. 25-year-old men or women want to play together in a park or wanna check that old seesaw balance, what are you waiting for? Have you ever thought of having a play park for the 20+ gang? I am 70 years old, and I want to dance with the rhythm of waves and music; I will be at Kozhikode beach because that beach could emotionally support more than anyone.

Be with like-minded people or tribes, not with the group of who loves getting old.

Now tell me how old your mind is?

P.S I would like to dedicate this to my grandma, who is not with me today. She was a smart lady, even in her 70s, and a great source of inspiration.

A cliche but stick on your niche!

I might have chanted to myself a thousand times, 'live as what you are, do what you love,
You only live once', and I think this might be the same for you too. Do you think it is easy to acquire what you are dreaming of?

To an extent, the universe conspiracy works out.

It's only a probability.
I dream and keep dreaming, day and night but what if I am dreaming from my most comfortable cushion and doing nothing other than that?

So it's better to draw a diagram to know what my inner soul is really craving that would exactly lead me to what I really want. I am setting my goals, stepping up very slowly and the self-assessment is great. A relaxed conversation with the diary.

What if I am compelled to read something I really don't want to read? I am not doing what I really want to do because I can be lazy. So I take time, take enough time. I might have to take years to complete. If I am reading a single line a day, I exist. I am delighted too.


But ever since this realisation, I'm dreaming, travelling, writing, planning things, be it big or small and making a list which probably would be endless. I am a beautiful creature on earth and I should have no regrets of how I could've lived better but failed to try for it. I can listen to the chirping of birds, a window near to my table so I can have enough daylight and the full moon too.

I often strive hard to make myself to immediately act on it if I have big dreams otherwise to do little things to make my heart comfortable. It doesn't matter if you are not living as what you are or you are not doing what you love or you are exactly chasing to be what you are.

Get into your niche, often enjoy the serenity.
Pamper your heart.

Love the hobbies, not the goals.
(What do you prefer hobby or goal?)
