In the forest lost was I, as the way out you came

In darkness lost was I, as the guiding light you came
Ethanil Tholainthaal...
Where should I lose myself...

I find this song to be soulful, deep, melodious with devotional correlations.
Of course, in context with the movie OK Kanmani, this was meant to be a romantic number describing how one lover reminisces about the other and yearns to unite forever with their counterpart.
I relate the lyrics (which are mesmerizing and pull at all the right heart strings) with the Universe, which for me has done exactly what the lover has done for their counterpart in this song.
I had and have asked for what I thought was the best for me and I ended up receiving much more than I could even imagine, in comparison to which my initial desire seemed feeble.
I had and have asked for a few moments of peace to help me regain my strength to deal with chaos and I ended up receiving liberation from the chaos.
I have so much to thank the Universe for and my long term yearning is to merge with It that has given me so much abundance.... When will this union happen? When will I finally rest in peace merged inside my Universe?
I know not...yet I yearn for it, with quiet expectation and complete trust that the Universe itself is guiding me in my journey to unite with it like a mother guides her crawling baby from a distance to finally merge inside her warm bosom...Protecting me at all times yet allowing me to learn my lessons on my own, waiting patiently for me to reach It.

Today marks the beginning of the 20th year of my earthly existence, although I feel like a 10 year old kid with 10 years of work experience with life. I generally wouldn't really like celebrating my birthday (which would usually consist of wishes from my loved ones, a new dress gifted by my parents and a surprise cake from my sister). I felt I had to achieve something worthy enough to call for a "celebration", so to speak. But this year though, is so radically different. Obviously, the year 2020 or infamously known as The Year That Must Not Be Named (Voldemort reference), has turned all birthdays from the month of March into "Quarantine Birthdays", because literally, the birthday humans were either in self isolation or in lock down. Yet for me, this is such a beautiful birthday that I take pride in celebrating. This day is definitely a cornerstone and a turning point in my life. It marks the culmination of my inner journey of soul searching, life purpose findin...
Caught up in the Covid-19-pandemic-outbreak-caused-quarantine- lock down , I made brave resolutions of not ordering food from outside, sticking to home cooked cuisines, swearing to maintain a clean house, promising to immerse myself in personal development (which is what catalysed the birth of this blog) and of course taking pride in being a responsible citizen and staying inside my bedroom, camped on my bed. This of course worked very well and I was quite happy for the first few weeks, until the Universe decided to put the rather inviting thought of me getting a hair cut, into my mind, on a never ending loop. Everything I watched, everyone I spoke to made some or the other mention of 'hair' or 'cut'. And personally for me, I had always had idle fantasies of rocking a pixie cut which were cut short (pun intended) by my loving mother who implored me to keep my hair long in the name of tradition. So, after deciding it was high time to cut my hair (which l...
Dear Inner Critic, It feels weird to call you dear when I've been antagonizing you my entire life; when in fact any motivational video that I've come across has only lectured me to ignore you and prove you wrong. I loved ignoring you because you just seem to pop out of nowhere to be my personalized buzz kill. I loved proving you wrong because it weirdly boosts my ego, for me to tell "I told you I was right" to a voice that always tells me this dialog (mini revenge). But you know what, Covid has hit the world and locked me up in self isolation and I fell into the world of personal development ( because why not? ). And I have made amazing progress to say the least but I seem to be having a major stumbling point when it comes to "compassion" - the art of having concern for the misfortune of others and being willing to look beyond their flaws - with people who I have felt hurt by ( obviously including you ). I mean, I can have compassion for people who...
