Right within the core of my very self, I am beginning to feel the transition from old to new. The ruling power of my peripheral world is succumbing to a new system of leadership. This evolvement is apparent. The old is metaphorically the younger model of me and the new is my present self, branded with clarity, vision and… wisdom?

I often wish I could travel back in the metonymic time to make a twist and a turn to the event of my past life. This is what the coming of age does; it makes you revisit, review, realign and sometimes rewrite the story of your life.

One thing we all clamour for is happiness. We are all in pursuit of happiness. In our longing to be happy, we often forget to be happy. The elusive nature of happiness grasp our attention and we devise numerous means of achieving this ultimate state of being.

However, what many of us do not realise is that the decision to be happy depends entirely on us. We (individually) decide what happiness meant to us. It is within us all, we only need to carve ways round it.

Our States Of Mind

A negative state of mind and a positive state of mind are more or less what determines happiness. Invariably, when we are stressed, anxious and afraid we remain in a negative frame of mind. It is not healthy to remain in this state for too long, but sadly many of us find it difficult not to. For many, this is a long boring and sad rabbit hole that sucks not only energy but any glimpse of happiness out of us.

My Clattering And Chatting Mind

My mind chatters just like yours, but not the soft whispers of yours. It wanders into the thorns and bushes of long-forgotten events of my life bruising my sensitivity. It sent disturbing lingering noises down my spine and I felt its every scream. As expected, I have tried muting its clattering and chattering on many occasions but I have failed.

Mind-wandering is normal. Everyone’s mind chatters. The chattering is the inner dialogue that constantly provides solutions, gives advice and analyse stuff. Working with the brain, the inner voice gives you the clue on what shoes go with the colour of clothes you chose to wear. It plans out your day. Literally, it has a say in your life, your circumstances and the people you meet.

This voice vocalises your choices, it makes you fall in and out of love. The inner voice is part of you, it is YOU. It was there all along when you experienced the disappointments of life, the pain of losing someone close; the heartbreak. It was the soothing voice of encouragement. It hails you when you achieve and it sends its condolence when you fail.
