Life Update (Part 2)

Hello everyone,

Well, this is actually little funny and I had a little laugh while writing this post. I didn’t post anything for the entire 2 years and then I am coming back with a life update. I am calling it part 2 because I did this earlier also. I went on a leave from my blog and then came back after a year with a life update 🤣.

Have you noticed that we usually take those for granted who truly love us, genuinely care for us and about whom we know that whatever might be, this person will always have my back.

Well, I seem to do this with my blog😔

When life happens to me, the first thing I ignore is to blog and I am really sad about it.

However, whenever I’m stuck, I come back. I don’t know my blog is loyal to me or vice versa😂.

Jokes apart, this means that this is my true love where I come back every time❤️

And in my life.. I left my last organisation as the environment in the team was extremely toxic. It brought me to the point where I chose my mental peace over the job and left.

Hence, I’m on a job hunt currently. My daughter is 2.5 years old and goes to the play school now. I’ll share her pictures on my story 😊.

How are you guys doing? Let’s connect in the comments💜

Love,

Divya Srivastava

What are you grateful for?

Let’s talk about things we are grateful for & instill some positivity in our hearts.

Here is my list of things I am grateful for.

🙏I am grateful to have my parents who love me unconditionally and do everything possible in their limits for my happiness and benefit. The purest form of love I have experienced.

🙏I am grateful to have spent 27 years of life in my father’s house in Delhi that I love.

🙏I’m grateful that I got to experience some good times during my post graduation.

🙏I’m grateful that I changed my personality and got some self confidence during my post graduation.

🙏I’m grateful to experience and enjoy good times during my tenure in DLF Pramerica Life Insurance ( Now DHFL Pramerica Life Insurance) & SquareYards.

🙏I’m grateful my father didn’t get too much burdened with my wedding expenses and he managed everything within budget. ( I know I’m giving too much detail😛 but I want to be honest and clear about things I’m grateful for and I don’t want to hide anything).

🙏I’m grateful I had the courage to take my own decision of getting married to the person of my choice.

🙏I’m grateful I get to socialise with friends much more because of my husband’s circle.

🙏I’m grateful I got to visit many places after marriage in these 5 years (4 actually. 5th year was spent in Lockdown). Goa, Gangok, Darjeeling, Pelling, Jaipur, Chopta, Shimla, Kausali, Nainital, Lansdowne, Jim Corbett & more.

🙏I’m grateful I have my job in this Pandemic.

🙏I’m grateful I got complete maternity break of 6 months in my organization.

🙏I’m grateful to be blessed with my daughter.

🙏I’m grateful she is healthy and happy.

🙏I’m grateful to be a mother and experience pure love.

🙏I’m grateful I recovered soon after being Covid positive during pregnancy & my baby was fine as well and there are no post Covid effects.

🙏I’m grateful to have a disease free body.

🙏I’m grateful to have maids working for me.

🙏I’m grateful I can afford a cook and a cleaning maid.

🙏I’m grateful to have sufficient resources.

🙏I’m grateful to have a comfortable life.

🙏I’m grateful to have our own house where we have recently shifted.

🙏I’m grateful my parents’ house is not very far from my place. It’s an hour journey. Hence I can visit them often.

I’m already feeling so much better writing about things I am grateful for😀. It’s a great activity to feel positive. You’ll attract positivity only if you think positively. You’ll attract happiness only if you are happy yourself.

So, what are you grateful for?

Do share with me.

Being Grateful🙏

Overflowing….

There are times when I feel so blessed and thankful to God. I get feelings of gratitude. Genuinely, blessed for genuine reasons. I feel so positive that I want to start many new activities at that time. Like, few days back, I was thinking to start a gratitude journal.

I would want to write affirmations on few days. I would want to keep smiling and ofcourse I feel happy at that time.

But then, there are times, when I feel so shattered. Is this life? I ask myself. I get so many Whys and Hows to which there are no definite answers. Every relation feels superficial except my parents’ love for me.

“You don’t get everything in life”. I have heard this many times. May be I would have said the same to someone myself. It’s easier said than to understand and console oneself. I feel like I have taken few wrong decisions in life. But then, I think, may be these are my KARMAS. No one can escape the outcome of their bad Karmas. I want to tell myself “grow up girl. Welcome to life. Being the youngest in family does not mean, you’ll be the sweetheart to all forever. Be confident and just grow up”.

At times I feel what have I earned in life. What have I done to be loved and remembered. Relations you get, friends you earn, they say. I don’t even have genuine friends who would come to me when I would be in trouble. (Except 1,may be). I feel so envious when I see those pictures of people with their friends and family on social media.

I was always an under confident, shy and an introvert child. A bit depressed as well. I never felt beautiful. I never truly enjoyed my childhood and teenage.

No one told me you are beautiful. No one told me to have confidence. No one told me to enjoy without worrying about anything. No one told me, you are not less than anyone. I want to relive my life and do all the corrections. At times, I want to runaway and go far and live with my parents and my daughter. Away from people who bring negativity in my life. I have heard people say to avoid negative people. But, it’s not feasible in every situation. There are few people who are there, just there. You can’t avoid them. You can’t run away from them.

I am over flowing with emotions today. I’ll motivate myself to start a new day from tomorrow with a positive mind set. Let’s see, for how many days that’ll sustain. It’s a continuous & hard process to stay positive and sane.

May God bless us all 🙏

Why do Good Things happen To Bad People? The Law of Karma & Manifestation

Many question, ‘Why is there so much of injustice in this world? Why do immoral people escape punishment whilst honest individuals are made to suffer?’ The old adage should say: Nothing is certain but death and taxes… and Karma. Karma is as real as it gets. The various holy books made sure to state that ‘What ye […]
