one helluva ride this year for us, isn't it? From the 2nd wave of covid
unleashing hell to Neeraj's gold-medal-winning javelin throw that infused 1.3
billion Indians with pride.
This is
not our standard motivational blog on the channel, but instead, it's
about the year which saw the Taliban taking over Afghanistan to humanity
standing hand in hand to fight against covid and racism with Black lives matter
taking the world by storm, here are some major events from 2021.
Vaccination: Saviour of the masses
Space tourism: A billionaire's space race
This one
is for all the Friend's fans out there, so, finally, FINALLY after waiting for
long long years we saw our favourite characters coming together to give their
fans that show of a lifetime.
Then happened Spiderman: No way home (No
spoilers 😁) and boy do wishes comes true? they did and we saw
the reunion of our beloved heroes, all thanks to Marvel and Sony.
Sportastic year: The year in sports
We also saw our GOATs (Greatest of All Time) move to their new homes
this year, such as Lionel Messi leaving Barcelona after 21 years, Cristiano
Ronaldo making his long-awaited return to Manchester United, and Max Verstappen
winning the F1 world championship by beating 7-time champ Lewis Hamilton on the
last lap.
Everyone
has their way to describe this year, it wreaked havoc on some while doing
wonders to others, to each his own, it affected us all in one way or another.
The easy way or hard we all learned our lessons, so did I. So, here are some of
them.
Acknowledge
Yourself:
Know yourself, observe the way you feel, ask what you want and expect from someone and something, and reflect on your emotions. We tend to look for problems outside while the root cause lies inside us. We are so used to avoiding our feelings and digging up our emotions that we have started to think it's normal, but it isn't. Some of us even think that this makes us strong. However, I believe that the strong are the ones who know and understand themselves, the ones who feel and live through emotions, and those who are the ones who are most happy in their lives.
So next time rather than digging your feelings try to acknowledge them, feel the pain, feel the joy and happiness because you only get one life and it's meant to be lived.
Gratitude:
Most of the time, things are not as difficult as we
feel and not everything is terrible. We've made it through one of the most
difficult times in human history and if you are having your close ones with you
and you were able to get through this year without much of a hassle then that's
more than enough to be grateful for because many people lost someone close this
year, people were unable to get food, unable to feed their children and some
even lost their fortunes.
Additionally, gratitude provides a new paradigm to
find the extraordinary in the ordinary. It soothes our turbulent minds by
connecting us with the wonderfully ordinary things, both large and small, that
we might otherwise take for granted.
Be Kind
Kindness is, was, and will never
be out of fashion in eons. Be kind not only to others but also to yourself.
Forgive yourself for the mistakes from the past, and let the guilt fade away
which you have been holding for so long. We are living in times where everyone
is battling through their personal battles and if we can't make it better for
others, we shouldn't be making it any worse, so next time when stuck in traffic
rather than being angry and shouting at others, Be kind.
Heal:
Healing helps us to get back on track and to re-align ourselves with our
soul and inner selves. Complete yourself before completing others, fill the colours
in your life before lighting up someone else's world.
Don't hurry to heal, take your time cuz good things
take time and come back stronger.
Be
the part of the solution:
Do your bit. Now the question
arises 'What's my bit? This year, we saw people sharing information about covid
resources on their social media handles, as well as salient heroes who provided
and even shared their food and resources. Anyone can raise an issue or a
problem but only a few are able to solve them and be a part of the solution.
At last,
I wanna wish you all a very Happy new year.
