Dear Myself

Dear Maya, I stumbled on this movie while randomly scrolling, with a few expectations.

It is really an engrossing movie, based on the life of Maya Devi, a lonely and old woman who has lost all hopes to reclaim a life that is always there to begin. Then two school girls decided to add color to her life by sending fake love letters. Little did they know how it is going to impact their lives.

Just a few notes to myself after watching this movie :

Dear Myself, Whatever destiny has in store for you, always say yes to life. Because you have no idea what is going to happen tomorrow.

Dear Myself, Be courageous enough to try something out of your comfort zone Don’t be afraid, instead enjoy the process and lessons you learn along the way.

Dear Myself, Always try to live in the present moment. Trying to change it will lead only to frustration and exhaustion. Acceptance is the key to a happy life. Acceptance of an unpleasant situation does not mean giving up on your goals. We are just trying to accept the situation which is beyond our control.

Dear Myself, Don’t fall into the trap of sacrificing your self-esteem for affection and acceptance from others.

That’s easier said than done. Practice makes a man perfect. Personally, I feel meditation helps a lot in achieving this.

“I am quite naive, all wishes will come true.

Wonder when someone will come with a smile.”
