The Lessons That I Derived from My Recent Wanderlust
The darkness that surrounds the storm is often the most turbulent period of hardships that embellish us into the trance of not knowing what to do. I learnt the lessons of patience, virtue and gratitude from the darkest periods of my life. Life has its ways of embracing us in its wisdom, staggering us into the whirlwinds of challenges and adversities, only to gift us with peonies of hope. Hope can metamorphose mountains of hatred into the galloping beauty of existence that showers us with the narrative of self-belief and confidence. It is often in a wanderlust away from our daily surroundings that we realize the wonder that the world we live in has to offer. Forgiveness after a storm is like accepting the catastrophe without denying the damage it has done. It is painful but necessary to survive, to thrive in our lives.

Innocence Lost and Truth Found
Nobody really needs a holiday. Whenever somebody would ask me if I was looking forward to my upcoming trip, this is how I would begin my answer. 'Nobody really needs a holiday, but...' But, I had never been so desperate to escape my every day. To wake up to a different sky and have the air I breathe smell, and feel, different. To breathe. As if I had been holding my breath each day I stepped onto a train platform. Every time I entered the office and sat down at my desk. All those sips of coffee that were once pleasurable, now a poison slowly killing me. So, although my defensive response to a simple question followed fear of portraying privilege or sounding out-of-touch with my reality, I needed this holiday.
