Contradictions of life

In a world where most people seem extremely lonely, time spent alone is often underrated.

Courage is not just a roar but also in the silence and telling yourself you will do it

Fear is not just running away, it is also staying and doing nothing when something needs to be done.

Ignorance is not just not knowing, it is also assuming that others don’t just because you do. Ignorance is also assuming someone else knows just because you don’t.

Creation is not always about building something new. It’s often about letting the old, be. That is how monuments become monuments!

Confidence is not only in being assertive about your point of view but having the ability to let someone else assert their point of view.

Compassion is not just about weeping at the misfortune of the other, it is also about allowing space and time for those unfortunate to remain sad.

Humility is not just about being modest about one’s own achievements but also about recognising the importance of other’s accomplishments which make yours possible

Resilience is not just about bouncing back from difficult situations but also the ability to fight challenges over a prolonged period.

Patience is not just the ability to soldier through long-delayed issues without annoyance it is also the ability to deal with mercurial change gracefully.

Discipline is not just about doing things that are right but also about avoiding wrong things.
