I am changing!!

*YES, I AM CHANGING!*

Days slip into weeks, weeks turn into months and months transform into years. *Calendars are changing and so am I*.

*Yes, I  am changing*. In certain things age has mellowed me down, in others I have become more aggressive . Sometimes I find myself acting very wisely and sometimes I just go crazy. Certain issues will have me speaking vociferously whereas at other issues I just shrug and remain silent.

*Yes, I  am changing!* After loving my parents, my siblings, my spouse, my children, my friends, now I have started loving myself.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I just realised that I am not “ Atlas ” and the world does not rest on my shoulders.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I have now stopped bargaining with the poor vegetable and fruit vendors. After all, a few rupees more is not going to burn a hole in my pocket but it might help the poor fellow save for his daughter’s school fees.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I pay the auto wallah / cab wallah and walk away without waiting for the change.The extra money might bring a smile on his face.After all he is toiling much harder for a living than me.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I have stopped telling the elderly that they have already narrated that story many a times.After  all, the story makes them walk down the memory lane and relive the past.

*Yes, I am changing*. I have learnt not to correct  people even when I know they are wrong. After all ,the onus of making everyone perfect is not on me.Peace is more precious than perfection.

*Yes, I  am changing*.  I give compliments freely and generously now . After all its  a mood enhancer not only for the recipient but also for me.

*Yes, I  am changing*.I have learnt not to bother about my creased shirt. After all, personality speaks louder than appearances.

*Yes, I  am changing.* Nowadays I don't bother  if  fine lines are showing on my forehead. After all beauty of my soul outshines the beauty of my face.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I am learning not to let others make me feel incompetent.After all I am not only what they see in me. I might not be good at certain things but I am excellent at others.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I walk  away from people who don't value me.After all, they might not know my worth, but I do.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I remain cool when someone plays dirty politics to outrun me in the rat race.After all I am not a rat and neither am I in any race.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I am learning not to be embarrassed by my emotions. After all it's my emotions that make me human.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I now tell  people if I like them.After all ,there is nothing wrong in liking someone.

*Yes, I  am changing*. I demand  for whatever  is due to me.After all, accepting injustice is almost as bad as doing injustice.

*Yes, I am changing*. I have learnt to live each day as it were the last.After all, it might be the last .

*Yes, I  am changing*. I am doing what makes me happy.After all, I am responsible for my happiness, and I owe it to me.

*And I am loving the new me!*
