My lifestyle has changed a lot from my school days and yet, it hasn’t changed a bit. I’ve come to learn to live by the fact that there’s always a way, in or out. I’ve come to accept my mistakes and be at peace with them. And yet, I’ve dark days where I can’t breathe from all the things crawling deep inside me. Today, I’ll share my experience of the changed lifestyle and what led me to change my lifestyle and let you learn from it, through and through.

And there's always another way. Always.
Each one of us is stuck somewhere in the middle of mayhem that we individually ridicule. And it amuses me to finally realize that, even if I had a day with a hundred hours, I'd still delightfully spend seventy-nine hours having substantial thoughts about the mess, my mess. And quite definitely, I'll never be found believing that there is a way out and that I can get past it. I would still be found contemplating life and making sure everybody else around me knew I'm cribbing about absolutely nothing. Typical, eh? Having said that, I will be different today. Instead of my vulnerability, I would hang lose tonight and get it off my self. Ugh.

Okay, so now that it's almost midnight and my near and dear monsters will be on top of me soon, I'd like to take a quick moment to appreciate an inherent ability. Also, an unheeded ability. The ability to live in spite of life making itself happen. The ability to have always found a way out of the screaming, crying and self-hurt, drugs and depression, broken friendships and broken marriages and the fear of walking through life being parentless. We've always once said, "Life happens". It surprises me each time I say it, so effortlessly and at how flawlessly better I'm getting at it. More often than not, we fail to appreciate our proliferative tendency to find out ways to live, even when the most important doors of our lives close upon us. Never do we comprehend our standardized skill of finding a reason to live, despite the mourning of death and despite the acceptance of being unloved. Tonight, it's an occasion to celebrate our possibly inherent potentiality of being able to find another way out of every mess that we have ever been. You're alive and you're breathing and you're reading and it's important to acknowledge the same.

Here’s your way out of your problem and make your lifestyle a better one. And the first step is to accept and learn that there’s always a way, in or out. We stand here today because we have overcome all storms and snowfalls. Now, it is time for us to accept that we can continue doing this and not fall in prey to the traditional process of feeling unworthy.
