You Still Have Time. (Diary Logs #15)
Posted On April 8, 2018
Hello Readers! This post is one of those posts which just came to me while walking on the metro station. It may sound bizarre and random because it is.

I was walking home one day last week by my usual route. It had been one of those hectic days involving a lot of stress. I think I left office at around 9:30 PM and with me, I took a lot of wavering thoughts. I was worried about work & reviews as it was March end. I wanted to fly to another state to see my best friend & wasn’t sure how it will work out at home. I was getting these migraine attacks a lot of the time. So basically, my day started & ended with a headache. While I was lost in all these troubles, I saw a particular advertisement at the metro station. There are a lot of advertisements that were up along the way. There are usually some Bank hoardings or about some new movie or the latest Netflix sensation. That day I saw a board on which was written, “You still have time.” It must have probably been an insurance ad or something. But, only those 4 words caught my attention.
And then, I got lost in another trail of thoughts. It was March end, but I still had time to prove myself. A couple of weeks can sure make a difference if I’m positive. And yes, I can get a permission from my parents to visit my best friend. I’m an adult now and can take care of myself sensibly. And yes, there’s nothing much I can do about migraines, but I can try to eat healthy and stuff. I can write more, read more, live more. I can do what ever I want to do.
I still have time.
Just a couple of days went and I have done so much more. And that feels purely amazing!
Those 4 words inspired me so much, that I have already started writing again. I started & finished reading a new book – ‘Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda’. I also write a review on it! I did get permission from my parents & I’m going to see my best friend next month! (We are literally counting down the days!) I cut off my hair and made it really short. I had always wanted to do that, but this time, I just did it! It was so simple. With this look, I finally feel like I’m the female lead in my own movie. I feel good & positive. I’m doing better at achieving my daily and weekly targets. For the first time ever since I started working, I had a pleasant Monday.
I still have time,

Hello! I'm Aishwarya, an Introverted bookworm & writer. I have been reviewing books since 6 years on my blog - Mindscape in Words. My favourite genres are Historical Fiction, Mystery, Thrillers, Magical Realism, Poetry, Fantasy & Memoirs. I like the kind of books which evoke emotions on several levels leaving me wrecked, but also incredibly content. I'm dreaming for the world to paint a landscape full of words, more like Mindscape in Words. Hope you enjoy the view.
