Dear Diary,<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This weekend I went on a trip to Lonavla with my family. My aunt has a family friend who has a bungalow there. No words can describe how amazing & perfect that bungalow is. We were 7 of us there. The place has a lot of things to keep everyone entertained. It has a huge hall with 3 big bedrooms. All the interiors are so well picked out that everything looks fancy while also has a touch of vintage with modern architecture. There’s an amazing sit-out place like a balcony. We can see an amazing view from there. It’s always cold & to our luck also foggy which creates perfect atmosphere. The basement is converted to a gaming arena with Table Tennis, Carom & board games. There’s also a small terrace above from where the view is better than that at any other place in Lonavla.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
There’s a care-taker who is also the chef so there’s nothing that we need to do, but relax. Sounds peaceful, doesn’t it? The only thing is that there is barely any cell reception up there. And there’s no wi-fi. So, you can do everything & anything which doesn’t involve browsing through your mobile or laptop.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In the deadly silence of this beautiful place, if you go alone, what will you do?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
How long will you be able to ponder over the wonder of the nature, mountains & the superb weather?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
How long will you read or cook or do gardening or photography?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
It will all last only until you finally come face to face with yourself with no more escape routes left. What will you do then? Will you be ready to face your fears? Will you be ready to give a thought to your thoughts?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After a certain amount of time, they will keep cropping up. Your mind will ask you why are you living the way you do. Your body will ask you why you treat it the way you do. Your past will crawl to remind you of your regrets & bad choices. Your future will give you nothing but one big question mark. Your anxiety will ask you if it’s a good time to strike again. Your hands will go to the phone to check for any messages, but there won’t be any. Your heart will ask you if you feel it even exists. You will be left alone with nothing but your thoughts. The question is will you be scared of being left alone with your thoughts? And if the answer is yes, you know that you need to face that fear. <\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n

“Let’s toughen up & face our fears.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let’s stop with the many escape mechanisms we use every day, every minute!<\/span> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let’s not be afraid of being left alone with our thoughts.<\/span> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Instead, let those thoughts come to sort everything out. And also maybe, to inspire!”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Until next time,<\/span><\/div>\n
