Hello you beautiful soul! 🌏🙏

People will hurt you. Yes. Life will not be fair. Yes. Face it.

You grow when you realize you don’t have to suffer in order to learn your lessons.
You don’t have to accumulate mental and emotional scars to prove your strength.
There’s strength in letting go and keeping your soul intact.

Just because you can take it.. it doesn’t mean you have to! This is not what strength is.

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. You will suffer as much as you think you have to.

Life happens. We all go through life experiencing beautiful and not so beautiful things. We inherit habits, beliefs, teachings from our parents and society. Most of them have no sense and they don’t serve us.
In order to realise and acknowledge this, you must wake up. You must be aware.

Our bodies are very smart. They store all our feelings, emotions.. and after some time it all affects our health.That’s why it is so important to face life challenges. You want to get rid of negative emotions.. you have to LEARN to accept the life as it is.

In order to LEARN.. you must UNLEARN what you have learned. All all those patterns of behaviour.. all those beliefs, habits that do you no good and harm you.

People will hurt you. Yes. Life will not be fair. Yes. Face it. That’s the moment when your strength will born.

Keep in mind that there are people who love you.. and life will change for the better.

You can’t change life or others.

But you can decide to change yourself and how you react. How you face life and all unwanted, unpleasant situations.
Change starts with ourselves. Travel light.

‘This is the part of my life where I silently remove myself from anyone who hurts me more than they love me, drains me more than they replenish me, brings me more stress than they do peace, and tries to stunt my growth rather than clap for it. I think that I’ve done more than enough talking and trying to make things work with certain people.. I’m done.’

So.. If it doesn’t challenge you the right way.. if it doesn’t encourage your personal growth, if it drains you, if it doesn’t bring you peace.. let it go. Whatever that might be. You’re free to choose.. what to read, what to watch, whom you surround yourself with, your friends, your partner, how you spend your time, what conversations you engage with.. so on.

The choice is yours. Your goal should be your inner peace.

Connect with yourself and just be yourself, be good, do good and the right people (for you) will love you and accept you as you are.
The rest.. they don’t matter. Not all will like you neither should they.
And you can’t force people to love you, to like you, to understand you.. you can’t force these things.
You do you. But dont forget to let others be themselves.

‘Me, talking to the imaginary audience watching my life at all times: What you’re about to watch is a nightmare.’

Yes. For some it will sound like a nightmare. And maybe it was..
But.. I survived. We survive.

We learn. Grow.
We reborn.
But.. Only if you learn from your struggles.
And if you grow through what you go through.
Only if you choose to gather your strength and get up after you fall down.
That’s how you may become stronger.
It’s up to you!
What you will become.. it’s up to you.
Not two people become the same even tho they have had the same experiences.
How is that possible? The answer lies in you.

People will hurt you. Yes. Life will not be fair. Yes. Face it.

‘It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.’

But don’t forget to educate your heart.
Learn how to rule your mind and listen to your heart. The mind is rational, the heart is compassionate. The brain is logical, the heart is empathetic. The mind is judgemental, the heart understands.
Choose your thoughts, don’t be afraid of “unwanted” thoughts.. but be aware of them, accept them without identifying with them.
Educating mind without educating your heart.. is no education at all.

People will hurt you. Yes. Life will not be fair. Yes. Face it. It’s up to you to choose what serve you and whether you want to grow through life lessons or not.

Depending on when you’re reading this, I wish you either a beautiful day or a good night, you beautiful soul! 🙏🌏
Love and namaste,
Irina 🦄💙

Irina

So, let me introduce myself. My name is Irina Vujaklija and I was born in Belgrade on 31 January 1979. Who am I? Love. I know, you will roll your eyes.. But that is how it is. Discovering my true self wasn’t an easy process. Constantly working on myself, learning by seeking answers to many questions, I have managed to overcome very complicated life situations. Among other things, my severe motorcycle accident in 2004. A life altering moment in just one second.
