Are You Okay?

Your peace doesn't lie in people's understanding towards you.

Your peace lies in your understanding towards yourself.

But sometimes, it's not just others but even we end up misunderstanding ourselves.

And the worst? When we intentionally misunderstand ourselves either by ignoring what we are really feeling, or by making ourselves believe that we are okay.

"I am okay" is as easy to say as it is hard to ask "Am i really okay?".

Yes, sometimes we lie to ourselves calling us "MATURED".

The point is, we are not matured by ignoring ourselves. We are matured by understanding ourselves. And what that understanding takes is not just "being okay", but equally "not being okay". You've to understand your pain as much as you understand your happiness.

Remember, you can't be okay without being okay with you not being okay.

Don't run after being matured by being okay. To be matured, you need to BE YOURSELF.
