A breakup saga

I do not, I repeat, I do not recommend this outfit for summer!

I shot this look in February but never got to posting it. Since I have decided that this crazy crazy busy season (moving + visiting family + working + trying to maintain a semblance of social life) is the right time to get back to blogging consistently, here I am.. posting winter/spring outfits in summer!

Now if that’s not being original, I don’t know what is. 🤷‍♀️

As I write this, I am waiting for the cleaners to clean our now empty ex-apartment. I loved our place. It was spacious, had so much storage and was extremely well lit and I had a hard (ok very very very hard) time saying goodbye to this place and yes to moving on..literally..

The new place may not be as great looking but is so much more closer to my work place and we generally like the area so so much more.. but I still resisted… short of a hunger strike kind of resistance. 🙄

My logic and why some people don’t like avocado are hard to explain. 🕺🏻

Anywho it got me thinking that how every decision in your life eventually comes down to what your priorities are at that particular phase of life and how those decisions may have worked earlier but can turn toxic and start affecting you mentally and physically as time goes by.

I guess what I am trying to say is that sometimes moving on ain’t glamorous but a necessity for your sanity. And even though my break up story with my ex-apartment is way sadder than Romeo and Juliet’s, I am talking about breakups/moving on in general.

It’s so easy to hold on to relationships, people, beliefs and habits that at one point gave you happiness and strength but are now more toxic for your mental and emotional well being. The comfort of the known is like a glue that makes it hard to let go. *spiritual guidance from yours truly*

Mon seriously.. Moving apartments and you think you are some kind of life guru?

Okay fine not a guru but I have held onto my fair share of wrong relationships (not just the apartment kinds) past it’s expiration date, held onto self-doubt/hatred and most importantly, held onto clothes I no longer fit in. 🙊

Relationships are tricky..You start believing what you want to believe. You somehow convince your mind that if you just hold on a little longer, a little tighter ..things will work out.. Isn’t that what all the movies and books tell us? Keep waiting and loving someone selflessly and they’ll realize sooner or later and run to you across sunflower fields, playing guitar and singing “Tujhe dekha toh yeh jaana”.. Okie that escalated very soon! 😬 You get my point..

But you know.. that rarely works. In your heart you’ll always know whether something is worth holding onto or not. Listen to your gut and don’t be afraid to take that first tiny step to move forward. Also, listen to people close to you who have your best intentions at heart. It is so important to keep yourself open to new possibilities even if some areas of your life take a hit!

Just like our move is leading me to a shorter commute aka more time to pursue things I love aka sleeping..#priorities

Ok guys now I am now off to sleep for 48 hours.. Thank you so much for stopping by and I really hope you enjoyed reading this post. Have a great week.. – Love, M
