Diary Entry


Dear Diary,
            

      The skies continue to remain their soft, colour of blue. The sun penetrates the earth, its warmth reaching our very cores. Now at this point in my life, its touch takes me back, to my childhood; where happiness fully satiates our tender hearts. It is now that when I reflect back, I realize that this pure happiness stems from love.
            

      As a doctor, there were days when I would feel exhausted. Physically, mentally, emotionally. It was evident that this is the norm for doctors. Days when thoughts would shroud over in my head and I would ask myself why I am doing this? Do I really want this? I remember looking in the mirror and I stared with a fierce intensity at myself, and a powerful force stronger than the sun forced the clouds of thoughts away to a far place; I grasped the fact that I do this because I find satisfaction in helping others to the best of my abilities, and it keeps me full. This flourishes from love.

            
      Not every day will be what you want it to be, this is not a perfect world. If I have learned anything from this life of mine, it would be to fully embrace love. No matter what form it is in. Learn to love completely. Do things with love. Do what you love. Love. It is a four letter word, that when stretched is boundless. It will enable you to accept yourself completely, show love towards others, and to the world around you. It will allow you to push out of your comfort zone, and to value every moment. To have an overflowing amount of faith and understanding. Love will be the light that shines in the darkest of hours. Love will be the vibrant colours that make a perfect painting, even more beautiful. Without it, there would be no point in living.
