The victorious Inconsistency ♥️

What if you thought that consistency matters,

And I thought inconsistency does,

cuz I am changing constantly

❤️

I am changing every passing moment

My emotions are fine tuning my life,

And I am choosing every ‘well being’ emotion ..

❤️

What if you caught me,

when I was whining away

And you thought I was a whiner..

❤️

What if you caught me

When I gave you my word,

That meant well then, doesn’t hold ground now

Would you hold me responsible

For being irresponsible??

❤️

Cuz I am ever changing..

❤️

What if what mattered to me then,

Doesn’t matter to me now??

Would you hold me dead??

❤️

What if I was summoning an ever changing life through me,

That glorifies inconsistency ♥️

Would I find place in your good books??

❤️

What if I let myself flow, like a river

That starts in a country and ends in another,

Would you call me fickle??

❤️

What if I played big by playing it simple

And small,

would you call me mediocre??

❤️

I don’t care to be in business,

if business doesn’t include my life..

❤️

My life is my business..

It is my joy, it is my well being ..

❤️

I am minding my own business

By allowing life through

By letting it in,

letting all the labels aside

❤️

I am living my life

Inconsistently n yet….

It feels whole, it feels fun and full of life

♥️

I came here to personify inconsistency,

Cuz I am ever changing

Only growing more aligned

To ‘who I came here to be’

❤️

Way SLOW!!!

I feel like I’m way SLOW!

As if I don’t belong here…

The world is getting busier, moving from the countryside to towns, moving towns into cities

And here I am!! Wishing that I lived a country life in one of the buzziest cities of this busy world…

❤️

I feel like I’m way SLOW!!

As if I don’t fit in here..

Alongside this efficient and punctual, deadline driven world

All I want to do is watch the leaves getting blown away by the wind..

❤️

I feel like I’m way SLOW!!

As if I speak a different language in the money run world

I speak of barter, I speak of intentions and I speak of gifts 🎁

Good wishes, the heartfelt ones make the biggest difference

❤️

I feel like I’m way SLOW!!

And lazy even… I stubbornly hold on to my authenticity

Putting my meager reputation at stake

I wouldn’t push myself even a hundredth of an inch, for being someone you’d like me to be

❤️

I feel like I’m way SLOW!!!

My goals keep changing, reducing rather..

From making a big change in this world, to simply being me!!

I’m diminishing in ambition and yet ever expanding

❤️

I feel like I’m way SLOW!!

Waking up to my tune, not in charge of the household

Not in charge of anyone but me..

My ego is invisible mostly, as the labels don’t really bother anymore

❤️

I am way SLOW!!! and I love it this way!!

Creating the ‘backward’ space of living in a bubble..

Letting others get you or not..

Letting go of the need to explain..

❤️

I am way SLOW!!! I’ve stopped existing for others..

I’m finding the mean to reach to this place that exists in my head

Where everything just happens

Out of ease and joy.. with intentions playing it all out

❤️

I am way SLOW… n yet I am there..

I might have chosen the slowest n yet the speediest way to get there..

Cuz slowing it down actually solves everything ..

It clearly makes the distinction between the thoughts that I confuse to be ME!!!

❤️

I am way SLOW…

I am..

~ way slow

I’m right here!

To all my dreams, 
galaxy sized and simple tiny ones, 
on the brink of manifesting,
I am right here..

To all of my paintings, 
future ones and the dones, 
closest to me, closer than any human being can get..
I am right here..

To all of my desires,
devoid of logic and reason,
my true gifts of being alive..
I am right here..

To all of my joys,
in baloons and bubbles
and the shades of green around
I am right here!

To all those beautiful people,
lives of whom will completely alter
after crossing paths with me,
I am right here…

To all those hearts,
dreaming of the ‘impossible’
never giving up on them
Im right here…

To the aunthenticity,
of being ‘me’,
irrespective of all the labels..
thank you for finding me
right here..

To this fun loving roller coaster
that disappoints only to bring out the perfection,
more clearly each time..
I am right here..

To all the ‘crazy’ ‘dreamers’,
holding on even to the last atom of their vision
you’re not alone
cuz Im right here..

~aryaa

Ps: I am right here YOU ♥️

Side effects of being AUTHENTIC -3

The side effects of shining one’s authentic self are many! For starters, we really get to enjoy the differences in opinion cuz we agree no two people can think ‘exactly’ alike one hundred percent!!

N that brings us to end up being our own best buddy! Cuz it’s not others job to get us..it’s our job to get us, n their job to get themself ..

And when everyone is just getting busy being WHO THEY ARE, it doesn’t matter what others think of you. ‘Difference of opinion’ one can say, n just ignore it all! 

It’s important for one, to totally understand their calling, n urges! What do they like, what do they dislike.. Being who they are n shining that light out, is why we came here.

I’m just gonna be doing my business n taking care of how happy I stay! What others think about that is their work not mine 🙂

What say you??

~aryaa

Side effects of being AUTHENTIC -2

Being authentic, has its own side effects n if you’ve focused on expressing yourself, exactly the way you are, you will know that not many would get you completely..

N that’s the happiest part of choosing to be here on this planet!! 

We get to be our best buddy, even if that’s the only choice we have. It’s not a bad choice really..

Unless we become our own buddies, its tough to be someone else’s..

Happy work here, and authentic living is a ball game of its own!!

Onto something BIG

Always felt like something big was waiting for me on the other side of the breakthrough!
Was eager for the magic wand to do its job. Basically I was desperate for the breakthrough

Realized now,it’s the breakthrough that has been waiting for me to simply notice it!
There’s magic in realizing it’s all here 🙂 

The same old me, only new stuff is that I’m not after altering who I am.
I am embracing myself and yes, I am onto something big!!!! Really BIG🎁

N it’s here:-) yay 🎁

The ‘Happiness’ JOB!

When we say it’s not our job to keep others happy, the reverse of it is equally true! 

It can never be the job of others to see that we are happy! We may have grown up with the flawed premise that it’s our parents’ job, our friends’ job, our spouse’s job to keep us happy..can’t ever be..

Being happy, feeling happy is a choice that one can only choose for oneself. We would love to do stuff that makes someone else happy. The intentions can be set straight, yet whether the person chooses happiness or not, that’s up to him/her..

The only responsibility we own is of our own joy!!

N the entire world will fall short to change my mind, once I have chosen to stay happy!!

It’s a mindful road, one where I have to be super observant of how I’m treating myself. Yet, it’s fun!!

Cheers to celebrating one’s own joy!!

If I got here so can you🎁

From being the most protected ‘baby’ in my family, ……to ‘still kinda being one’…

From being my grandfather’s fav grandchild ( no arguments here, all my cousins..as I was the youngest 😜)…… to making the choice of taking my first job, in another state away from home..

From choosing to go for Engineering instead of architecture …..to choosing none of the two n yet enjoying my career in the best manner possible..

From sampling a long list of careers after quitting my job…to simply being who I was..

From Shraddha Basrur to Shraddha Trasi to being Aryaa Akshay🎁

An artist.. A writer.. A mom.. A wife.. A daughter..A proud Indian.. It doesn’t matter which order I got here…

I am who I am!! And I do a great job at it!!

Whether you like it or not isn’t my job!!

My job is to make sure I like it n I DO🎁

N this is how all the good things in my life multiply … N my voice n work reaches the globe..

As it already does..

Namaste,

Aryaa Akshay

Quote 7#

Angry, lazy, rude, selfish are labels just like calm, active, polite, beautiful!!

Then why the discrimination???

It’s really not that tough.

Clearly discorded!

Some time back, I’d seen a preview of a show that had film stars have a heart to heart chat with people (common people) who hated their work/ were critical of their movies..

I remember seeing this one part in which actor Farhan Akhtar received horrible feedback for his work/ movies n in spite of everything the critic (a common man) had to say, he ( the actor) was composed n calm.

I was amazed at the response, n I wondered how come this actor received so much flak with such composure. I guess my answer had to come to me in an amazing way..

I’ve found, there are some people, I feel an urge (a strong urge) to support/ message/ help / offer inspiration n yet they are unable to connect with me. The response of which appears in ways like unanswered messages/ no responses against my urge to support/ avoiding me/ ignoring me..

N the interesting part of the story is, there are also some people who have an urge to connect with me, who I’m unable to connect to. Which means I’m ignoring their messages/ delaying in responding..

Am I being a bad person like the others who are ignoring me???

Certainly not!! Me( when I’m ignoring some people)and others who are phasing me out, are following their connections! If the vibration doesn’t match/ frequency of thinking isn’t alike, it’s obvious that the end result will be a disconnect..

And there is nothing wrong with the either of cases!!

It’s just a discord! So coming back to the question of, how can anyone respond to criticism in a calm manner??

Criticism is nothing but a discord!! A disconnect!!

My work has nothing to do with what others review it to be. My work, if it brings joy to me- I wouldn’t care what the critics had to say about it!! N hence the calmness during a bad review..

Isn’t that freakingly awesome!!!

It’s tough for some to get it!! I wouldn’t have got it a decade back! I get it now, cuz in my eyes, I’m really doing well!!

I’m painting well, I’m dreaming well, I’m living well, I’m parenting well, etc etc

If someone has something else to say about my life, it’s clearly a discord!! A different way of thinking on their behalf..

N that’s perfectly fine!! Everyone has a right to form opinions.

About me?? Go ahead!! Just that I’ve stopped caring, cuz I listen to my own heart!!!!

N that serves me best❤️😍
