One of my best friends from undergrad days pinged me today that he is blessed with twins- one boy and one girl. He was just so happy, and my heart is full with the great news.

On the contrary, here i am on a sunday, unmarried, and my biggest worry is- have no clue of how to build a fuckin analysis model that is due tomorrow. Not sulking, but trying very hard not to.

I still dont know what happiness means... looking fwd to the comments to lighten my mood, so get crackin’

Live your life per your timeline. And remember people’s life might seem perfect from outside but rarely is. Cliched as it sounds...Count your blessings. I know the feeling tho... sometimes you need to go into self-pity mode. You’ll be fine tho 😘

Comparison is the thief of happiness! Live your life and be assured things will happen per your timeline. Focus on your haves/have nots and not others. Keep working on your goals - make yourself better and closer each day to achieving those. About that analysis model that is due tomorrow get crackin’

I’ll probably get reported for this but damn do some of you all need a life. All you I see everyday is people crapping on other people for where they were born. This is a definition of bullying. You all pick the most obscure topic and want to start a competition over it. Life’s too short to have arguments with strangers on the internet. It’s nauseating, and I’m putting it mildly.
