Life

Comfort

We try to find it in so many things, in so many ways, but do we really ?
When I was a child, I would never leave my house without hugging my mother. It would give me a sense of belief that nothing in the world could harm me as I left my house as a little child oblivious and vulnerable to the numerous and inevitable dangers of this world. And even now, every time I leave my house to take a significant step of my life, I never forget to hug my mom. It never occurred to me until not long ago why I did this. And when I gave it a long hard thought, realisation dawned upon me. I found comfort in my mother's hug. I found comfort from the nervousness and fear of what would happen to me after I went away from her into the world all alone. A way to conceal my fears and vulnerabilities.

We, more often than most, try to find comfort in everything, don't we ? Weather it is drinking a warm cup of coffee in the morning, or or snuggling up to your favourite blankets all soft and cozy in your bed with your favourite ice-cream or staying in the arms of the person you love. We are constantly trying to find peace in everything. And it's only human, isn't it ? Because we are constantly running in our daily lives trying to meet deadlines, to stay on time, to pursue our dreams that when we find peace, we cling to it as long as we can and try to feel every moment for as long as possible. We feel as though we could give anything and everything all at once to freeze that moment right then and right there. No wonder we keep going back to it again and again irrespective to what it would cost us. To what/who ever made us feel that way. That comfort and serenity. Even if it was just for a tiny little bit of a moment. We keep running back to it.

So don't stop what gives you that comfort and a moment of peace. You need it. No matter what or who it is. Mom, dad, brother, sister, boyfriend, girlfriend, going for a run, eating junk, hogging down buckets of ice-cream or starring at a wall or just about anything. Don't hesitate in doing it. You deserve it.
