Life is about simple things. Everything you do for someone else takes away some part of you from you. Do things because it makes you feel awesome and not because when you do it you are considered awesome by people who themselves have major insecurity issues. All of us have times when we get into the league of wannabes but realizing it and doing what Actually brings a smile on your face is what makes you different. Every person has the ability to stand out if that person only follows their heart and stays natural.
It is absolutely normal to love old Hindi music and cliché films and wear cotton kurta’s. It is absolutely normal to wear shorts and skirts if you are wearing it with an intention of being comfortable. It absolutely normal to have a Nokia or Sony Ericsson phone with an idea card if it works for you. Just because you have the money to buy a DSLR or even a normal digital camera for that matter stop annoying people buy clicking pictures of random things and posting it on facebook.Supporting a cause is not about wearing "Being Human" t-shirts, its more. A lot lot more.
It’s okay if you’re single and happy than being committed and miserable. All of us go through heart breaks and it’s not a public issue. Respect the love you shared with someone and move on with dignity. Let it be a happy memory for you and the other person.
Drinking and smoking and going to prive every other week does not for the sake of god make you the coolest and most wanted person in this world. Social drinking and smoking if it is okay for you is fine but doing it to fit in just makes you like the other zillions of people out there living their life and yelling out loud “Yes we Are WanaaBes”
