Quote Of The Day
Hope you enjoyed this weeks quote of the day and hope it inspires your to chase some dreams.
What’s Up With Me?
I had a really great weekend and started watching The White Lotus. I really like it so far. It’s pretty popular right now from what I’ve seen online so that’s why I decided to watch it. I like the story at the moment but let’s see how I feel about it after season 1. I’ve also been watching the most hated Velma. Not going to lie, I like it. Is it the greatest show ever? Of course not. But it’s entertaining and silly and great to watch when you just want to relax your brain for a while. I feel like all the hate is kind of uncalled for.
To be honest, I just find being alive really exhausting sometimes. Like, being an adult is just so disappointing. Although I didn’t really enjoy being a kid or a teenager that much either. Life in general is just so not worth it. All those downs just to have occasional ups. Over time, it starts to feel like the downs last forever and the ups are just fleeting moments. Sorry about the depressing post (the quote is quite uplifting and the irony of that is not lost on me). Just keeping it real with my Lifesfinewhine family. Just needed to get that off my chest, feel free not to respond. It’s more for me than for sharing tbh. I just find writing to be therapeutic.

I’ve never heard of that show. I heard of Velma though.
Yeah, Velma has gotten a lot of attention recently.
Life is very much worth living, Pooja! ❤️
Yeah, it just gets tough sometimes! ❤️
I feel that way sometimes…
Love your quote! I haven’t watched “White Lotus” yet, but I just finished the second season of “Russian Dolls” and loved it.
Oh, I’ve heard of “Russian Dolls” but never seen it.
Those who find the most fulfillment and satisfaction in life have trained themselves to think positive.
Yes, it’s important to do that but sometimes it’s tough to stay positive.
I haven’t watched either of the shows and have been reading instead. I was sucked into a few Netflix and Stan series over the holidays and it is strange when they don’t exist anymore. I’m glad you are enjoying some light distraction. Hope you feel better soon. 😊
Very interesting, I wonder why that us. Thanks so much 😊
I have two pieces for you today, I drew them in 2020. First one says Dream Big, there is a flower of course, because otherwise how could anyone possibly dream. The other piece is a sequel, it says Grow Slow, and this one has a design on it but it’s not a floral design. Anyway, let me find them for you… BRB
Oh nice, yes I would love to see those.
I shared them via Instagram
Yes, I saw them.
Sending you all the uplifting vibes I’ve got today, Pooja!
Thank you so much!
Great quote and white lotus is on my list!! 👏
It’s really good, I’m sure you’ll like it 😊
oh thanks xo
I’m watching alice on borderland s2.
It’s great.

Life feels really boring sometimes Pooja. I mean, I feel I’m confused, I do not have any any clue and I feel lost.
Feels like I need to be a part of a club or a group of like minded people who can guide me.
Yeah, I’ve heard good things about it and it’s on my list.
.
Yeah, I get that feeling. It’s how I’ve been feeling recently too.
I think I need help, guidance.
What do you suggest I should do?
I ask as a friend.
I think if you’re really feeling down talk to someone. Either a professional or a trusted adult.
Hmmm thanks!
It’s just hard to convince my mind that I need help.
Yes, I know it’s hard to take that first step. But it’s important to do so.
I’ll try! 🙂
I loved the first Season of White Lotus. Haven’t gotten to Season 2 yet. Never heard of Velma.
I’m still at the start of Season 1 but it looks good. Velma is more recent and like silly but enjoyable.
💚 I feel it too.. everything is dumb sometimes..
Yeah, it is like that sometimes 😕
I am watching the last of us. I’m really enjoying it because I’m in to end of the world scenarios.
As for the adulthood sucks, it does, but there is good. Hope you are having just a sad moment and not a rough time.
I’m watching it too although I’m a bit behind and still on episode 3.
Thanks and yeah more of a sad moment than anything else.
Lovely and inspiring quote Pooja. Sorry about your down moods. Hope it picks us sooooon🤗
Thanks so much 🤗💖
I feel you. Being an adult is exhausting. We have to constantly live up to the expectations and rarely get the time to relax.
Hope you regain your energy back!
Thanks and yeah it can be exhausting sometimes.
Hi Pooja,
Setting a new goal means there are some features of this goal which makes it important from the previous other goals.
I like trying new things, new approaches.
Thank you for sharing the quote.
It’s better to be transparent, for ourselves, and people around us. :-)
Thanks and yeah trying something new helps a lot. Happy to share my truth so that people know everyone struggles sometimes.
“To be honest, I just find being alive really exhausting sometimes.” – Hi5 sister! I guess the ups pass by faster and the downs linger longer on our mind – which is why it seems like the ups are lesser. But yeah, overall not a fan of adulting and not a fan of this life thing. (Sorry I don’t have anything positive to add)
I’m glad you didn’t add anything positive, sometimes you don’t need that you just need someone to say they get it. That helps more than anything. Lol yeah, not a fan of adulting or life either haha.
Life can certainly be frustrating – particularly when things are not working out the way you’d hoped. It all takes long-term sweat and effort. But despite it all, life is great!
Yes, it can get annoying but it is what it is and there is always light in the darkness!
Your quote of the day is one, many should take on dearly.
Thank you so much.
Never heard of these shows, will check them out.
I loved the quote, though✨
Yeah, they’re both quite good. Thanks 😊
According to average statistics, I should be dead in 10 years. I don’t think I can finish any non-trivial goal in such a short amount of time. I’m already older than C.S. Lewis was. I can imagine on the day before my death I say “Eureka, I’ve found a purpose in life.” Then I start a project and die the next day — probably I’ll have finished the title. Oh, so then, my goal should be to write a dark comedy. Well, I don’t know. Y’know what they say about getting no applause doing stand-up comedy in a nightclub(in slang ‘dying’ means not performing well): “Dying is easy, comedy is hard.”
Having a good laugh, I suppose, is one of those short ups, and orgasm. Oh, maybe that should have a twin expression, “Orgasm is easy, Love is hard.”
And to have a hi high, you have to say goodbye.
Dying is easy but living is hard is I think what I’m experiencing at the moment.
I think Sam Cooke’s Song “Change is gonna come” is sad and good. “I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I’ve been running
Ever since
It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know… …”

Thanks for sharing it, I’ll check it out.
No, I have never seen white Lotus. Sorry you are feeling the way you are. Things will get better. Life is tough at times, but life is also beautiful because it is a gift from God. Keep your head up. It will all work out. I have never heard of Velma either. Have a great week. God bless you. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much. Yes, life is a gift even though it is difficult sometimes.
I know how you feel. It will be alright.
Thank you.
You’re welcome.
I haven’t seen The White Lotus, but will check it out. Love the quote! 😊
It’s really good so far. Thanks! 😊
You’re welcome! 😊
Another inspirational quote today, I share your experience of not being such a happy child or an adult, but reading quotes and blogs have really improved my quality of life
Thanks and yes quotes can really improve ones mood.
Keep those quotes coming my friend
We are on the same page about it. Being alive does feel exhausting but it’s worth living. Stay positive, pooja!
I’ve neither watched white lotus nor Velma, lol! But I’ve heard about Velma.
Not planning to watch either of them because of my exams!!
Thanks so much and glad you understand. Yes, concentrate on your exams for now!
You’re most welcome 😊
So freaking Trueee 👌❣️
Thanks 😊
So sorry you are down today. I have found that when I am down, looking at all I have is a real game changer for me. For example, we are now living in an apartment with a lovely glass door to look out onto our small yard, but also the neighbor’s wonderful yard. I am so grateful to have our own place! Also excited to be able to cook without worrying about cross-contamination from other people’s food gluten! Also grateful that the psycho ex doesn’t know where we live. Grateful for our healing and for my new work experience job at the shelter.
I know it sometimes seems that it’s not worth it, but truly, if you are helping others (hello lifesfinewhiners!!!) you are exactly where you are supposed to be doing exactly what you are supposed to be! We love you on up days and down! 😊
Yes, it’s always nice to remember the things we do have. Thanks so much! 😊
Agree…when will the ups out number the downs. Statistically, I should have all ups the rest of my life…
Haha same here
“I think people would live a bit longer if they didn’t know how old they were. Age puts restrictions on things.”
— Karl Pilkington
The world keeps telling us we have to live life on a timeline, but that’s a lie. Took me years to crack the habit though
Yeah, we always feel like we need to reach certain milestones by a certain time. But that’s really not the case.
I liked the quote because I believe that no matter how old we are, we learn new things. And because there are so many things that we can learn and do, that we can set goals to achieve. As for your thoughts on life, I can understand the down days seem to hang around more than the up days. I think that many of us feel that way about life. But because you have realized that, I believe that it gives you the power to change those down days if you really want to or learn from them. Good post Pooj.
Yes, I think we can always learn no matter how old we get. Thank you so much.
I relate to and enjoy this quote. One thing I see happening to other people, as they get older, is that they stop dreaming and kind of turn into a human NPC, following routines, doing tasks, and the spark behind their eyes (life, invention, whatever you want to call it) kind of disappears.
We should continue to learn, grow, explore, and evolve. Then we’ll be someone that others can learn from.
Yes, I’ve noticed that too. A lot of adults often lose that part of themselves and stop dreaming big. But of course, to enjoy life we have to keep dreaming and growing.
Thank you for sharing. It’s good to keep it real. Glad you enjoyed Velma. I didn’t watch it. I’m currently watching the tv show Parenthood. I’m into family drama right now.
Thanks so much. I’ve heard of Parenthood but never seen it.
