Just when I decided to live a quiet life, I crossed upon a beautiful word “hygge.”
I never thought that being busy consumed my whole self to the point where I was totally distracted by the noise surrounding me. There are endless list of demands pulling me in different directions; away from the people that truly matter. I blamed my pregnancy hormones for it, but I came to realize I was yearning for more - more time for my family and myself.
“HYGGE” (read as Hoo-Gaah) can be envisioned differently. I envisioned it to LIVE by the moment. To leave my mobile phone aside and play with my daughter. To focus on what I have rather than searching for those which I don’t. To pray silently. To drink a hot cup of tea while staring at my plants. To think of beautiful thoughts. To be thankful for everyday blessings of waking up; being healthy; having a supportive husband; an eldest son whom I can talk to like a friend; and another small one coming along the way. The lists don’t stop here, it goes on each day….
This could mean less distraction, less people, less clutter; and most importantly less noise.
Perhaps I am getting older, but I am loving it. Believe me, I was more “ME.”
So, I asked my husband if I could do my pregnancy shoot where I can be with nature, to feel the ground on my feet, and truly enjoy God’s blessings.
After all, I know I am determined to choose my distractions – a healthy distraction that adds value to life itself.
My life is not perfect at all, but I am trying to seek inspiration in everything that I do with hope and positive feelings.
Love
