What you understand by self care, is to maintain your cleanness or does is sound like to have a good manicure/ pedicure or blah blah..
Self care is not reflected by all these things, it justify that you must have a sound mind. It reflect you are healthy enough that your mind protect any unauthorized thoughts coming to your mind.
How many time it happens when we create some unpredictable thoughts and we start fantasizing something which we shouldn’t .
And yes it happen with each and every individual out there. Have you ever thought why this scenario happen.
Yesterday I was in my office, I completed my work and was completely free. I had people to talk with me and the weather was mesmerizing . Everything was just perfect. But i felt something; something missing in me. Everything was good but some how i was not feeling good.
At 7 pm i left my office, and started walking towards my home (my home is just walking distance away from the office).
I found that someone from my neighbor bought a dog, I started feeding her and played with her. The didi besides me started telling me that why they bought that dog.
She told me that her father really feels alone and he always sat on one place only and don’t interact with other family members.Every one was too worried about their situation, then someone suggest them to have a dog.
And now its been two and a half month with henny (dog) they are living with her. And their father actually cure himself. He have started smiling and laughing more and more and become more lively .
And this is what self care means.; not to care your body parts only but to cure your inner-self. To have positive mind and to feel good in your deep inside.
You can join your hobbies, start doing something what you like. Playing with kids, cooking, having a pet, doing meditation, eating your favorite food. etc..!
This all will help you like no one else. Start roaming around and look around and capture the most beautiful thing you see.
life is beautiful and you too are!
take care of yourself; So that you take care of others
