Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.

-Mae West

 

While taking my bubbly morning bath, I looked at myself into the big mirror adjacent to my bathtub. Wearing the towel robe I stepped out of the water. I chose a pink shimmer palette out of my cosmetic’s medley and made a trail of glitter on my cheekbones with my finger. I stood there for a fine 15 minutes staring at my glitter kissed cheekbones; lost into very strange thoughts. It was kind of a daydream or whatever but it pushed me to write this article.  Glitter is the prettiest thing in this universe. It is a healer and a concealer. Glitter can hide all the flaws and can cheer up almost any living thing in this world. We all love glitter and try to use it in our life anyhow so I thought of wearing glitter for a day. Dropping my robe on the floor, I carefully started sticking exotic glitter to my naked body. There I stood sparkling bright than forever; ready for a magical day ahead.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are on a journey of awakening. Every day is a new day with new freshness, new sunshine, new attributes and new faces. We can never expect anything to be the same every day. This is how we melt ourselves into the mould of acceptance and thanksgiving. When I wore the sparkling glitter, I had new adventures waiting for me out there.

Glitter trail:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As I left my home, I left a bright glitter trail behind me. This trail turned many heads and people came to meet me all by themselves and gave me more respect and importance than ever. I showered glitter everywhere; drank wine, glitter kiss on the glass, sat on the sofa, Voila! A glitter stain. I was shocked but also felt butterflies in my stomach. People gave me sweet smiles and giggling waves. I loved it! I loved how exactly everything was and prayed silently that this might never end. Everything was perfect. I was perfect! Now, let’s replace this trail of glitter with your humbleness and dignity. Humbleness is all about giving. When you are humble, you are not a harmful element for this society in any way. This makes people fall in love with you because respect is always for respect. Dignity is about taking. No matter how humble you are, no matter how kind you are, never lose your dignity. Love yourself and give yourself the right importance because those who don’t recognize themselves can never make their worth. Humbleness and dignity are the glitter trail that you can actually leave behind you. It will surely turn every head wherever you go and people will always remember you in good words. Everyone will talk lavishly behind your back and you will get all the prestige and appreciation.

Sparkly handshakes:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I shook many hands and left them all glitter pigmented. It was as if I am a fairy god-mother who is casting her magic spells on Cinderella. Everyone was happy and impressed. They did handshakes again and again with me while their chuckles echoed in the air. Now, let’s replace that glitter pigment with pure affection and generosity. No matter how kind we are, we often lack generosity. We might love the people around us but sometimes we are not very lavish in appreciating them and acknowledging their value in our life. See, you do leave a comment on a post but forget to be generous and hearty in appreciating the blogger that put a lot of effort in his/her writings. Secondly, whatever you do, keep it pure. Flattery and exaggeration might please the other person for the time-being but it stains your heart badly. Flattery turns into envy and jealousy in no time. So love people and recognize their importance from the core of your heart. Cherish it and make their day. This will surely make people get attracted to you and you will have an amazing and genuine company for your whole life.

Shimmering fairy dust:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cuddled my pup and there he was, fur-filled with shimmer. Upon feeding the cat on the wall, she was also sprinkled with my fairy dust. The little bug that I touched on the leaf spike sparkled brightly in the sunlight. I tickled and giggled with the children of my street and they started poking me to see the magic happening. The shining lacquer was dripping down their fingers. Replace the shimmering lacquer and fairy dust with humanity and kindness. Humanity is the best of all the faiths and beliefs. It works wonders both for you and for this world. This world is established on the pillar of humanity and we have to continue with this magical belief. Humanity is for all, either it is animals, plants, water bodies and human beings. We have to be kind to feel the real essence of life. Humanity involves all the feelings and duties that you should perform being an active member of this society. You are born for a reason, find that motive of yours and accomplish your duties. Your behaviours affect everything around you directly or indirectly. So keep in mind, to be happy, satisfied and to keep others content. Serve as a human first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A hypothesis was formulated by the chemist James Lovelock and co-developed by the microbiologist Lynn Margulis in the 1970s. Lovelock named the idea after Gaia, the primordial goddess who personified the Earth in Greek mythology

• Gaia Hypothesis:

Gaia hypothesis hypothesizes that Earth is alive and it maintains the conditions necessary for its survival. Our planet functions as a single organism that maintains conditions necessary for its survival.

It provides us with information about the interaction of physical, chemical, geological and biological processes on earth. The beliefs of this theory are:

• Earth is a single living entity
• The salinity of oceans remains constant even when the river salts and acid rains etc could have increased it up till now.
• Temperature is regulated by clouds; one day it was extremely humid, the other day it will rain.
• Continents move, drifting apart on their crustal plates
• Earth act to regulate the flow of energy in it and recycling of materials.
• Captures energy in the form of heat for photosynthesis and life on earth gives us warmth that is I think a very motherly gesture.
• However, man is working against the natural processes of the earth so it could be perceived that these adjustments by earth would exclude man one day.
• We have a direct relationship with our earth
• When the earth was observed from the moon, it appeared to be alive; breathing oxygen, whereas all other planets appeared to be dead.

We can take an example here:

As the human body is a self-regulating entity and has pH, lungs, stomach, nerves, senses etc and if anything alien enters our body, it would be eliminated by our immunity system in one way or another. Similarly, the earth is like our body, rivers and water bodies are its blood, its atmosphere is its lung, lands are its bones and living organisms are its senses. If anything harmful enters the earth, it will exclude it anyway.

 

Glimmering hugs and cuddles:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My boyfriend came over to my place and we hugged and cuddled each other. He was amazed by his girlfriend’s mermaid transformation. My man enjoyed a lot and we played touching our fingertips, doing shiny pinky promises, blowing flying glitter kisses and leaving his lips shining with glitter gloss.

What if we replace the glimmering cuddles and shiny pinky promises with sincerity and truthfulness? Sincerity is the key ingredient for the pudding of relationships. This world will become a heaven if everybody gets sincere with the people around them and the relationships and responsibilities they have to fulfill. What a devoted world it would be. Truthfulness is like a surgery that hurts so bad but cures for life. It is a one time pain that eventually sets you free from every shackle of dishonesty and sufferings, fears and troubles. While a lie is like a painkiller that gives you instant relief but leaves it’s side effects forever. Always choose honesty and loyalty over lies and deception. Be loyal to yourself and to every person around you.

Glowing divinity:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the end of the day, the glitter started to fade away. Slowly and steadily all of it was gone and I stood naked in front of that same mighty mirror from where the story started. My heart started to glow inside my chest. I made this whole fantasy of mine. I have got the real power to write my own story. It’s innate. It’s inbuilt, so why underestimate ourselves? If we replace this glowing heart with two secret magic potions of loving yourself and willpower, we can live our life with flying colours. True divinity always comes from within and nothing is more powerful than the wonders of willpower and self-confidence. This world is revolving around you not you revolving around it. If YOU are not there, nothing is! Keep yourself, love yourself, own yourself and deserve yourself. Be who you are rather than being someone else. Lady Gaga is here to save the day:

Masterpiece singer Jessie J. writes in her famous song:

Fairy words:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You all have a magical jar full of eye-popping glitter inside your soul. Just find the secret place where that magical jar is hidden deep inside your pretty self and invert it on your body and soul. After wearing glitter for a day, I transformed it into magical words of good behaviors, kind heart, love, affection, loyalty, honesty, modesty, sincerity, devotedness, humbleness, charity heart, and humanity. Now it’s your turn to wear glitter for a day and bleed glitter <3 

I wish you all a happy and a magical life full of glitters and fireworks. Best wishes and much love to all the people who love and support me with their kind words of appreciation and sunshine. Happy Glittering munchkins! 🙂
