3 Years

3 YEARS TODAY! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 A timid me who absolutely loved going out & writing, posted the first picture right here. Not knowing a thing about how blogging works, exploring every restaurant by my self for 9 months straight day in day out, saving & spending & then finally getting a call for an event.

It is much easier now when I hear people doing dms or stuff. I come from the school of thought “let your work speak” , rest will follow. I didn’t even know how it worked. I had a samsung phone back. I didn’t know C of the camera 📷. I didn’t know anybody. & once it started out, it wasn’t easy.
______
It was SO HARD. Every picture you see, had efforts. Every picture came from a girl who was juggling education, her hobby & work. & TO TOP IT ALL, The choice to remain authentic. The acceptance when you know probably buying things would make you five times the success. The choice to say NO TO BRANDS as you don’t believe in it no matter if they pay a great deal to you. The choice to remain true to your LOVE & exercise this relation with all your heart. It is going to get tough.

Sustainability is difficult. You will have melt downs. But darling when you get a message saying how you inspire them or how a brand has loved your content or when a PR says that you have been one of the most authentic amazing people to work for, it is these moments that make you realise that you are on the right path. Even after so much clutter here, I have a crazy community out here & somewhere it feels home 🏠

I just want to tell you, it’s alright. Take the courage & START. What will happen? You might fail but darling you tried. But start what you love and what you really want to & not because it sounds fancy or looks appealing. Start. & START NOW. & THEN HUSTLE. Don’t STOP.

& lastly THANK YOU for being there through 3 years! 3 years is long to stick by to anyone, & I couldn’t be here WITHOUT YOU. To everyone- bloggers, PRs & my dearest readers, THANK YOU ♥We exist because you love us.
& to my critiques & haters, thank you. I wouldn’t have grown.
