Scribble Scape 🌻

Have you ever felt like the world is just one big ball of stress, waiting to roll you over? I know I have. With everyone on edge and life throwing curveballs left and right, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But recently, I found a bit of relief in the most unexpected place—at a stand-up comedy show. I attended Anshu Mor’s show, “Clarity,” and let me tell you, I walked in expecting some laughs, but I left with so much more. Anshu didn’t just crack jokes; he used humor as a way to address the everyday irritations and bigger issues that we all face. It was like he took all the stress and frustration we carry around, put it on stage, and then made us laugh at it. And honestly, that felt like such a relief. Imagine sitting there, nodding along as he talks about things that annoy us all—like endless WhatsApp forwards or people who never reply on time—and then suddenly, he’s making you laugh about it. It’s almost like he’s saying, “Yeah, life’s annoying, but why not laugh at the absurdity of it...

You know that moment when you're scrolling through social media, and suddenly, you feel like your life is in shambles? Like, one second, you're sipping on your coffee, feeling good about your day, and the next, you're wondering why your latte doesn't look as fancy as *that* influencer's? Yeah, we've all been there. Welcome to the vicious cycle of comparison, folks—a ride nobody wants, but we somehow keep getting on anyway.  •The Sneaky Trap of Comparison It's sneaky, right? You don't even see it coming. One minute you're fine, and the next, you're deep into comparing your life, achievements, and even your dog to someone else's Instagram-perfect world. And the more you compare, the worse you feel. It's like adding fuel to a fire you didn't even know you were starting. But here's the kicker—we often forget to practice gratitude. It's like we misplace our gratitude goggles somewhere in the middle of all the scrolling. We forget t...

There’s something about that first sip of coffee that feels like a warm hug for your soul. Whether it’s the rich aroma or the comforting warmth of the cup in your hands, coffee has a reputation for being the go-to stress buster. But is it really the caffeine doing the heavy lifting, or is it just the perfect excuse to sit alone and sort out the mental chaos? We all have those days where the world seems a little too loud, the tasks a little too many, and the nerves a little too frazzled. Enter coffee—our trusty sidekick that promises to make everything better, or at least more tolerable. The science backs it up too: caffeine is a stimulant that can boost your mood, improve concentration, and even reduce the perception of pain. No wonder it’s hailed as the magical elixir that helps us power through the day. But let’s not kid ourselves—coffee isn’t just about the caffeine. There’s a whole ritual around it that’s almost meditative. The act of brewing a cup, the familiar sound of the coffee...

Letting go seems simple—just make the decision and move on, right? But when you actually try, everything starts to feel off. That favorite song now feels empty, your daily routine feels strange, and even your conversations seem disconnected. The truth is, letting go isn’t just about moving on from one thing; it’s about reworking everything that was tied to it. It shakes up your comfort zone, making you feel lost even in the most familiar places.  But with time, the things that felt wrong start to settle again. New routines form, and life regains its rhythm. Letting go is hard because it disrupts your world, but it also gives you a chance to rebuild it in a way that fits who you are now.

Self-care. Just hearing the term makes it sound like it should be a walk in the park, right? I mean, how hard can it be to prioritize yourself? Spoiler alert: it’s not a walk in the park—it’s more like a roller coaster ride in an amusement park with no map. And sometimes, you’re just hanging on for dear life. Let’s be real. The journey of self-care is like trying to untangle a pair of earphones that have been in your pocket for a week. You know it’s possible, but there are moments when you seriously doubt if it’s worth the effort. And just when you think you’ve got it figured out, life throws you a curveball, and you’re back to square one, tangled and frustrated. **Stage One: The Realization** The first step on this journey is realizing you need to prioritize yourself. This usually comes after a series of unfortunate events—like burning out at work, having a mini-meltdown because someone ate your lunch (again), or just feeling like you’re constantly on edge. Cue the dramatic, “I need t...
