Quote Cafe – Thoughts In a Cup
Some stories wait until we find the courage to share them. Quote Café began when I found mine. A sanctuary of reflections, affirmations, and short poems on self-love, forgiveness, and letting go. This is my story. Perhaps you’ll find a little of yours here.
Within Quote Cafè
What is Quote Cafè– Thoughts in a Cup? Life throws us surprise curve balls. We all go through the stings and spasms to escape the nerve-wracking circle.
No exception: my life took a 360-degree turn with two major life-changing incidents. I was an emotionally shaken wreck with physical wounds. It made me question many things about my identity. I was miserable, merged into self-pity and victim moods, and blamed the world for the misgivings.
Many things were beyond my comprehension as I could not understand the reason and logic behind them. It made no sense to me; I thought they were baseless; however, they taught me one fundamental thing, never to ignore one's gut and thoughts. I soon realized that I needed to change the course of my wavering thoughts.
I had to find the felix culpa in all the mistakes, even if they were learning points.
01/18/2018, 11:16 pm, I was mentally disturbed with churning thoughts. The moonlight peeping through the window gently caressed my solemn face. I was enveloped with unstoppable tears and a lump in my throat. I picked up my pen and paper; thoughts became words, words became sentences, and sentences became paragraphs. I poured my heart out on the blank canvas flowing with the moment.
That was when Quote Café was born. I decided to be bold and share my story with the world, weaved with a blend of affirmations and short poems. Quote café is my sanctuary to express, emote, and write. Writing has taught me the power of silence, self-love, forgiveness, and letting go to heal at a deeper level. Every human has a story to share from their galaxy of vast experiences. Will you be brave enough to share it with the world?
Quote Café ~ my sanctuary to express, emote, and write a story weaved with affirmations and poems.
“Have these words stirred something within you? There's more to discover, more to feel, and perhaps a little of your own story waiting inside.”
Why Quote Cafè ?
I was tired of playing a character that was not me in the pretend game. I did not want cardboard cutouts to lean on. I wanted to release myself from the embellished company of deceptive mates and colonized relationships, as one would call them. I felt stuck. It was time for me to come back to my archetype, pull me out of the rubble, and rise high and above. I decided to light my lantern, dive deep into my internal ocean of raw energy, and radiate it to the entire space around me.
I recovered from physical bruises last time, and I knew I would from the inner disturbed bully this time also. My conscience rebelled. I grabbed the bull by the horn and said, “Monika, enough is enough; you need to be free from the unwanted shackles and bonds.” I needed to understand that ‘self’ is a peaceful revolution within me to uplift me.
