Watch this gripping video by Author Glennon Doyle Melton to learn the art of accepting ourselves to lead an authentic and meaningful life.
It takes a lot of courage to leave the crowd and find your way home to a place called authenticity. Living life fully and completely is a blessing that very few get to experience during their lifetime. Life is a huge grinding mill that spares none. In a strife torn world of ours, it is very common to find people getting disillusioned with the whole concept of life.
Hassled by the trials and tribulations they face, people remain stuck in the shell they create for themselves. Swamped by feelings of depression and helplessness, they fear chartering the unknown. They refuse to budge from their existing circumstances.
Glennon Doyle Melton, in her video, talks about how she battled the emotional paralysis that had taken her in its grip for so long. She is a recovering bulimic, alcohol and a drug user. Her story encourages everyone to take charge of their lives by letting go of the fears and drenching in the spirit of life.
According to her, this can be done when people accept each other the way they are. Human beings are vulnerable species. It is absolutely acceptable to have our own phobias and expressing them is the best way to mitigate it.
Watch the following video that urges us all to awaken from living a mundane life to a masterful one.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
