Are you ready to hear a story about self-esteem and life?
Let me introduce you two girls with different lives who don’t know each other: one girl called Chloe that was tired of feeling different from the rest of the people. In contrast, we have Leela, who has an apparently perfect life, except for a minute to devote to herself.
Chloe’s life always was hard and lonely; she had to move to a foreign country to continue her studies. Since she was very introverted and insecure, she did not forge any relationship. Leela, on the other hand, always had a seemingly easy and happy life. She had a good relationship with her family, loved to travel, had many friends, and she was passionate about her work.
Every day, Chloe would dream about waking up and seeing herself and her world changed.
Chloe was stuck in the same routine: wake up, have breakfast, go study, come home, eat, study, escape with any technological device, sleep, repeat. At this point, you probably have guessed how was Leela’s life: her days were spontaneous and full of social activities and relationships, both inside and outside of work. However, every day when she went to sleep, there was always something that did not fit inside her ever and made her feel empty.
One day, while Chloe was as usual lying on her bed listening her favourite song, Leela was doing the same.
That particular song was made by a mystical group; the melody was made so that if two people with the same feeling listened to the song at the same time, their lives would be switched. Guess what happened when they wake up…
Because of this switch, Chloe's life was completely transformed. She was now surrounded of everything she asked for.
Chloe thought that it would be a good idea to adapt and pretend to live Leela’s life.
That created a challenge for her; she had everything she thought would fill her, but something wasn’t working. She started to realise that the key to be happy was to accept herself as it is instead of believing that external things would make her feel full. In the meantime, Leela who was very perfectionist and didn’t have a minute to stop, had a lot of time in Chloe’s shoes to be calm and to think about her frenetic rhythm of life.
Thanks to this change in perspective and pace of life, both noticed that they were the only ones that were putting obstacles in their paths. They were able to identify them: not accepting and loving herself in the case of Chloe, and not knowing how to stop and spend time on mental health in the case of Leela.
At the same time, the two lay down on bed and pressed play.
It happened again: after connecting with the new feeling they had developed during the exchange and listening to the same song at the same time again, they each returned to their own lives.
Chloe took a time to think about the exchange and the things she experienced in the process, and how she was and faced things before it. Leela also made a break. The exchange helped her to learn that it is possible to stop and dedicate a minute to herself, and more importantly, healthy and enjoyable.
Since then, It was at this moment that Chloe understood that she has to accept and love herself as she is and started to practise it, and Leela understood that she has to stop, relax and dedicate time to herself.
Chloe changed inside and as a result, her surroundings changed as well. Leela created a group to share her experience and help other people to connect and care about themselves first in life.
Some time after this big change, one day Chloe was shopping for cheese in a store, and suddenly, Leela entered the store and the song started to sound. The two had an instant connection and fell in love with each other.
