 A corner of my heart that still aches. And no one knows. I have never let anyone see. They think they know. I wonder if they really do. I am still unknown. 9 yrs... And still learning to find the words to describe it To describe you... To describe us... For the pain you endured and I couldn't see.  For  the things you did for me and I couldn't see. For the mean words I said and things I did to you for me being so immature. For the things I am still upset about you... For what I still don't agree with you... What do I say now... I am sorry. Thank you. You did your best. Does it matter now? Please forgive me for the hurt I caused. Thank you for everything you did for me which contributes to who I am today. May you find your peace. You will.... Bless me to find mine. I want you to live in my heart, Not as an ache but as a strength. I want to choose my own destiny. Bless me to move on..... Bless me to create my own path. Bless me Ma. Be my strength. Love, Pratiksha

 Is thinking about the worst case sinarios always good. Well it prepares you to some extent but what if it paralyses you. And that's what I used to do. Thinking about what could go wrong .I was thinking I am just preparing myself for the worst but it made me paralysed in many cases. And as a result,I didn't try new things. Life became boring. Lost the spark. Why ? because beauty lies in the unknown. Excitement lies in surprise. And knowing things in advance spoils the surprise. The only thing you need to know is you can figure it out. Even though you don't know how,now. But you will figure out somehow. That's the safety you have. And that's enough. Let the unknown surprise you. Let it fill your life with excitement. Let your spark be back. Let yourself feel alive again. Know that you will get the support when you need it. Trust that you can create your own support system. Allow yourself to flow. Let life surprise you. You don't know....What if it turned out bett...

 Sometimes, the people we desperately want to to understand us… simply can’t. And in that moment of loneliness, you begin to question yourself. Maybe they are right. Maybe I am overthinking. Maybe I am wrong. Without realising you are losing yourself in the process. Just because someone can't see you doesn't mean you are not there.  Doesn't mean you don't feel what you feel. Doesnt mean you don't have the needs that you have. Suppressing your needs and emotions because someone can't see it, doesn't make them vanish. What you  feel is valid.Even though others can't see it. But at least you don't be the person who dismiss, avoid or supress your own selves. Suppressing,neglecting, avoiding your needs and emotions never give a fruitful results.It may create a false peace in the moment but create a big explosion later. May you stop seeing yourself through the eyes that never saw you. May you see yourself even though no one else does. Love, Pratiksha

Show me who you are, and I will still hold you. You don't need to worry and pretend,  because I will still hold you. It's unfortunate that you had to wear masks remove it and I will still hold you. With your fears, insecurities, even with your survival mechanisms, I will still hold you. You can relax in my hold always, I will keep holding you. And that me is you. I will hold me always.

A recent incident that taught me a deep lesson… I had been wanting to buy anklets for a while. So I asked my brother if he could gift them to me as a my Rakhi & Birthday present .  Later, I shared this with my grandmother, and she lovingly said she would buy the anklets for me on my brother’s behalf. I felt excited. We went to a jeweller, someone from whom our relatives had purchased earlier. It was a bit late in the evening. I wanted a 92.5% silver anklet. I tried on 2–3 designs, but before I could explore further, my brother called asking me to return soon.  I was in a rush, and in that moment of pressure, I quickly picked a pair. As I was almost at the billing counter, I asked the jeweller about the silver quality.He said it's 70%. I was surprised. This wasn’t what I wanted. Yet, I convinced myself to go ahead with it.  Thoughts like: They’ve kept the shop open for me late... They’ve already shown me several pieces... It would be awkward to walk away now… ...p...

  𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗬𝗼𝘂? To do something,you say you want to do.What's really stopping you? People's opinions? If something truly matters to you ,would someone’s opinion really be enough to stop you? Or is it possible... that it doesn’t matter as much as you say it does? When we're deeply connected to a purpose, the noise of the world fades. We do it,not because it’s easy, but because deep down, we know we must. Think back to a time when you did something despite what others thought… Why? Because you knew it was really really important to you. So if you’re feeling stuck now, pause and ask yourself honestly Is this truly ,I mean truly important to me? Or am I holding onto it because I think I should? If it really mattered, you would probably be doing it already. And if you are not,maybe it’s not as important Or maybe you just haven’t found a reason strong enough to move you. Here’s the hard truth- Blaming others for your hesitation...
