 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

No Achievement Can Heal A Soul That Was Never Made To Feel Whole.

Your child is not your means of achievement. They are not your second chance at joy, success or fulfillment. Don’t try to live the life you couldn’t, through them. If that’s your approach, then no matter how “successful” your child becomes,no matter how much the world praises your parenting-You Have Missed The Essence of Parenting. Because the world’s definition of a good parent is deeply flawed. It celebrates results, not the roots. Achievements, not the emotional health. Trophies, not the truth. The real question is this, Have you built your child’s self-esteem or silently crushed it along the way? Have you raised someone who feels worthy or someone who looks accomplished on the outside but feels hollow within? I’ve met enough people who’ve achieved all the success the world demands,yet they carry this deep, silent wound-“I’m still not enough. I don’t deserve this.” And that? That’s heartbreaking. Because No Achievement Can Heal A Soul That Was Never Made To Feel Whole. Love, Pratiks...

True freedom begins ,the moment...

At the end of the day, I and only I am responsible for everything I think and feel. No matter what happens outside, my inner world is mine to lead. My true freedom begins ,the moment I stop blaming the outside for my inner chaos. Blaming others for my emotional state might bring temporary relief. But it keeps me stuck. Real power begins when I stop expecting others to bring me peace. Yes, people can trigger me. Yes, situations can be unfair. But how I choose to respond is always within my control. This isn’t about self-blame. It’s about self-empowerment. I may not have created the wound, but healing it? That’s my job. I’ve learned that emotional maturity isn’t about never feeling bad , it’s about knowing what to do when I do. Whether it’s journaling, seeking help, or sitting with my emotions ,I hold the keys to clarity. The moment I stop waiting for someone else to fix how I feel, I become truly free. Because responsibility isn’t a burden ,it’s a superpower. And from that place, real ...

The anklet I didn't keep but the wisdom I did

-

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...
