Once a mistake is not always the same

There is a famous quote, 'once a liar is always a liar' which means, once a person did a mistake, the next time too even if he/she is innocent, is thought to be the culprit. But, do you think this is completely right ? Well, I don't think so. We all are humans and it is quite natural for a human being to do a mistake ignorantly. But, if he/she really regrets for their action, they deserve the forgiveness. 

To make this more clear, we'll see an example ; a girl at her tender age...perhaps at her 16 or 17 was involved in a romantic relationship with her mate. But eventually she had to break it up with him since she found his actions to be toxic and yes, they are not anymore in touch. Now, she has gotten over all that and she genuinely regrets for what she have done. But, here comes the obstacle. Her parents, who of course love her, turns against her for anything she does. Like, they suspect her if she talks to a boy and many more up to restricting her to go abroad for studies. 


What do you think of this ? You might say that her parents are right and its her actions which resulted in this...or you might think that is was her who broke the trust they had in her. But, just think of the same in her point of view. Even after a long time...after getting over all those past incidents, she still is being haunted of it and feels so insecured at her own house due to this ; the blames from her dear ones !


Don't you find this pathetic ? Indeed ! In one or other way, it may destruct her self- confidence which has the possibilities of destroying her career or family life in future. Of course, what she did was wrong. But she really regrets for it and ensures herself that she won't choose a wrong decision in her life anymore. And what else do you expect from her ?

Haven't you all heard of the story of Jean Val Jean ; a culprit of circumstances who later turned into a 'human being' ? Also about Valmiki, who is believed to be a great sage and the author of Ramayana, who was once a robber ?

All these examples prove that every person can change and what others should do is just to accept, forgive and support them. Forgive them for the past and make them believe that they can indeed get over and be a better person. Tell them that after all, past is past and it is the present that matters. Inspire them and just be with them. Trust me, it will bring a great change in their life !


Nothing in this world is eternal other than 'change'. Yes, once a mistake is not always the same.


Wishing you all to have a good day.

Thanking You : )

When attachment hurts

The hardest part of attachment isn’t always losing someone - it’s watching them drift away because of life. Not because they’ve stopped caring, not because they’ve changed as a person, but because circumstances stepped in. Distance, busy days, different paths. Suddenly, the friend who once felt like your everyday comfort now feels like a guest in your life. And it hurts in ways words can’t carry. The calls grow fewer, the replies slower, the laughter shorter. You tell yourself, 'they still care… it’s just life'. But your heart aches anyway, because attachment makes you sensitive. Every small change feels like a loud silence. Yet, even through the ache, you can’t deny how beautiful it is when such friendships first arrive in your life. The ones you never expected - born out of a random moment, a casual conversation, or sheer coincidence - end up carving the deepest spaces in your heart. These friends make the world feel lighter, like you’ve been handed a quiet gift you didn’t ev...

But still..

It is hard, but still… we go on. It is heavy, but still… we carry it. It is uncertain, but still… we hope. It is painful, but still… we love again. Because somehow, deep down, we know - life doesn’t stop for the storms. And maybe that’s what makes it beautiful. It’s not always easy to wake up and try again when everything inside you wants to give up. But you still do - quietly, stubbornly, beautifully. You may not even realize it, but that’s courage. Not the loud, movie kind; the soft, everyday kind that says, "I’ll face today anyway.” It is confusing - when people you cared for drift away, when plans fall apart, when dreams take longer than they should. But still… you find small reasons to smile; a good song, a sunset, a message from someone who remembers. That’s life’s way of saying, “Keep going, you’re not done yet.” It is tiring to be the strong one all the time. To be the listener, the comforter, the one who understands while silently needing to be understood. But still… you ...

The absurdity of suffering

Bad times don't just "feel bad". They feel like suffocation. Like something heavy pressing on your chest that no one else can see. I don't try to make suffering prettier than it is. Pain is real, and when you're in it, advice feels hollow. And yet, something strange happens with time. Some of the deepest insights I've seen in people's lives didn't come wrapped in joy and clarity. They came from heartbreak, from disappointments, from nights that felt endless. There's something absurd about how much we learn from suffering, how pain becomes a kind of teacher no one asked for, but everyone meets eventually. The existential lens does not sugarcoat things. Life has no built-in meaning. We suffer, often without reason, and sometimes we break. But within that absurdity lies freedom; we get to choose how we respond. The suffering may not be meaningful in itself, but what we do with it can be. That's where the human spirit becomes something fierce and b...
