The pain smile hides

It's been a while since I've been going through a tough phase in my life. And I'm not yet over it even while I write this. Which means, with a heavy heart and tears in the eyes, I'm writing this...

I used to believe that the people I meet will be with me atleast at this very moment, though not for a very long period. But now I realize that it's not true. I wish you all could realize that too. 


Have you ever looked at your chat box or contact list and wondered how many people are there, who really know your situation? Ever wished for someone amongst them to turn up for letting all your burdens out ? Ever thought that they're not even giving you atleast half of the time you've given them?

I'm sure that you would have had all these questions at some point. The moment when there is no one to hear us like we did; it cannot be forgotten so easily. 


Though you help others with good thoughts and good paths to follow, every human would have the moments when they feel exhausted, feel lonely, feel helpless or feel clueless about what to do in life. It'll be at these points, people realize the fact that they actually are alone to fight in their lives. 

Dear all, you are a good human being. Because, you try to give your precious time for others; you listen to them, you provide them with good things and give them your smile. 

But that fact you should accept is, all that you give might not be returned. They might not be with you, though they say that they will.


There might not be anyone to console you. Not a single one might be there to give you a hug when you cry out loud. 

So, this is life. Everyone lives their life with their own pains. They just hope everything to be fine and move on. Some might laugh at others' and say that their's is even harder. But, not any pain is less and it's just them, who knows what they go through. 


Writing this amidst the pain, is to tell you something. If you haven't seen them for a while, try to look for them. If you know they're hurt, try to be with them. Because, some of your friends must be crying inside just like I do. 

Afterall we're all humans. Try to understand each other. If not us, who else can...?


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...
