The Hardest Lesson I Learned Before Turning 18 . AI-Generated.
Life has a funny way of teaching lessons, doesn’t it? Sometimes, it nudges you gently. Other times, it smacks you in the face when you least expect it. For me, the hardest lesson I ever learned happened in my final year before turning 18—a lesson about trust, independence, and the realization that not everyone has your back the way you hope they do.

The Emotional Battle of Acne: Inside the Mental Health Connection
Acne can be physically and emotionally painful, but the mental damage it does is often not seen. The struggle with breakouts is more than a skin condition; for those who understand this struggle, the emotional toll it takes needs no explanation.

The Power of a Pure Heart. AI-Generated.
The Power of a Pure Heart Life is like a shallow river, constantly flowing through twists and turns, overcoming obstacles along the way. During this journey, negative thoughts, hatred, jealousy, and the ripples of failure surround us like murky waters. Many individuals allow themselves to be consumed by these turbulent waves, losing their true selves. However, some people rise above these waves, keeping their hearts pure, for their intentions are sincere, and their minds remain untainted.

An ode to my wanderlust- my recent travel reflections
The darkness that surrounds the storm is often the most turbulent period of hardships that embellish us into the trance of not knowing what to do. I learnt the lessons of patience, virtue and gratitude from the darkest periods of my life. Life has its ways of embracing us in its wisdom, staggering us into the whirlwinds of challenges and adversities, only to gift us with peonies of hope. Hope can metamorphose mountains of hatred into the galloping beauty of existence that showers us with the narrative of self-belief and confidence. It is often in a wanderlust away from our daily surroundings that we realize the wonder that the world we live in has to offer. Forgiveness after a storm is like accepting the catastrophe without denying the damage it has done. It is painful but necessary to survive, to thrive in our lives.

True Words and Masks"
"True Words and Masks" Some people have a strange habit—while they speak sweetly to your face, laugh with you, and treat you well, behind your back, they speak ill about you. Their sweet words, their smiles, and their kind actions build trust in your heart. But at the same time, you fail to realize the false pretence behind those sweet words. Those words make you believe in their sincerity, but behind your back, the same people are criticizing you. There is a terrifying contradiction in this behaviour.

"Who Am I?" - The Illusion of Ego
"Who Am I?" - The Illusion of Ego The question, "Who am I?" is a timeless and profound query that every human being contemplates at some point in life. It's not just a philosophical question but a reflection of our innermost thoughts and existence. In seeking its answer, we are often hindered by our ego, a part of our psyche that shrouds our true self in layers of illusion. The ego, in essence, acts as a protective emotional shell, giving us a false sense of identity and importance, making us feel superior to others. But when examined closely, we realise that this notion of "I" is nothing but a mirage, a fleeting concept that does not define our true being. In reality, each of us is a small yet integral part of a vast, interconnected universe.

"It Takes a Big Heart to Apologize"
"It Takes a Big Heart to Apologize" No matter how much a person learns in life, there are two things that take a long time to master: forgiving others and apologising. For this, one needs a big heart. Apologising means acknowledging one’s mistake or putting one’s pride aside to respect the emotions of the other person, in order to preserve the relationship. Not everyone can do this, because it requires a big heart and, even more, a compassionate heart that understands others’ feelings.

"I Am Good if the World is Good"
"I Am Good if the World is Good" The phrase "I am good if the world is good" reflects a universal truth: our actions, attitudes, and behaviours are often influenced by our surroundings. If we find ourselves in a world that is kind, compassionate, and supportive, we are more likely to mirror these qualities. This is a powerful idea rooted in the interconnected nature of human existence, where our individual goodness often reflects the collective goodness we experience. However, the journey to understanding this concept is complex, involving both the warmth we receive and the darkness we face in the world.
