  • The journey of life

    The journey of life is so beautiful, yet many of us have never truly seen it clearly. We cross paths with so many beautiful souls. We encounter others who are the complete opposite—people we’d rather not recall for even a second. And with so many more, our interactions feel completely neutral. At least, that’s what…

  • About life

    Do you realize how much we are alike? The same colored blood runs through our veins. The exact same kind of heart beats beneath our chests. How have we failed to realize that we are hurting one another? How small-minded of us to think we can treat people however we please. Some people don’t speak…

  • Unfolded Lies and Folded Truth

    The lies that are open to us. We blame others for our situation. We get angry when things are out of our control. We feel worthless when we can’t achieve what others have achieved. We expect something in return when we give. These are the lies we tell ourselves. But then there is the truth—the…

  • Why are we like this?

    Why are we like this? Why is it so hard to forgive someone who admits their mistakes and tries to make things right? Sometimes the hurt runs so deep that we simply don’t want them in our lives anymore. And that’s completely okay—you don’t have to keep everyone close. But please, forgive them, let it…

  • What is life?

    What is life? How do you define it? Is it full of pain, sorrow, struggle, cruelty, and selfishness? Or is it full of love, happiness, growth, kindness, and loyalty? The truth is, it is both. Your definition of life depends on your experiences, your understanding, your awareness, and how deeply you reflect on it. Throughout…

  • Be Present, Be Empty

    To feel connected, one must have an empty mind. An occupied mind distracts us from everything around us. Have you ever realised that you have walked the same path every day, yet never noticed the beauty of the environment until one day your mind was free? That’s how we miss so many important things in…

  • Imperfectly Perfect

    Infiltrated by anger, jealousy, ego, hatred, attitude, power, and money. This is us. This is life. This is the world. A world where lives don’t seem to matter. Money matters. Power matters. Selfishness matters. Revenge matters. The world is already imperfectly perfect. We just need to work on one thing: Changing ourselves. This is the…

  • When the Heart Won’t Let Go

    Have you ever realised that every part of our body is within our control, yet our heart is not? You want to forget someone or something, yet your heart keeps reminding you. It is easy for someone to give advice, but it is very hard for the person whose heart keeps going through the same…

  • Ignore and Miss

    This is what we have been doing all our lives. We don’t value what we have or realise how precious it is until one day we miss it—when it is no longer within our sight. The present society has defined life in such a way that everybody is rushing, competing, and chasing dreams. And in…
