An honest journal of things that make life feel good :)

March 24.

At the start of this year, I gave myself three months to understand how not to react to nonsense, disrespect, and injustice, and not to sit with it longer than I should. Three months in, it has been hard, but I am beginning to see the rewards.

In this whole wild world, it often feels like life is merely about survival. I still wonder whether it is only that or if there is something more beneath all the noise.

The last few weeks have been a big downer at the Neel’s household. We’ve been bogged down by health issues—our own and our family’s. The air has felt heavy, the days slower than usual. At some point, we caught ourselves thinking, “Has life become this dull? This monotonous?”

What do you do when someone's 'joke' feels more like cruelty? A relatable essay on the impact of careless words, why 'just ignore them' doesn't work, and the power of finally drawing a line.
I enjoy travelling and making kutty memories. I also draw and write sumaar. I love reading anything about wildlife, space, history, mythology and recipes! :).
