    If I had to share a story about someone who’s had the most beautiful and positive impact on my life, it would be about my best friend, my soul sister, who’s been with me for over 12 years now. We met in school, just two ordinary girls trying to figure out life, unaware that we…

    To me, freedom is not just a word, it’s a deeply personal and transformative experience. It’s the feeling of breathing fully, of living in alignment with your truth, without constantly seeking validation or suppressing your desires to meet someone else’s expectations. Freedom, for me, begins with liberation from relationships that confine rather than nurture. And…

    Well, it’s a question that stirs a lot of emotion in me, not because I don’t have an answer, but because the journey toward this answer has been anything but easy. You see, while most children grow up dreaming of becoming something, an astronaut, a doctor, a teacher, I, too, had a dream. I wanted…

    From my perspective, being involved in the community doesn’t always have to mean being physically present in large social gatherings or events, especially for someone like me who finds comfort in quiet corners, thoughtful reflection, and meaningful one-on-one connections. My way of engaging with the community is rooted in emotional presence, mindful contribution, and offering…

    Whenever someone asks me, “What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?”, my mind goes blank for a second. Just one day? That’s such a tiny window of time. How do you even experience a job fully in one day? I suppose if I really had to choose something fleeting and…

    Well… when I was five, to be brutally honest, I didn’t even know there was something called “future.” Future? What future? I was too busy living in the present like a tiny Buddha, enjoying my roohafza, running around barefoot, watching cartoons, and just being blissfully unaware that one day I’d be expected to answer deep…

  • Learning to Say No

    Honestly… not often. Or at least, not in the past. I’ve always struggled with saying “no.” You could say I was almost allergic to it. Being an introverted girl who avoids conflict like it’s the plague, I always found it easier to say “yes” and deal with the consequences later, consequences that usually meant sacrificing…

    If there were a biography about me, I think the title would be “Whispers of the Soul: A Journey Through Words and Wisdom.” Why this title? Because my life has been a quiet yet profound journey of emotions, intellect, and self-discovery, much like a whisper that carries depth without needing to be loud. My world…

    Valentine’s Day is often associated with chocolates, flowers, and grand gestures, but at its core, this day is a celebration of love in its many forms. Whether romantic, platonic, or self-love, the psychology behind love is as deep and intricate as the emotion itself. Understanding how love works can enhance our relationships, make us more…

    My dream home is not a grand mansion with extravagant décor, but a warm, cozy haven filled with positive vibes, a place that truly feels like home, not just a house. I believe a home should reflect one’s personality, and for me, that means creating a space that is soft, serene, and welcoming. I imagine…
