On the Days That Feel Heavy
“If today feels heavy, carry it lightly. If it feels empty, fill it with the smallest comforts. A warm drink. An uplifting song. Soft clothes. A deep breath. You don’t have to fix today. You just have to move through it.” -Vex King Some days feel heavier than others—days when the world presses in a …
– You Only Life Once –
Ten years from now, make sure you can say that you chose your life — you didn’t settle for it. But remember… ten years isn’t guaranteed. Tomorrow isn’t promised. Life is short, and passing quickly.

Resilience Isn’t Born – It’s Built.
I used to feel everything. Too much. A shift in someone’s tone could ruin my whole day. One careless word, and I’d spiral into overthinking — questioning myself, replaying conversations, holding on too tightly to things that shouldn’t have held that much weight. I let the world get under my skin — way too easily. …

April 23rd, 2025. The day my world shifted. The day I lost not only my father—but my anchor, my teacher, my best friend. My Aba. Even now, it feels unreal to speak of him in the past tense. My heart resists it. How can someone so full of life, love, and kindness simply be gone? …
Chasing Perfection: Is the Ideal Life Just a Myth?
In many South Asian communities, life often follows a traditional script. Expectations are clear, and deviation is discouraged. For women in particular, there’s an unspoken standard—live quietly, fulfill your roles, and don’t ask for too much. Over time, this has created a culture where many live on autopilot, checking boxes but rarely feeling fulfilled. But …

—— Last Time ——
One day, you'll do something for the last time. The last time you hug a loved one without realizing it. The last late-night drive with your best friend before life pulls you in different directions. The last meal at your favorite spot before it closes. The last time you’ll set foot in a city you’ll …
