Yesterday someone very fondly appreciated
That I inspire her to write
To walk that extra mile
And do what her heart desires
Her kindness made me self-introspect
If only my heart didn’t know how to weave the words
I would not have sailed the journey called life so far
They are the true calling of my heart
They help me express pain
They help me embrace pain
They motivate me like no one else
To keep moving ahead
Even as a kid
Separated from my parents
I found solace in writing
Writing long soulful letters to my mom and dad
As a teenager it always
brought me a special recognition
I often smiled to myself
Lost in my own dreamy world of fiction
Tough times knocked again and again
Losing mom early and seeing dad remarry
With my little brother crumbling
I soaked my pain in my words
Later in the roller coaster of life
When I decided to bid adieu to my dream job
Do you know who came to my rescue
It was an earnest desire to pen down my heart
That’s when my blog was born
To be the voice of the Quintessential Indian Woman
It gave me a purpose in life
which later culminated in grooming people in my academy
My writing makes me less emotionally dependent on others
For I pour my heart out in my weaves
Every time I feel down and out
Genuine friends it has given me, kick me out of my deep sleep
Even today what still keeps me afloat are my words
The joy in writing is so pure so divine
I experience a calm every time I have delved into the ocean of words
They have teleported me to a beautiful world
I have still not learned to write for others though
I write for myself and I feel that’s what genuinely connects
Obviously what is written straight from the heart touches hearts
Is what I have always believed in
Sometimes I feel like giving up
The excruciating endometriosis pain for the past 13 years
22 days a month as strong as giving birth
Drains me of life and I can hardly get up
But piece by piece I again pick myself up
Motivation comes in concealed forms
A wonderful online friend may just unknowingly drop a few words
Thank you my friend for reminding me of my superpower
