Bye bye 2025

What I Lost

• My father, mother, and brother not to death, but to truth.
  I lost them the moment I named patterns that had existed for years, questioned promises that were never honoured, and refused to carry silence as loyalty.
• My husband  when I admitted that the emotional and financial security I once felt in the marriage was no longer there.
  I chose honesty over pretending stability.
• A few peripheral relationships  people who were comfortable as long as I stayed agreeable, muted, and non-confrontational.
  Calling out inconsistency has a way of clearing rooms.

What I Gained

• Resilience — not the motivational kind, but the quiet kind that learns how to stand even when the ground collapses.
• Emotional impermanence — a lived understanding of this too shall pass, not as comfort, but as fact.
• Boundaries — clearly drawn, non-negotiable, and no longer followed by guilt or justification.
• Voice — the ability to express without shrinking, editing, or cushioning the truth to make others comfortable.
• Self-respect — earned by choosing alignment over approval.
• Spiritual grounding — not borrowed from gurus or rituals, but discovered in solitude.
  When your most precious relationships fall away, you inevitably meet yourself.
  And somewhere in that meeting, faith stops being theoretical.

Jiska koi nahi hota, uska bhagwan hota hai —

not as a consolation, but as an experience.

Bye bye 2025 u were brutal but you were necessary. 

What I want in 2026 : A shoulder to rest my head on when I get weary and tired and  a pet that loves me unconditionally 🐶 actually make that just a pet , resting my head on anyone’s shoulder is just beyond me anymore : )
