One of the worst things is being made to feel like you're taken for granted. Where, you check up on them constantly, you're always messaging them, you're readily available to them and you change your plans to suit their needs and then they become too comfortable. They think it's okay to give you less time because you won't mind. They think it's fine if they take hours to reply because you're going to reply straightaway anyway. They think that you're always going to be available to them, so they don't need to change their plans especially for you. You're partly to blame for this because you give so much of yourself to the other person that they start to think it's okay to take more, want more and be given more from you. But you need to take this control back if you want to protect yourself. You can't keep giving and giving without complaining about not being given anything in return. Yes, love and friendship are not relationships that are based on a 'give and take system. But if you're the one who constantly put your all into this love/friendship and get nothing in return, then the other person clearly doesn't love or value you enough to invest just as much into you. One of the worst things is being made to feel like you're not going anywhere' so they can do whatever they want. Because that is wrong. Tell them when you feel like you're not being treated right. And stop putting your all into others, just remember —you don't have to fight so hard to be loved and you deserve just as much respect, love, care and time as you - give to others.

Nothing saddens and scares me like the thought that I can become ugly to someone who once thought all the stars were in my eyes

i remember this one time when she was laughing with her friends. from across a crowded bar, all i could see was the joy on her face and everything was quiet except for how she looked at me

though my soul may set in darkness, it will always rise in perfect light. i have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the nights anymore.

People often mistake self love as being selfish.
No! self love is to love yourself with a sense to care for others. Thinking about your well being, about your future, about your happiness, about your life and hurting others in the meantime is being selfish. Being selfless is the first step you do to love yourself. Try not hurting others, try loving others selflessly and then see how your own soul starts loving you :)

cause i never learned how to give a little; for if love was a raindrop, i'd create tsunamis.

There's so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn't. There's a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way, and it doesn't need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. Become a whole being on your own. Go on adventures, fall asleep in the woods with friends, wander around the city at night, sit in a coffee shop on your own, take your parents to their favourite places, leave notes in library books, dress up for yourself, give to others, smile a lot. Do all things with love, but don't romanticize life like you can't survive without someone's company. Live for yourself and be happy on your own. It isn't any less beautiful, I promise.

I don't remember falling in love with you. I just remember holding your hand realising how much it would hurt when I have to let it go.

If you're single & you have no desire to connect with anyone on an intimate level..it means this time is for you. For you to create, for you to heal, for you to find & discover more about yourself. For you to build a career, to chase your dreams. Don't force any connections...ur time to love again will come. don't be impatient about it.

Look from a distance
and you'll see the arrogance.
Look from the surface
and you'll adore the love
I have for myself.
Come a little closer
and you'll see the people
I had to let go of
to reach where I'm today.

You know, sometimes the hardest part is giving yourself the green light to move forward, especially when the weight of the past still lingers. It's like having a key to a door you're scared to open. But here's the thing: moving on is a journey that's meant to be taken at your own pace, a pace that suits your heart's readiness. And you might be surprised, but it's okay to start healing even if those words you long for, those words of apology, never come your way. It's like walking through a path shrouded in uncertainty, hoping for an explanation that might never arrive. Healing doesn't always need the closure we imagine; it's about finding closure within yourself. The truth is, we often hold onto the hope that they'll see the pain they've caused and acknowledge it with an apology. But sometimes, that closure doesn't come. It's a silent ache that resonates deeply within, like an unfinished melody. Yet, even in the absence of their words of remorse, you have the power to write your own ending. You have the strength to heal, to piece your heart back together, and to step forward into a future you're sculpting for yourself. So, yes, it hurts. It stings to not hear the apology you deserve, the closure you crave. But remember, you're not defined by their actions or their lack of words. Your healing journey is your own, and it's about finding the strength to mend and grow, even when the path ahead is uncertain and the apologies remain unspoken.

India becomes the first country in the world to land on the south pole of the moon. Fourth country after the USA, Russia and China to land on the surface of the moon.

Congratulations India 🇮🇳❤️

if you're a giver then remember your limits, because the takers don't have any.

they ask me about the calmness, but they never ask about the storms I had to go through. no matter how much i wanted to be held, no one was there, i had to suffer, i had to feel every painful memory and yet, put a smile on my face. i had to accept it, i only had myself and i learned that i was enough.

may those silent battles hang proud in the museum of our greatest triumphs : )

stuck in a generation where loyalty is just a tattoo. love is just a social media post. happiness is a myth. lying has become the new normal. and being fake is a lifestyle.

If they were really "the one." Then you wouldn't be spending so many sleepless nights overthinking about why they're gone.

May you fall a little more in love with yourself. May you fall more in love with those that lift you up. Maybe you fall in love with a song, a painting, or some words that resonate so deeply. Maybe you fall in love with a sunrise, a cool winters day, or a quiet cosy evening at home. May you fall in love with the sounds of children playing, the smell of a daisy or dinner cooking on the stove. Love doesn't always have to be with a significant other. Fall in love with life. With the small things. With the everyday moments. There is so much to love in this life, sometimes you just need to know where to look.
