6th May— The day my world shifted,
When something beautiful unfolded,
And everything changed. ♥️
This time, it’s Mithi—the heart of Thar. The time is 4:35 a.m. And the feeling? It’s not easy to describe. It’s a strange blend of calm and wonder… a quiet kind of joy that runs deep. A happiness with questions—how did I get here? How did all of this unfold? How did time slip by so quickly?
I’m a little lost in thought, maybe even confused—but not in a sad way. Just… still. Quiet. Grateful.
The silence in this room is different. It speaks louder than words. There’s peace in my heart. A cool breeze brushes past me, and the sky is still dark. It’s May, and it’s raining here in Mithi—a rare and beautiful thing. Just days ago, it was unbearably hot, and I was anxious about being here. I came for a few days to attend a family event. But life, as always, had its own plans. And now, it feels like the universe is gently whispering, “Trust me.”
It’s been a year since I started my job. That alone feels like a whole chapter. And now, within hours, one of the biggest events in my family is going to unfold. Everything is happening at once—just like it always does when life decides to move.
Last year, around the same time, I wrote from my heart. I let my feelings speak, and I trusted in the Almighty. And here I am again—writing, not for anyone else, but for me. For the version of me that might feel lost someday. The one who might need this reminder. I know, deep down, that when I read this again in the future, I’ll smile. My heart will feel full, and my faith will be restored.
Because this is what life is. Time passes. It doesn’t stop for joy, and it doesn’t pause for pain. It just keeps moving. And maybe that’s the most beautiful part—nothing lasts forever, not even the bad days.
Someone once told me, “Time flies when you’re having fun and enjoying life.” And that hit me hard. Maybe this is what it means—to be present. To stop running. To just be here. Maybe that’s the secret… to stop chasing happiness and start noticing it in the smallest, quietest moments.
So today, I remind myself: don’t run after the future. Don’t let the past steal your now. This moment, right here, right now—is where life is. It may not be perfect, but it’s yours.
Be proud of the person you’re becoming. Be proud of the battles you’ve fought silently. Be proud of the way you’ve kept going, even when it was hard. You are not perfect—but you are real, and you are growing.
And that… that is more than enough.
