YOU'RE VOICE MATTERS, EVEN IN THE QUIET

There’s this quiet kind of pain that hits when you put your heart into something, but nobody really notices. You share what you made, hoping someone will see it, feel it, or just get it. But the world stays quiet. Like you’re talking to an empty room.

It’s not about wanting a standing ovation or people always hyping you up. It’s just hoping that maybe, somewhere, your words could connect with someone — even just one person. And when that doesn’t happen, yeah, it stings. Not because you regret doing it, but because it meant something to you.

Maybe that’s just how it goes sometimes. Not everything gets noticed right away. Some things take time. Some things find their way to the right person when they need it the most. And while you wait, you keep doing your thing. You keep creating. You keep sharing your voice — not just for others, but for yourself. Because your voice matters, even if it only fills the quiet.

THE WOMEN BEHIND ME

Life isn't easy. There have been battles I had to fight every day—both in my mind and in real life. But I always had a person behind me, someone who pushed me forward no matter what. Even though she had a lot to face herself, she never let that stop her. Life wasn't easy for her either, but she always did her best to provide everything so I could enjoy mine. She never complained. Instead, she stood like a wall behind me—quiet but strong. No matter what she was going through, she made sure I had everything, to dream, and to live a little easier than she did. She is the kind of woman who would do anything for her children. Fight against the world? Yes, she would. Break barriers that stood in the way? Without hesitation. Give more than she had, stretch beyond her limits? Every single time. Her love had no conditions, and her sacrifices had no end. I’ve never seen someone as strong, selfless, and enduring as her. And I know I never will again. To say I’m grateful would ...

A SCHOOL THAT FELT LIKE HOME

People always talk about high school, but for me, it was my previous school, where I studied until 10th grade. I might be dramatic, but that place truly felt like my second home. I still remember sitting in the corner of the classroom with my friends, turning all the armchairs into a circle and sharing secrets, laughter, drama, and sometimes even tears. That corner witnessed so much of our childhood. We would get scolded for our hairstyles, for talking nonstop during class—but even the punishments have become stories we laugh about now. And the canteen—how could I ever forget it? That one veg roll we all loved, the way we’d run through the corridors and join the long queue, hoping to grab one before they sold out. Those little moments meant everything. Growing up has brought changes—new places, new people, and new challenges. But no matter how far I go, a part of me remains in those corridors, still laughs in that corner of the classroom, and still yearns for that one ...

THE FATHER I NEVER HAD

I often wonder what it feels like to have a father. I've seen kids run to their fathers with huge smiles on their faces, melting into their arms as they're warmly embraced. I've seen fathers waving at their children as they leave for school on the bus, waving until the bus disappears down the road. I've seen fathers doing everything they can just to see their children smile. I witness things like this every day, but I've never been lucky enough to experience them. I wonder if life would be different if I had a father like others do? Would he be my safe place in this chaotic world? Would I still be my father’s baby, no matter how old I grow? A part of me always aches when I see others happy with their fathers—not because I’m jealous, but because it’s something I could never have, no matter how much I long for it. Sometimes, I close my eyes and try to imagine what it would feel like to be held by him, even if just once. Maybe in another life, I’ll get the...
