so far 2025 is...

So far, 2025 has been hard, maybe the hardest. Every past year was tough, but this one feels like it's draining the life out of me.

I left my job with hope, and it hasn't even been three months, yet I already feel like a loser. I mean, sometimes I even feel underconfident because it's been almost a year since I graduated, and then...

These months feel like three different lifetimes. I went on a trip in January, which was cool...because it was Kanyakumari. And then, again...

I lost my uncle...Something I never, ever expected to happen.

And now, I'm going through a tough time in my relationship. I mean, why do I have to go through all of this?

It's not like I'm sitting idle. I'm taking on-call shifts at a nearby hospital, thinking about a startup, and applying to hundreds of jobs. But still, I feel like a failure. 

I know, I know...I’m not a failure. I’m much better than this. But every single year, life keeps testing my patience and tolerance. At times, I’ve been dangerously close to giving up.

See, when you don't put effort it doesn't matter that much. But when you’re trying every single day, putting in the work, and things only keep getting worse...it’s unbearable. 

Sometimes, I go completely blank. Sometimes, I’m angry at myself for making the wrong choices. Sometimes, I cry for no reason...maybe because I’m mentally, emotionally, and physically exhausted. And sometimes, I’m full of hope, trying again. And I live for that hope.

Let’s manifest, wish, and believe that one day, things will turn in my favor. That I will become everything I ever wanted to be. That I will be happy...on my own, without needing anyone or anything.

  1. I also left the job before six months. Now planning for something big. Let's see what would happen next.

    Best wishes for your upcoming adventure.

  2. I was actually waiting for your comment this time.
    You’ve been a constant here for so long, and I’ve always noticed.
    This ‘planning something big’ line? Now I really wanna know what you're up to.
    I don’t usually say this, but I’d genuinely like to stay in touch like, actual friendship, not just random blog comments. Only if you're okay with it, of course.

    1. I'm glad that you want to hear the plan. I will share it, but first let me implement it. I'm too slow in implementation and decision-making.

      I can be a good friend. But you can call me big bro. :)

    2. Haha okay, big bro it is 😄
      But honestly, I’ve always been grateful for your presence here.
      It still blows my mind that a random person found my blog and kept reading so consistently.
      In the beginning, I genuinely thought you were someone I knew, just disguised or something 😂
      It means a lot to me that you've stuck around this long and kept showing up. Just wanted you to know that.

  3. I don't remember whether I told you or not. I only read your blog because I enjoy your writing style. I like the way you express your thoughts. I once suggested that you should write a book on an intriguing topic.

    1. I wish I could actually write something someday… like a real book. Maybe I just need a little more courage (and a bit less self-doubt 😅). But your words genuinely push me a step closer...so thank you, big bro.

  4. I feel that you are far better than you are today. You just need a positive growing atmosphere. Sometimes we have to create that atmosphere for self-development. I know you will do it. If you don't, I will make you do it :)

    1. You're right... I probably am better than this. Just forgot for a minute or a few months who’s counting?. Thanks for the reminder. Not sure how you plan to 'make me do it,' but hey, I needed the push.

Love is..??

Hmm... Love is??! Maybe love is missing someone, no matter how busy you are. Maybe love is liking the things that person used to like. Maybe love is an endless hope. Maybe love is that smile we get when we think of them. Maybe love is the pain we are aware of but still keep chasing. Maybe love is going back to the same person again and again. Maybe love is longing for someone, even when you know they won't be yours. Maybe love is finding comfort in their memories, even when they're not around. Maybe love is realizing that, no matter how far apart, they are always close to your heart. Maybe love is both joyful and painful, hopeful yet uncertain. Maybe love is confusion and clarity at the same time. Maybe love is...(you finish it!)                                                                  ...

Commitment Issues or Am I Just Lazy or Scared?

Okay, here’s the thing......I think I have commitment issues.  And no, I’m not just talking about relationships.  It’s about opportunities, jobs, and basically anything that requires me to actually make a decision and stick with it. Right now, I’ve got an offer.....a good one. And I’m freaking out.  You’d think I’d be relieved or excited, but instead, I’m just... paralyzed. I keep asking myself: Am I being lazy? Am I just scared? Or is it some weird mix of both? It’s not like I’m not getting opportunities. I am. I get calls, but the moment they come through, my brain goes into overdrive. All I hear is, “What if it doesn’t work out? What if I end up hating it? What if I’m just setting myself up for disappointment again?” I think I’m so used to things not going as planned that I’ve developed this weird instinct to just... avoid. Maybe I’m just exhausted. Or maybe I’ve been burned one too many times, and now I’m too cautious for my own good. Either way, I can’t deny that the...
