I Gave Him All

Rasna Malathari

Distance, Silent, Eye Contact
He looked, I did not dare
His Touch, I did not feel

It's A Sin, Distance
It's Forbidden, Silence

But Love, His Eyes
Attention, Gave Him All

Begged, Mistreated, Ghosted
Ego hurt, I Gave him all

End up, Giving Myself Away

Limerence: Breaking the Illusion of Obsessive Attachment

Image
  Limerence is not love, though it wears its mask. It is not intimacy, though it promises closeness. It is not devotion, though it demands loyalty. Instead, limerence is the storm of the mind a pattern of obsessive fixation, intoxicating highs, and destabilizing lows that captivate the heart yet erode its strength. At its core, limerence is a mirror reflecting not the other, but the self’s unhealed wounds. It is the hunger for recognition projected onto another face, the yearning for validation disguised as romance.

The Architecture of Limerence To dismantle limerence, one must first see its design. It is a structure built from three fragile pillars: idealization, inconsistency, and longing . Idealization paints the other with impossible colors. Their flaws fade beneath the brushstrokes of fan...

People Sent for Healing: When Triggers Become Teachers

Understanding Emotional Alchemy Through Human Encounters There are moments when the universe speaks, not through stars or storms, but through people—those unexpected, uncomfortable, often aggravating encounters that rattle something deep within us.

Not to harm us, but to stretch us, press into our blind spots, and invite our deeper becoming. To the untrained eye, a trigger feels like an offense, a disruption. But underneath, it is often a disguised invitation—a coded message from the soul asking to be heard, seen, and understood. When we learn to sit with the discomfort instead of lashing out or withdrawing, we begin to decode the wisdom these human messengers bring. The Role of Triggers in Healing Healing is rarely gentle. It is not always cloaked in softness or light. Sometimes it comes cloaked in confrontation, tension, silence, or rejection. The very p...

Choosing the Day Again: How Optimism Becomes a Daily Practice

There is a moment each morning when the day is still undecided. Before the chaos arrives, before expectations and interruptions claim their space, there is a brief window of choice. In that space, many people decide, sometimes consciously, sometimes by habit, that today will be better. That today will be handled differently. That they will show up with intention. And yet, it often takes very little to test that resolve. A minor disruption, a misplaced word, a sudden discomfort, something small can feel disproportionately powerful, capable of collapsing the optimism that was carefully set at the start. This is completely normal. The nervous system responds faster than logic, and emotions rise before meaning is made of them. What matters is not the interruption itself, but what follows. The Fragility and Strength of a Good Start Optimism is often misunderstood as denial, as though choosing a positive outlook requires ignoring what feels unpleasant or inconvenient. In reality, optimism is...
