Nothing Happens Unless First A Dream

In a world saturated with blogs telling women what they should demand, I find myself looking at things differently. For me, the key isn't about demands; it’s about polarity, growth, and deeply rooted values. My standards are not a set of expectations I impose on others. They are the choices I make as a person. They are the boundaries of my own character. Standards as Character, Not Demands To me, being kind is a standard. Being authentic and expressing myself without a filter is a standard. I choose to be open, to accept people's flaws, their insecurities, and their unique brand of authority. Generosity:I pay for a man’s meal. I give my time and energy because I can , not because I am seeking a specific outcome. Intellectual Integrity:I refuse to swallow an ideology just to please a man. I will share my thoughts and be opinionated without the desperate need to "win" an argument. Radical Empathy:I choose to trust. I choose to give the benefit of the doubt. Though m...

Life is a canvas painted by the choices we make. Every action, every word, every gesture is a brushstroke that leaves its mark. Karma is not a punishment, it is simply the rhythm of cause and effect. What you send out into the world, whether kindness or cruelty, will find its way back to you. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but eventually, the circle closes. The universe has its own laws, silent and unshakable. Our personal rules, our excuses, our shortcuts, they don’t bend the fabric of truth. It is not about thinking you are right; it is about doing the right things, the right way. Therefore, when you have chosen your path, you already know what your ending will be. There will be no need for explanations later, in heaven or in hell, for the body of your life speaks for itself. The story you lived is the evidence, the testimony, the introduction and conclusion all at once. And so, the story of your life is not written by chance. It is written by you. Every choice is a s...

Every experience carries a hidden blessing. A rejection saves years of wasted effort, betrayal revealed before children spares deeper pain, a toxic partner exposed before marriage prevents lifelong suffering, a breakup halts abuse before it escalates, and humiliation before commitment teaches resilience. These are all blessings in disguise when the end. It is far better to stand alone than to compromise your soul for someone who isn’t right for you. If people leave, let them. If they cheat, let them. Don’t waste your energy on vengeance or destructive thoughts, evil gains nothing. What you do to others, you ultimately do to yourself. Choosing yourself is enough; no one else needs to validate your worth as long as you’ve acted with integrity. Growth requires deep inner work and personal transformation. If someone thinks your empathy was foolish, let them. If they see your kindness as weakness, let them. If they believe someone else is better, let them, not because you are lesser...

We often imagine "evil" as a movie villain: calculating, deliberate, and open about their malicious intent. But there's a different, more pervasive, and infinitely more dangerous type of harm: the person who doesn't realize they are evil or, at least, they don't grasp the true nature of the destruction they cause. In the complex landscape of human interaction, it is easier to live or deal with a completely, openly evil person than one who operates under a thick layer of self-denial. Here’s why the latter is truly the scariest presence on earth. The Predictability of Known Malice When someone is genuinely, unabashedly "bad," they offer a strange kind of clarity. They are who they are, and they make no pretense to maintain a false image. They couldn't care less about what others have to say or think about them; they have no worry about being judged or having a bad reputation. They don't perform. They are scary, yes, but mostly predictable. You...

He saw her across the crowded room, a flash of vibrant color in a sea of monochrome. For Liam, it was an instant hit, a jolt of pure dopamine. His brain fired with the urgent message: "This feels good, I want more." He imagined the thrill of the chase, the quick gratification of her smile, the immediate pleasure of her attention. He felt it viscerally, a burning desire to "take" her interest, to cash in on this sudden, intoxicating feeling. His mind raced, already anticipating the next high, the next dose of excitement. Elara, meanwhile, was simply enjoying the hum of conversation, the warmth of shared laughter with her friends. A quiet sense of serotonin permeated her evening, a gentle contentment, a feeling of "this feels good, and it's enough." She was contributing to a lively discussion, giving her insights, feeling connected. Her happiness wasn't a sudden, fleeting burst, but a steady, pervasive glow that reached beyond the immediate momen...

Many people build theories about how we should change based on how others treat us. But the truth is, it’s not about changing, it’s about respecting choices. When someone shifts their vibe, it’s not punishment or betrayal; it’s a signal that values no longer align. Even if they are family, forcing what isn’t there only breeds resentment. Respecting autonomy means honoring the decisions people make for their own lives, without blame, without bitterness, and without trying to bend reality into something it isn’t. Life becomes lighter when we stop wrestling with the “why” of every event and simply accept that things unfolded exactly as they were meant to. No rewinds, no alternate endings,just the reality that what happened was valid, and that’s how it should be. Acceptance is not resignation; it is the quiet strength of knowing that the divine order of life does not make mistakes. Through it all, dignity is the compass. Some say: *don’t explain, don’t justify, don’t seek closure.* ...

The philosophical assertion, "What God has blessed cannot be cursed," speaks to a core, intrinsic nature that remains inviolable regardless of external trials. This concept finds a subtle resonance in the fate associated with the zodiac sign of Libra (Tula Rashi) in Vedic astrology, which governs balance, justice, and relationships. The path of the individual often revolves around an unending quest for equilibrium. Fate, in this context, is the recurring challenge to maintain internal harmony while navigating the chaotic forces of external relationships and the constant demands of the world. The pursuit of balance becomes a lifelong endeavor, frequently marked by intense struggle. To be a pillar for others, offering deep empathy and unwavering kindness, often means experiencing a painful deficit in self-care. It is a continuous, difficult act of weighing profound losses and endured pain against the imperative to remain present for those in need. The realization dawns that ...

We've all heard the phrase, "when the why is clear, the how becomes easy." It’s often applied to career goals, fitness journeys, or even mastering a new skill. But what if we applied this powerful principle to something even more fundamental: self-love? Self-love isn't a fluffy concept; it's the bedrock of a fulfilling life. It's the quiet confidence that allows you to set boundaries, pursue your passions, and bounce back from setbacks. Yet, for many, the "how" of self-love feels incredibly elusive. We might know we should love ourselves, but actually doing it can feel like navigating a maze blindfolded. This is where the power of "why" comes in. Imagine trying to build a beautiful house without understanding why you're building it. You might gather materials, lay bricks, but without a clear vision of the purpose – whether it's a cozy family home, a vibrant studio, or a serene retreat – the process would be directionless, frustra...

One of the most liberating choices I made this year was to stop normalizing what is not normal. By refusing to excuse behaviors, dynamics, or environments that undermined my well-being, I reclaimed my clarity and self-respect. This shift didn’t just protect my peace, it deepened it. I no longer carry the weight of justifying what feels wrong. Instead, I honor my instincts, set firmer boundaries, and surround myself with truth. Life feels quieter, cleaner, and more mine. Whether it’s a colleague who consistently avoids responsibility, a family member steeped in negativity, a friend who’s drifted into chronic unavailability, or a romantic partner who shows little regard for your needs, recognize that they are unlikely to change. Instead of waiting for transformation, choose to step back or limit your engagement. Protecting your peace sometimes means releasing the hope that others will become who you need them to be, and honoring your own emotional boundaries instead. Credit: My orig...

O, little pug, with face so flat and sweet, You are the rhythm to my wandering feet. More than mere words could ever hope to say, You are the brightest love that lights my day. The wrinkles, the snorts, the soft, appealing sigh; You are the one for whom my spirit flies. In every life, in every turning sphere, If fate allows, my choice is always clear: To feel your tiny paw upon my chest, To serve your needs, and put your soul at rest. If cosmic scales decreed a thousand births, I'd choose you, darling, over all the Earth's Great wonders, wealth, or fame; you are the prize, Reflected brightly in your melting eyes. You are the best thing that has come to be, The purest blessing ever granted me. My purpose now is simple, whole, and true: To dedicate my every breath to you. Your comfort is the banner that I bear, My first priority, beyond compare. Thank you, thank you, for stepping into mine, And making every moment feel divine. You are the fuel, the reason I pursue A life w...

Don’t make someone who offered you nothing but love feel like a fool. Whether it's your parents, siblings, friends or significant others. No matter how much kindness you extend, how deeply you care, or how generously you give, how someone responds is entirely up to them. You can’t control it. And you shouldn’t try. The most liberating way to live is to give freely, without expectation. What you offer will return to you in folds, though not always from the same person or place. That’s the truth we must learn to accept. Life is unpredictable. People are unpredictable. The best way to move through it all is to embrace each moment, dance with its rhythm, and allow yourself to feel the pain when it comes. Accept what is. Cherish what was. Honour what you’ve lived through. This is the remedy that has carried me through heartbreak, disappointment, and change. No resentment. No hatred. Just release. When you free yourself from bitterness and negative emotion, you carry less weight, som...

Kindness is one of life’s quiet miracles. I’ve survived,and found joy because I’m surrounded by people who embody it not just in words, but in daily action. Their presence is a balm. Yet kindness, for all its beauty, is paradoxical. Some struggle to receive it. Some receive but don’t reciprocate. And some reserve it only for those they love. Selective kindness; kindness only for family, friends, or favorites—intrigues me. I’m not judging, just observing. To me, if you’re kind, you’re kind. It’s not a trait to be rationed. It’s a way of being. I’ve heard people say, “I used to be kind, but I changed because others were cruel.” I understand that pain shapes us. It teaches caution. But I don’t believe it erases our nature. If kindness is part of who we are, then hurt may make us more discerning—but not unkind. We learn boundaries, not bitterness. Kindness is not weakness. It’s not about pleasing others. It’s about doing what’s right, even when it’s hard. It’s not conditional. It doesn’...

Loss reminds us to hold the present close, to truly see its beauty before it slips away. Death, in its quiet finality, teaches us that nothing lasts forever, and that’s precisely why each breath, each connection, matters. The path isn’t easy, but it’s not beyond us. So live with intention, love yourself fiercely, and honor each moment as if it were your last. Because truly, we never know when the curtain falls. #tillwemeetagainappa#foreverRadza Credit: My original thoughts, edited by Gemini AI, my original photo was edited by Gemini AI with specific details prompting.

“Have the courage to disappoint people if it means being honest.” At first glance, honesty seems simple, just speak the truth. But in reality, truth-telling often carries weight. It can stir discomfort, evoke anger, or reveal realities others may not be ready to face. That’s why many people hesitate. Not because they lack integrity, but because they fear the emotional consequences of honesty. Yet, living in fear of disappointing others is a quiet betrayal of the self. When we shape our lives around pleasing everyone, we risk losing the thread of our own truth. We cannot be everyone’s best friend. We cannot live solely to satisfy the expectations of others. To do so is to invite exhaustion, resentment, and ultimately, a quiet kind of despair, the kind that comes from not living life on your own terms. Each person deserves the freedom to lead a life that reflects their values, desires, and natural rhythms. Even within families, differences in temperament, preferences, and emotional n...
