The myth of being yourself--- the identity we create vs. the one we live

The Myth of “Being Yourself”: The Identity We Create vs. the One We Live      “Just be yourself.” It’s one of the most comforting lies we’re told. Not because it’s cruel—but because it assumes there is a single, stable “self” waiting patiently inside us, fully formed, untouched by fear, survival, or expectation. As if identity is something you discover, not something you negotiate with every single day. But what if “being yourself” is not a destination? What if it’s a contradiction? The Self We Create From the moment we become aware of being watched, we begin to edit. Psychology tells us this is normal. The human brain is wired for belonging. We learn quickly which versions of us are rewarded and which are quietly rejected. Smiles earn approval. Silence avoids conflict. Confidence hides insecurity.

A letter to the nights I could not sleep

A  Letter to the nights I could not sleep Sleepless nights   There are nights when silence grows louder than any noise in the world. Nights when the clock ticks endlessly, but time feels frozen. Nights when the heart is too heavy to rest, and the mind refuses to quiet down. This is a letter to those sleepless nights—the ones that drained me, but also shaped me.

They reminded me of the weight of my worries, the questions with no answers, the fears I couldn’t voice in the daylight. But over time, I began to see that silence has a language of its own.

                          A Letter to my younger self Dear younger me,  Even in the depths of pain, healing begin If I could go back in time, I’d hold your tiny hands and whisper, 'You were never alone. God was always there, watching over you.' You are gentler than you know and stronger than you’ve ever believed — and that’s exactly what makes you so beautifully you . I know you are scared sometimes but you are braver than you realise. I know when you sobbed all night and there is no one to hug you other than  yourself.     I know those times when you feel like a burden on everyone ,when you feel like you didn't deserve anything , but it's not like that , the one who created everything , the sovereign of both worlds--- GOD   has always loved you.

WELCOME TO LETTERS TO THE MOON 🌙, This is my little corner of the universe where words travel like letters----some unsent, some addressed and some are written only to heal the heart...  I've  always felt that the moon holds a quiet kind of magic. It listens without judgement,it keeps secret in its glamorous light , it clearly depicts a sense of mystery in itself .   The letters that are written in midnight by the mysterious and unspoken thoughts in a beautiful mind.The letters--- not alw...
