Her last word was “I quit” these two words have many meanings, and many senses are unfolded within an envelope of pain.
I see her battling within herself, from a lovely woman to a distracted, emotionless lady like a flower in a plant without any fragrance and beauty. I want her to live her life so I free her to find herself and the meaning of her life. We promised to meet again once in this life.
Her name is – Lyra; when you meet her, you may feel you know her, but the truth is she never shows her identity. You may see her as a selfish woman who only thinks about herself, but when you try to understand her deeply, you will realize she is not the same woman you met before.
She is like a wave in the sea, never settling for anything; she never takes anything from you. Like how a sea keeps only the sands and snails to decorate its body and lets rest other things on the beach, she is like that. She will welcome you with full of love without wanting anything in return.
Like others, she also wants to live with a dream; she doesn’t want to live in a cage, and her behavior resembles a bird who loves the freedom of life. She knows her boundary well, and she is fearless but loyal. She is a woman anyone admires but difficult to love, but her life is full of ups and down without doing anything wrong.
She always wants to marry someone whom she loves or who loves her truly, but she marries through an arranged marriage with tons of difficulties. She ran after selfless love though out her life; there was a point she gave up and started loving herself.
Like other women, she also dreams of having a happy family, even after doing everything in her life. Maybe something is not there in her destiny.
Motherhood is a precious moment in every woman’s life; after she lost her first child, she was broken from the inside, and she felt like an empty nest without love and a good life. Since then, she found herself from within.
She has a lot of trauma and hatred towards herself, which barely anyone can see, even though she never wanted anyone to show. She shuts the door of her pain from the outside world, as she doesn’t like fake empathy or anyone taking advantage of her weakness of her lousy life. She started a new habit of self-loving practice, which later made her life worth living.
A journey toward an uncertain destination –
Lyra, move out from everyone she loves. She was jobless with less penny in her account, and she moved to a place where she was not known to anyone; she wanted to start her life fresh, cut her hair, and live a life like a tomboy style, the look boys to men hate. She knew how to live her life without getting attached to anything. She joined a NGO, where she teaches the kids and takes care of the patients during her free time. She also practices Yoga and meditation to relieve pain and misery from inside. Within two years, she became a certified yoga & meditation trainer and social worker. She worked for UNICEF, visited many countries, and worked in many countries; slowly and gradually, she started earning good, adopted kids from the orphanage, and was busy with a different life altogether. She learned to live from a wealthy family to a zero-penny lifestyle. She moved on with her life, which no one could ever imagine.
Most often, society blames even doubt what a woman is capable of, if she leaves her husband behind, her life is nothing without her husband, but the truth is life never stop for anyone and anything. You have to survive until your life ends. Most of the time, due to this mindset, much domestic violence happens. In contrast, we always forget that many single mothers and many divorced single women still survive in society, hoping that, one day, empathetic people will give justice to their lives so that they can lives without much hindrance.
Life always gives us two options: live life with compromise, misery, and no self-respect but have a so-called family life with luxury in living OR a life with or without love, which may or may not have luxury but with freedom and self-respect life. What will you choose to live for in the long run?
Most of the women never dare to take the harsh decision even if they are surround with pain and misery. Sometimes we take decisions and actions according to our worst situation.
As human, we all want love, self-respect, and decent freedom of living. What else is someone looking for? If someone needs to comprise this, then what’s the point of that luxury? After a certain age, you can’t have daily sex even randomly too, but you need a partner to share your free time with daily gossip. After falling ill in a particular disease, you must stop eating certain foods for a lifetime. After having children, you started wearing decent clothes with no fancy makeup. After you become old, even a big house seems small due to mobility problems. The only thing that will stay with you in the long term is love and your habits. So make sure you adopt good habits and hobbies when you are young and find the love of your life for your lifetime. Friends will come and go, even relatives too except you and your life partner.
Make sure you have chosen the proper destiny for your lifetime when you are young.
