My life has been a journey marked by slight landmark, both joyful and painful.

A breakup from a serious, emotional intense relationship that has shaped my path in life. Love can be so transformative you would not even know when it happens,you just see it happening. I too have gone through a break up that has changed my worldview, habits and even my identity.

Reflecting on life before and after this emotional hearth break reveals how much a single event can influence the course of one's personal growth and development.

Before The Break-up : life had felt secure and joyful. My daily routine was waking up to sweet text messages on my phone telling me how beautiful and how wonderful it is to have me in his life.full of love emoji, smiling stickers, shared meals, future dreams and weekend plans. I found comfort in the idea that someone understood me and deeply cared for me.

I was deeply invested and believed with time and effort, we would build a future together.in hindsight, I realise how much of my identity was tied to that relationship. I neglected my family, friends and overlooked personal goals.i believed that stability comes from togetherness.

Images are mine.

After The Break-up : when the break up happened, it felt like I was going to die, my world has come to and end, it was as if someone was pulling my heart, and was trying to drown me in the water.there was pain, sense of lose. Confusion, thinking of what must had gone wrong, what happened to us, what happened to forever, if we could try to fixe things between us, our future .

Night were long and restless, days were filled with nothing but pains, my life was hollow.it was not just the loss of a person but also a version of myself I had come to know so well.life after breakup was like hell,but it slowly became a journey of self discovery and development. I began exploring old hobbies, rekindling with family and friends,for the very first time in a long while, I began making choices completely on my own, with our seeking opinions from another, started believe more on my self, started learning how to enjoy life solitude, going out on trips, meeting new people.

Images are mine.

I found peace in quite moments.i started setting personal goals. Improving my emotional, physical and mental health, focusing on my education and career. Finding me again has been one of my biggest achievements in life.
