🌿 “The Destination” — A Story of Awakening

For years, Mei carried a smile that no longer reached her eyes.

On the outside, life seemed perfectly in place — a stable job, a lovely home, and a marriage that had lasted fifteen years. But inside, she felt invisible, like a quiet ghost lingering in the corner of her own life. Whenever she caught up with friends, the message was always the same: “Be nicer to your husband, okay?” Even her siblings and relatives echoed it, as if her role was to hold everything together—without question.

Then one quiet Sunday morning, with no real intention, she wandered into a bookstore. A single book caught her eye: “Soul Compass: Let the Universe Lead You Home” The title struck a nerve. Without hesitation, she bought it. And for the first time in a long while, she read not to escape, but to listen.

That book led her to journaling.
Journaling led to long, reflective walks.
And those walks brought her back to herself.

She began asking the questions she had long buried:

— What do I really feel beneath all this anger?
— Who have I become—and when did I lose her?
— What if I stopped waiting to be understood, and started understanding myself?

Slowly, she released blame and began to breathe again.
She traded sarcasm for vulnerability.
She softened her inner voice—and eventually, her voice with him.

To her quiet surprise, people began to notice the change.

Not everything was perfect. Not everything was solved. But something deep within her had shifted. She came to understand her own wounds and silence—and found the reasons behind them. Her own healing gave him the space to begin his.

They didn’t need to run from the marriage.
They simply needed to arrive in it—fully present, both of them.

And that became her quiet truth:
Sometimes, the destination isn’t a new place.
It’s finally meeting yourself, exactly where you are.

With love,

Ever since middle school, I barely had any friends. For years, people called me fierce and too straightforward for their liking, remarking that my words hurt. Even my best friends frequently commented on my behaviour, suggesting I "smile more," and "don't be so straightforward, later it will hurt their feelings."

I, however, did not feel the same. For a long time, I pondered the thought that maybe they were right, that I was just being too oblivious.

These remarks only increased when I got married, with my sisters questioning why I spoke to my husband in "that tone", beckoning that I should "treat him better."
