Totally get this. That tension between building something meaningful and just wanting peace, it’s real. Some days showing up quietly is the win! Appreciate this reminder. Wonderful writing 😁☀️

This felt so raw and real… like someone gave language to the quiet ache . Maybe staying, even when it hurts, is the brave part.

This is deeply moving. There are truly two or more voices in our heads that we need to listen to. It's difficult to determine which one is correct; we need both. I believe our brains tell us to rest on some days while encouraging us to tackle life with no remorse on other days. This is a great piece of writing, and I'm so glad to have found it.

I Recently had a conversation with a friend about this and we kept reaching a dead end trying to figure all our emotions out. And yea, we all wish to fully feel alive, and the answer is to keep showing up no matter what. You worded that so beautifully, i’m astonished !!

That poem carries weight. You wrote it like someone who’s survived something, and that’s what gives it shape.

You’re not performing pain. You’re telling the truth. Quietly. That’s rare.

This felt like someone put words to the ache so many of us carry quietly. The tug-of-war between striving and stillness is so real, and yet, the fact that you still show up? That’s quiet courage, and it matters more than most people will ever know.

I love this so much 💗. You literally captured the complexity of being human in this society so perfectly - I related to every line, especially as a creator who wants to keep posting and sharing but at the same time disappear and just be. Keep sharing your work - this was lovely!

I really relate to this! I’m always torn between constantly pushing myself to be productive, creative, and successful and just wanting to rest, breathe, and exist without pressure. Also I loved the line about being different people for different people. :)

To keep showing up in your half-lit, half-lost state? That’s not weakness. That’s devotion.

Maybe being “fully alive” isn’t a feeling, maybe it’s just not leaving yourself. Even when you don’t know who that self is.

Thank you for writing this. It breathes. ❤️

Through timelines. Through feed noise. Through that invisible space between being tired and still trying.You didn’t write a post you wrote a mirror. One that reflects what so many of us feel but rarely say: the sacred tug-of-war between becoming and being. Between showing up and wanting to vanish. Between the noise we post and the silence we carry. That line “you move on, but every move feels like dragging your heart behind your feet.” That was too real. You wrapped up an entire generation’s emotional tightrope in one poetic soul-whisper.And yet, in all that softness, there’s a fierce kind of strength underneath. You stayed. You wrote. You shared. That alone makes you a light in a world that often asks us to dim. Please keep writing like this. Not because the algorithm demands it, but because the world needs voices like yours, voices that honor the stillness, not just the sprint. Voices that remind us it’s not about constant output but about real presence.You are more than enough, Sinchana. Your pen has power. Your honesty has weight. Subbed. Following. Cheering you on. And truly grateful you chose to stay and share this.
