You Will Rise Again: A Letter to Anyone Who’s Struggling


There are seasons in life that break us into pieces — moments when everything feels like it’s falling apart, and the weight of the world becomes too heavy to bear. If you’ve ever felt abandoned in your darkest hour, if you've cried behind closed doors because you didn’t want to burden anyone — this post is for you.

This isn’t just your story. It’s a quiet truth many of us live with but rarely speak aloud. We often hide our pain behind a smile, trying to convince the world, and maybe even ourselves; that we’re as light and carefree as a butterfly.

When People Disappear in Your Pain

It’s in our lowest moments that we often find ourselves alone. Not because we chose to be — but because people slowly distance themselves. Maybe they don’t know what to say. Maybe our struggle makes them uncomfortable. Or maybe, it’s simply easier for them to walk away than to stand with us in the fire.



That hurts more than the hardship itself. The silence, the space, the absence — it echoes louder than the pain. And yet, that is part of life. Unfiltered. Raw. Sometimes deeply unfair.

But You Still Have a Choice

You may not be able to change your situation, but you can choose your response. Even in the chaos, even when everything feels out of control — you still have power. You can breathe through the pain. You can speak kindly to yourself. You can keep moving, even if it’s just one small step at a time. There is strength in the decision to stay; to keep showing up for yourself when no one else does.

The Stories Behind Every Smile

It’s easy to look at others and think they have it all together. We admire their peace, their success, their confidence. But behind every glowing smile is a story. And more often than not, that story is filled with tears no one saw, battles no one knew about, and a strength built in the silence of long, lonely nights. No one escapes life’s hardships. Some just learn how to transform pain into purpose.

The Beauty in the Broken

Life isn’t beautiful because it’s easy. It’s beautiful because we survive. We grow. We adapt. We learn to feel deeply and still rise. Your struggles do not make you weak ; they make you real. They make you human. And in that rawness, there’s power. Because the truth is, not everyone will understand your journey, but that doesn’t make it less valid or important.

You Are Not Alone

Whatever you’re going through, no matter how messy, painful, or hopeless it feels — it will pass. Your patience, your honesty, your quiet strength — they matter. Life has a way of rewarding those who hold on when it would be easier to let go. The storm won’t last forever. The light will return. And when it does, you will rise — wiser, softer, stronger.

Believe in Yourself, Always

Don’t hide from your struggle. Let it shape you. Let it teach you. Let it remind you that even in your darkest moments, you are still becoming who you are, you are still growing even in the coldest season because you deserved to be dreaming. There is a reason behind your existence and you are a creature of the almighty hero. You are not broken. You are becoming who you  really are. Keep on trust on you, always believe in yourself. You will rise higher and higher and see the true strength of yourself own life!

FIWNA Successfully Conducts 6th Virtual Interaction on Gurung Women’s Wool Weaving Skills and Cultural Significance


 

The Federation of Indigenous Women of Nepal in America (FIWNA) successfully conducted its sixth virtual interaction session, focusing on the topic: “Tamuse (Gurung Women) Skills on Sheep Wool and Their Significance in Tamu Traditions.”

The session featured a compelling presentation by Anita Gurung, a prominent Indigenous activist, journalist, researcher, and leading voice among Indigenous women. Gurung highlighted the traditional wool-making practices of Gurung women—tracing the journey from sheep rearing to thread preparation and the crafting of final woolen products. She further emphasized the deep economic, cultural, and traditional significance of these practices within the Tamu (Gurung) community.



Gurung also expressed concern over the rapid decline of this heritage skill, citing globalization and climate change as key factors. The decreasing number of sheep, she noted, has directly impacted the production of traditional woolen items such as radi and pakhi, putting this valuable knowledge at risk of extinction.

The event drew participation from scholars, students, researchers, and activists from various Indigenous communities. Participants from the Limbu community voiced that wool weaving traditions are not unique to the Gurung people but are also a significant part of the Limbu heritage and other Indigenous cultures of Nepal.

Professor Dr. Krishna Bhattachan, FIWNA’s mentor and longtime advocate for Indigenous rights, offered his expert remarks. He encouraged further expansion of the research before publication and reminded participants of the crucial need to recognize, preserve, and promote Indigenous skills and rights.

The session was moderated by Indira Chongbang, President of FIWNA, who expressed heartfelt gratitude to the presenter and all attendees. She reiterated FIWNA’s commitment to raising awareness, preserving Indigenous knowledge systems, and promoting dialogue on pressing Indigenous issues through these ongoing virtual sessions.

The Strength of Taking It Easy


Taking things easy doesn't mean avoiding life's challenges—it means giving yourself the space to heal, reflect, and regain the hope and strength that sometimes get lost. It’s about reclaiming your confidence, rebuilding your inner resilience, and making conscious, determined steps forward. Taking it easy is not a sign of weakness. In fact, it's a powerful act of self-control—managing your own thoughts and emotions while creating a meaningful world within yourself. 



 There are times when we feel deeply hurt—shattered into pieces—when we are judged unfairly, blamed unjustly, or talked about behind our backs. As human beings, we naturally long for appreciation, love, and understanding, especially from those closest to us—our families, friends, and communities we walk through life with. We often assume that people will recognize our efforts and acknowledge our feelings. Yet life has a way of confronting us with disappointments and emotional setbacks we never saw coming. I am someone who feels deeply. 

I have kind of  thoughts, emotions, and an empathetic nature. Arguments—especially with family or close friends—drain me. I don’t find joy in proving others wrong or trying to appear superior. When conflicts arise, I choose calm. I choose silence. I walk away—not because I am weak, but because peace matters more than pride. Still, like anyone else, I’ve had moments of feeling broken. 

When people disrespect me, dismiss my worth, or betray my trust, it hurts. We all hope that the respect and loyalty we give will be returned. When that doesn’t happen, it shakes us. But through one such painful experience, I discovered something powerful: myself. I realized I didn’t have to internalize others’ judgments. I could take it easy—not as an escape, but as a strategy for resilience. 

Today, I feel like a bird soaring freely in the sky, guided by my own wings. I’ve learned to dream again with strength, and my thoughts have become more independent and grounded. I no longer let disrespect or misjudgment dictate my emotions. I don’t depend on others to define my happiness. I’ve come to understand that my worth is self-made—rooted in my values, integrity, and the courage to keep moving forward. I no longer care what others say behind my back or how they choose to judge me. I care about how I rise, how I respond, and how I continue to create goodness in my own way. I am the author of my own story, the builder of my own destiny, and the source of my own strength. Taking it easy hasn’t made me passive—it has made me powerful.
