How Veda Ditched the Drama

Veda was always the one who wore her heart on her sleeve..

Her husband, Arjun, was her shiny knight in shining armour, the Only Hero or so she thought, until it turned out his armour was made of lies, manipulation, and a touch of

 "let's_make_her_question_her_own reality by confusing her " 

MAGIC 🎉🎉

At first, Arjun was a perfect Man like, too perfect. He was the kind of guy who'd remember your favourite ice cream flavour and then buy you an entire truckload of it, just to make sure you'd never forget. The romance, the charm....it was like a Disney movie... except for the part where you realise the charming prince has been gaslighting you for years.

Veda, being the loving soul she was, never questioned the little things...like, why her opinions were always "overreacting" or why every argument ended with her apologising for "being too emotional." But after the fiftieth time Arjun told her she was "tooooooo sensitive" for feeling hurt, she realised something.

"Wait a minute," Veda thought, "Maybe he's the one with the problem, not me."

One day, after another heated " you are really crazy?" moment, Veda had an epiphany. Not the kind that hits you like a spiritual awakening, but more like the realisation that she was done with this nonsense. So, she did something shocking. 

She didn’t scream, cry, or throw his clothes out the window (which, honestly, would’ve been a good twist). No, Veda simply ........WALKED AWAY

No, there was no toooo dramatic exit scenes like in movies......No fights....No Tragic Music swelling in the background. It was more like she stood up, turned off the microwave, and calmly walked out of the kitchen. The room stayed perfectly quiet.

Veda’s walk was not one of anger, but of profound peace. 

She didn’t need Arjun’s validation anymore. 

No more pleading, no more desperate "Why can't you see me?" 

She had rediscovered her own voice, and it wasn’t screaming or shouting. It was like a soft whisper: "I’m enough. I’m more than enough."

Over the next few months, she rediscovered 

💓 old hobbies, 

💓 took up journaling, and had 

💓 random dance parties in her living room. (She was a terrible dancer, but who cared? It was her party!) 

💓 She started making decisions that were right for her, not for Arjun. And slowly, she felt stronger. It wasn’t flashy or loud; it was a quiet, consistent power that came from within.

Arjun, ever the sweetest smooth talker, tried to woo her back with sweet words and empty promises, but Veda wasn’t buying it. 

She’d already learned the hardest, most powerful lesson of all: 

You don’t need to fight manipulation with more manipulation. 

Just stop playing the game ( unlike Yudhishthira, the eldest of the Pandava brothers in Mahabharata who did NOT QUIT the Shakuni's game of dice )

Just stop & QUIT the game! Nothing to prove....

And so, Veda stood firm. Her journey to peace wasn't a fairytale, but it was her story and it had a twist of humour, because let's face it, who wouldn’t want to be the heroine who walked away from the world's longest emotional rollercoaster?

Moral of the Story:

You don’t need a grand speech or dramatic exit. Sometimes, the most powerful move is to simply stop playing the game. Stand in your truth. You are enough, no validation required.

And hey, if you feel like dancing around in your living room while you're at it, more power to you! 💃
