Journey of Finding Myself

Luka Chuppi plays in the background. I’m writing this journal here with Vishak. Maybe we love solitude or need concentration to write—whatever it is, it gives me comfort and makes me feel at home in an unknown place. I’ve always believed that people come and go; that’s life. But this camp makes me wonder: some people are like fireflies. They always appear in groups. I’m damn sure this friendship among these 20 people will remain constant.

Luka Chuppi continues to play… When I think back to my life before Saptha, I remember so many sleepless nights, anxiety, and overthinking. That’s how I was. I never took care of myself; it’s not about being selfish, it’s about time. My hectic schedule made me forget myself to an extent. Now here I am, making small changes like being stress-free. This has been a journey from no one to someone. I’ve found myself in this process—my weaknesses, my qualities, my nourishing points, and my depleting points. I’ve discovered more about myself.

More than that, I’ve found beautiful souls, including all the participants. The fireflies commence everywhere here. Thank you, God, for this wonderful opportunity. I’m grateful for Saptha and for being a part of the fireflies community.

Lots of love, Namana M
