What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
Honestly, I don’t romanticise the idea of living a very long life just for the sake of it. Length doesn’t impress me—depth does. I care more about how alive I feel in my years than how many of them I collect.
A long life with constant stress, emotional baggage, or pretending to be someone I’m not sounds exhausting. But a life where I’m growing, unlearning, feeling peaceful, connected, and free in my own mind? That’s worth stretching.
I’d rather live a life where I’m present, evolving, and honest with myself—even if it’s not endless—than live forever on autopilot. For me, a good life isn’t about surviving longer; it’s about living consciously, at my own pace, on my own terms.
Hi, I’m Deepika — a writer, thinker, and believer in the power of healing and self-discovery. This blog, Talk with Me — Empowering Together, is my space to share honest thoughts about life’s ups and downs, emotional struggles, beautiful moments of growth, and the strength it takes to rise again. I write from personal experience — from the battles that once broke me, to the small wins that reminded me this too shall pass.  Here, you’ll find heartfelt stories, reflections on mental and emotional resilience, and insights I’ve learned along the way. My goal is simple: to empower you to embrace life more fully, find your voice, and keep moving forward with courage, no matter what you are facing.  When I’m not writing, I enjoy finding inspiration in everyday moments — a quiet afternoon walk in the park, sunshine on my face, meaningful conversations with people I love, and learning from life’s smallest yet deepest lessons.  Let’s journey together: I hope these words resonate with you, encourage you, and remind you that you are not alone. Feel free to explore, comment, and connect — I’d love to hear your story too! If you have any stories to tell, you are more than welcome to send it through via email on deepikapaulofficial@gmail.com It could either be published under your name or as an anonymous. This isn’t just my story—it might be a piece of yours too. ♥️♥️
