A soul knows how to heal itself.Being an empath, I used to get deeply affected by the suffering of others. My introverted nature never allowed me to express my own pain. As a child, circumstances didn’t allow me to nurture the creative side of my personality. As a result, my pain had no outlet. This unexpressed pain created chaos within me—a constant restlessness, a deep anguish that never allowed me to experience peace.

My heart was in search of something very precious, but my attachment to family made it difficult to listen to my own needs. One emotional crisis after another kept me on my toes. Then one rainy day, I sat by the window with a heavy heart, questioning my very existence. That day, I decided I would no longer drag through life. I surrendered to my struggle and began the journey inward in search of that “something precious.”

My soul had been silently bleeding, yearning for healing for a very long time. The inner calling had become too strong to ignore. That’s how my inward journey began—as if my soul was determined to heal itself deeply. I left all comfort zones to fulfill the soul’s need. Along the way, I discovered something profound: I could heal others. Initially, it was my own soul’s need to heal pain by healing the pain of others.

Now, things have changed. I no longer heal because it is my need. I heal because I have become a channel. I am at peace within, and this mystical life continues to amaze me every single day.

We can witness similar stories around us—people whose suffering has transformed into purpose:

  1. During the tsunami in Chennai, a man lost his wife and daughter. Grief overwhelmed him, but that unbearable pain became a force that drove him to help others affected by floods and natural calamities. Through their suffering, he found a way to begin healing his own deep wounds. How long he continues to serve depends on the depth of that pain.

  2. A young woman lost her soldier husband in a terrorist attack, just a year into their marriage. Initially, she was engulfed in grief. But six months later, her soul was ready to begin the healing process. She decided to join the army, trained hard, and was selected as an officer. In serving the country, she feels closer to what her husband once felt. Despite knowing the cost, she’s chosen to heal through the very path that took him away.

  3. A young girl lost her lover. This pain transformed her completely. To channel her grief, she started a small-scale industry for underprivileged women. In helping them gain emotional and financial independence, she found purpose, and in that, healing.

  4. In Mumbai, a man began serving meals to underprivileged cancer patients and their families. Witnessing their suffering while supporting someone he knew deeply moved him. That day, he decided no one in need around him would go hungry. Today, 700 people are served meals through his efforts.

These stories remind us that when we channel our deep-rooted emotions—pain, anger, sorrow—we can create something meaningful and beautiful. These intense emotions are forms of energy. We can either be consumed by them or choose to transform them for a greater cause.

Healing begins when we accept our situation and calm our minds. Channel your emotions, serve a cause, and witness how healing flows through you.
