Ruhani

"What doesn't kills you,
Makes you stronger".

I'm Ruhani, a 26-year-old independent woman. I currently work as an editorial cartoonist and occasionally write newspaper articles. I chose this line of work since it interests me and because I'm an introvert and don't enjoy interacting with a lot of people. 

My mother and I make up the small family that consists of only the two of us here in Bangalore. Anuradha Kashyap is her name.

My mother, who is not my biological mother but means more to me than that, gave me the identity Ruhani since I don't have a surname or, to put it another way, I don't know what mine is. And she addresses me as Rooh.

I was treated so cruelly by life. I can't seem to get rid of some painful memories and wounds from my past, but I'm slowly learning to accept them because there are some things in life we can't alter. However, I believe that everyone has some sort of issue, no matter how minor, because life is not always easy; everyone has both happy and bad moments. I can't escape the past, but I can go on, take stock of my current situation, and improve my future instead of dwelling on what went wrong in the past.

I'm not a very social person; all I do is concentrate on my work since I have nothing else to do. I don't have many friends, let alone any close ones. In fact, I'd rather not make any new friends because it hurts when they leave.

My hobby is, playing; I'm a basketball player. Even though I'm not very good at it, I still like to play football occasionally.

Let's go on to the subject of my greatest love, music, which is something that never fails to cheer me up or make me feel alone in any circumstance. When there's confusion in my head, it helps me unwind. I can also play the guitar, which I picked up in college.

I enjoy painting because it allows me to express myself and articulate things that words cannot. I enjoy painting my ideas on canvas that nobody else sees.

My favorite thing on earth is nature. I adore the peaceful sense of being in nature when I'm by myself. I wish I could travel the world and take in all of its beauty.

Since I'm an introvert, I don't do well in large crowds or with lots of people around. I prefer to be by myself, but sometimes that's not so great either because it can be difficult to spend time by yourself and deal with all the terrifying thoughts that remind you of things you'd rather forget. However, I attempt to conquer them as I grow accustomed to them.

I sincerely hope you find me attractive, but if not, that's okay too—we weren't created to win over everyone.
