Silentbattles Stories

Every day, people travel in Mumbai's local trains carrying dreams, exhaustion, hope, and silent pain. This is not a story I learned. This is a story I witnessed- through faces, silence, and moments that pass between stations. I don't know their names. I don't know their stories completely. But I've seen enough to believe that every face carries a battle. This is what I saw- every day- inside a train that never stops.

Sa dami ng nangyayari sa buhay-trabaho, pamilya, pangarap, heartbreak, healing-minsan nakakalimutan natin ang mga simpleng paalala na dapat laging nasa puso. "Dear Life: Mga Paalala na Dapat Hindi Kalimutan" is a gentle reminder to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters. This book is filled with short reflections, real-life wisdom, and faith-based encouragement para sa mga araw na parang ang bigat-bigat. Nandito ang mga paalala na minsan hindi natin napapansin: - Maging mabait kahit walang kapalit - Magpahinga, hindi ka robot - Magpasalamat sa maliliit na biyaya - Alagaan ang sarili, hindi selfish 'yon - At higit sa lahat, huwag kalimutang mahal ka ng Diyos Para ito sa mga taong pagod na, nalilito, o simpleng naghahanap ng sagot sa tanong na: "Ano nga ba ang mahalaga sa buhay?" Isang paalala: hindi ka nag-iisa.

This is a heartfelt reflection of someone who feels unseen at home, unnoticed in school, and torn between weakness and faith. It tells the story of hiding behind ministry while silently battling doubt and low confidence. Yet, in the middle of pain, the essay holds on to hope-that even if the world makes us feel like nobodies, we are always somebodies in the eyes of God.

--- 📘 Her Struggles Chapter 1: I'm 18... and Already Tired --- I turned 18 last month. There were no fireworks. No cake. No "welcome to adulthood" speech. Just me, my mother yelling in the background, a half-cooked bowl of indomie, and a voice in my head whispering, > "This is your life now." I used to think 18 would feel different. Maybe I'd wake up feeling powerful, like I finally had control. Instead, I feel... tired. And it's only just beginning. --- College is choking me. Assignments piling. Lecturers who don't even know my name. My part-time job at the local café keeps me on my feet for hours, fake smiling at customers who don't even look at me twice. Then I come home and still get asked, > "What have you even done today, Priya?" As if existing isn't already a full-time job. --- But then there's Raph. I met him two weeks ago. He's... different. Soft-spoken. Gentle. And the way he says my name? It makes me feel seen. And I hate that. Because I promised myself not to fall for anyone while my own world is falling apart. He always finds me after class. Says something stupid to make me laugh. Walks me to the bus stop like it's a duty. > "You're strong, Priya," he told me once. "But even strong people need somewhere to rest." And for a second... I almost let myself believe I could rest in him. --- But tonight, I cried in the bathroom. Again. Silent tears. The kind you cry when you know no one will come check on you anyway. I wrote a poem in my head: > I'm 18 With war in my heart And roses in my smile They don't know I'm breaking But I do it with style. --- Tomorrow, I'll wake up and do it all again. College. Work. Pretending. Smiling. Surviving. Because I'm Priya. And apparently, being 18 means learning how to carry the world - before you even know how to carry yourself. --- To be continued...

This is an open letter for my generation. Have you ever felt like you are not good enough? Have you reached the point of questioning yourself and hating yourself for being you?

This is a journey of resilience, pain, and self-discovery. Forged in the Dark tells the story of a soul molded not by comfort, but by struggle. Carved by nights unseen, shaped by the moments no one witnessed, and forged by the pain no one cared about, it is the testament of someone who built themselves in the shadows, learning to rise and find the light. Each chapter explores the battles fought in silence, the scars that remain, and the strength that emerges from surviving the unbearable. It's a story for anyone who has ever felt broken, lost, or invisible-a reminder that even from nothing, one can stand strong.

A compilation of prose and poetries.

Elara Maris Alcantara has spent years proving her worth in a world that never seems to notice her. She works harder, stays quieter, and endures more than most-because survival isn't about being exceptional, it's about persistence. But when a mistake is made while she's on leave, her name becomes the easiest one to blame. The people she thought were colleagues-her team lead, her supervisor, even her own teammate-conspired to erase their own failures, weaving a lie that threatens everything Elara has worked for. She has always swallowed injustices, burying them beneath silent endurance. But this time, silence won't protect her. For the first time, Elara must decide whether to fight for her truth or let herself become just another forgotten casualty in the corporate machine. Because if she lets this go-who will she become?

Elias Mercer had everything-fame, fortune, and millions of adoring fans. His music resonated with the world, yet no one truly knew him. Beneath the flashing lights and sold-out arenas, he was drowning in loneliness, lost in the industry that once gave him purpose. One night, he walks away from it all. Disappearing to a quiet coastal town, Elias trades the roar of the crowd for the soothing crash of the waves. There, he meets Lillian-a painter with a soul as deep as the ocean. She sees beyond his fame, beyond the songs, to the man behind the music. As Elias rediscovers himself, the world comes knocking again. Will he return to the life he once knew, or choose a path where his heart, not the industry, guides his music? A story of fame, solitude, love, and the search for something real. ✨ Read "Echoes of Solitude" now! ✨

Some wounds are invisible, some battles are fought in silence, and some scars are carried alone. People say, "You handled it so well," but the truth? I didn't handle it. I went insane. I lost my spark. I bled in silence. I shattered alone. I wore a smile that lied better than any mask could. I survived it-not because I was strong, but because I had no other choice. Every sleepless night, every tear I swallowed, every weight I carried on my shoulders-it all built me. This is raw. This is unfiltered. This is what surviving feels like when the world expects you to crumble. This story, this poem, this journey-it's for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or forgotten. To those who are drowning in the noise of the world, feeling the weight of pain no one else acknowledges, know this: you are not alone. Your survival is your power. Your voice matters. Your story matters. And even in the darkest hours, even when you feel broken beyond repair, you are becoming more than your pain. You are becoming unstoppable. Read, feel, breathe, and remember: it's okay not to be okay. It's okay to struggle. It's okay to break-but it's also okay to rise, again and again.
