Lucky are those, who have the courage and power to be with someone battling anxiety and trauma. Blessed are those, for they have their back and their love in one. 

No! You are not my punching bag, I am not saying it aloud but I need help and patience, only from YOU!

We do not need expensive gifts, we just need your undivided attention, love, and a bit more patient hearing, We need you, the whole of you. 

Yes, it is tough for the one on the receiving end, Yes, it will suck the patience out of you, and yes, it’s true, leaving is easier THAN STAYING!

The cherished echoes, those happy moments linger along, how did everything change so much? Hang on to those memories and love, things go bad but with love and lots of patience, you can save it too. Can you? Can we?

Love and patience serve as lifelines for persons dealing with trauma. In times of despair, they provide solace and strength, guiding the wounded to recovery. With each compassionate gesture and enduring presence, love shines as a sign of hope, illuminating the soul’s darkest places. Patience, a gentle hug, nourishes unseen scars and allows the scars to dissolve with time. They work together to create a haven where grief can be healed and shattered fragments of the heart are lovingly rebuilt, and sewed together with threads of undying affection.

“ I wasn’t like this, I promise, I had no control then and I have no control now. This is not intentional and even I am as helpless as you are. We keep passing the baton, evolving each day, NO, it’s not an upward curve. Lows will come, horribly low phases but if we keep going and stay strong- We will see the brighter side, ONLY IF WE SAIL THROUGH TOGETHER”-RVA

Promises are meant to be broken or kept? I will live with you forever or I will never leave your side…. As good as this feels sometimes these lines break us, take the life out of us, every day, every single minute. No, this is not a heartbreak story or a betrayal one, sometimes life takes its due course and we part from our loved one, leaving us helpless and beyond our control. 

I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT YOU- Not everything is a lie, the journey might be uncertain and that’s why it is very important to cherish each day, every single moment and build a life full of memories and love. Yes, I am breathing and waking up every single day, without you but I never mentioned living without you. I am breathing well, I promise, I just can’t say the same thing for a living. 

We meet so many people, and have so many experiences with some new and some old connections, with some we lose touch with, and sometimes life plays the ugly character of making us part ways not just in reality but sometimes through souls. Hence, One must live a life full of gratitude, love, and harmony as we don’t know how long this journey will last or how long we will.

Our life is held together by love and relationships, which create a web of treasured memories that echo Long after physical possessions leave.  The connections we make through love give our journey a purpose and paint our lives with colors. These connections nurture our spirits through life’s setbacks and victories, adding coziness, happiness, and a deep sense of belonging to our experiences.

As we navigate through the complicated dance of existence, the embrace of love and the richness of connections keep us going through each twist and turn. They give our days meaning and make even the simplest moments profoundly significant. In the end, when everything else fades away, the love we’ve shared and the connections we have formed will live on as our most valuable legacy, forever illuminating the path for those who come after us.

“ Everyone says that you are physically not here anymore and that I should TRY to MOVE ON. Well, they are right, but even I am Yours, which cannot be changed till eternity. The body departs but the soul stays and SOULMATES are ties that are not restricted by life and beyond; it is a connection that crosses the greatest barriers and meets at the horizon. Everyone says that you are physically not here, well I meet you every day and hug you tight, just like always”.- RVA.

In the era of being emotionally strong, I have a confession to make! I am guilty of being emotional and always looking for emotional connection and love before anything else. Indeed, it comes with our share of betrayals, heartbreaks, and tears but a lot of us till now need that emotional love to even connect at a deeper level let alone a physical level.

In a world that’s all about quick fixes and instant everything, our generation seems to be racing towards a future of speed and simplicity. But let’s take a moment to reflect on what truly keeps us happy and in love – the emotional relationships that make life meaningful.

Amid our fast-paced lives, it’s easy to forget the joy that comes from deep connections. We are often tempted by the allure of quick solutions, but true, lasting happiness isn’t found in shortcuts. It’s found in the strength of our emotional ties.

While the world urges us to take the easy way out, we must not underestimate the power of empathy, compassion, and shared feelings. The moments of vulnerability, the fun we share, and the comfort of someone who truly understands us are what count most.

In a society preoccupied with speed, let us remember the value of taking the time to make meaningful connections. Emotional attachments are the lifeblood of long-term relationships. They provide comfort during difficult times and inspire joy on happy occasions.

So, in this fast-paced world, let’s embrace the idea that being strong and independent doesn’t mean ignoring the depth of our emotional connections. Let’s cherish the richness of our relationships, knowing that these bonds make life extraordinary. Because in the end, it’s the magic of genuine connections that turns a good life into a great one.

“Yes, I am an emotional person, but that doesn’t make me an emotional fool. It makes me strong because I am capable of feeling deeply be it a heartbreak or the essence of love. Yes, I am an emotional person and there’s no greater feeling than being emotionally invested yet aware”-RVA

Herein, what we fail to acknowledge and realize is, that the person who is called high maintenance or soft is the one who has been functioning on such high radar to emotions of own self and of everyone around them. They can sense a change in tone, a change in aura, or even the slightest change in routine behavior. Their emotional recognition patterns are heightened, more like a superpower. How would you feel if you could hear sensitive sonic booms and bear the pain of it every time it occur? You may bleed or even lose your hearing capacity. It is only when we draw tangible parallels that we realize that the events that change or alter our lives are the sonic booms to our emotional sensitivity. It numbs our tongues so that we can’t breathe and bleeds the tears from our eyes. 

Processing these emotions, happy or sad, will appear differently to different people. The only thing we can do is not shame ourselves for having heightened sensitivities to emotions. It allows us to feel, help, and share the happiest of highs and endure the lowest of lows. Embrace the superpower of sensitivity.

Indeed, it is an Impactful statement which might be 80% true but there’s a flip side also, the 20% flip side. Humans can only try and hope because we all know that not everything is in our control. We hustle and take plunges for our betterment but destiny is unknown and can be full of surprises or shocks.

Life is a journey filled with unpredictable twists and turns. Life, after all, is a delicate balance of control and unpredictability. It’s in this conflict between our hearts and minds that we truly discover the essence of our existence.

The truth is that life is a rollercoaster of experiences –Ups and downs are part and parcel of life, the good and the bad, the joy and the grief. Many a time our Mind knows and accepts it all but our HEART?? The innocent soul of ours refuses to accept reality and thus starts the conflict between our hearts and minds.

This internal fight is a universal experience for the majority of us. We struggle with situations beyond our control, doubting the justice of life’s ups and downs. We are baffled as to why the heart refuses to accept the mind’s rational reasoning. It’s as if our hearts are wired to long for an ideal world free of hardships.

The challenges we face, the failures we encounter, and the adversities we endure serve as catalysts for our personal growth. Each setback is an opportunity to rise stronger and wiser.

Ultimately, the 20% flip side serves as a reminder that life is unpredictable, and we cannot control every outcome. However, it’s essential to understand that it’s in these moments of unpredictability that our true character is tested. It’s in these very moments that we can emerge as resilient and empowered individuals.

So, while life’s surprises and shocks might rock us to our core, they also provide us with an opportunity to rebuild and rejuvenate ourselves. Embrace your internal battles since they are the incubators in which your strength and character are formed. Both the 80% truth and the 20% uncertainty weave a story that is uniquely yours in the grand fabric of life. It’s not just about what breaks you; it’s also about what makes you unbreakable.

“My mind is tired and wants to sleep, but whenever I decide to retire to bed and get some rest my heart takes me back to the days which keep me awake. Once a reality has become a dream now and my present has become the past now”-RVA.

In this Q&A, we explore through Petrons’ and its founder, Akash’s, journey to understand their mission, hardships, and genuine love for pets.

1. What inspired you to start Petrons, and how has it evolved over the years?

 Petrons was founded in 2017 as a meme page. However, the huge response from pet owners led us to turn it into a media company focused on pet parenting, awareness, and community building.

2. What was the initial challenge Petrons faced?

The transition from a meme page to a business was really difficult. A transition from casual to professional was essential to monetize content and secure the first round of investment. With each passing day, it got better. The initial struggle was getting the visibility and attention of the right target audience which Petrons got through visibility by covering major events across the city. Also, there was no team to fall back on.

3. Can you share a pivotal moment in Petrons’ journey?

   In late 2018, Petrons became the official partner for its first pet event. This marked a turning point, providing visibility and opportunities to cover major pet events across the country.

4. What sets Petrons apart from other pet-related platforms?

Petrons’ unique selling point lies in its storytelling approach. It connects with the masses by placing pets and their stories at the forefront.

5. Could you tell us about a low point in Petrons’ history?

  In 2018, Petrons faced a brief setback when its page was deactivated, and securing a major funding source was disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we bounced back and eventually launched our website. We went ahead and started partnering with top pet events across the country, which led to more website traffic increase in readership.

6. What are Petrons’ current focus and future plans?

  Petrons continues to share relevant stories weekly and aims to create an inclusive environment for pet owners. We are also actively seeking investors for their next phase of growth. We want to cover the ethos of being a pet parent and create an all-inclusive pet-friendly environment

7. How has your personal relationship with your pet influenced Petrons?

My deep love for my pet, Scotch, has played a significant role in shaping Petrons. It has been a guiding force and a source of love for both my growth and the platform. I am his dad and my pet has a social media page where he keeps Inspiring other pets and the parents.

8. What message would you like to share with potential pet owners?

 We all need to emphasize the importance of responsible pet ownership. Pets are not toys, and getting one is a significant responsibility that should be carefully considered.

Petrons is a labor of love, a passion project, and a desire to build an empathic and accepting atmosphere for pet parents.

Truly, Akash Bhaskar’s path from a meme page to a pet community highlights the value of hard work and a strong bond with animals. Petrons is a brilliant example of the impact that one individual’s love for pets can have on a community of like-minded pet parents as they continue to grow and share heartfelt experiences.
