My Karma, My Power

I grew up hearing one simple line again and again: “Karma kabhi jhooth nahi bolta.” At that time, I did not fully understand its meaning. Life was busy, emotions were heavy, and expectations came from every direction. But as I grew older, that line slowly became my strength. Today, I truly believe that my karma is my power.

As a woman, life teaches you many lessons early. You are expected to adjust, to stay quiet at times, and to keep moving even when your heart feels tired. People talk, judge, and form opinions without knowing your full story. In such moments, I remind myself of one thing—log kya kahenge is temporary, but my actions will stay with me forever. I may not control what others say, but I can always control what I do.

I do not believe in hurting back when I am hurt. It is not because I am weak, but because I choose peace over chaos. When someone misunderstands me or speaks behind my back, I stay silent and let my work speak. Silence, when filled with honesty, is not helplessness. It is dignity. I have learned that reacting quickly may give relief for a moment, but doing the right thing gives peace for a lifetime.

There were days when I felt alone, when my efforts were unnoticed and my intentions were questioned. I asked myself, “Why should I keep being good when the world is not?” The answer always came from within—because being good keeps my soul light. My karma is not for applause. It is for my own conscience. I want to sleep peacefully at night knowing I did not become bitter just because life was unfair.

I believe that karma is not about immediate results. It is about trust. Trust that what you give to the world—kindness, honesty, hard work—will return in some form, at the right time. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but surely when you need it the most. This belief gives me courage to keep walking on my path, even when it feels lonely.

As a woman, my strength is often tested. I balance emotions and responsibilities, dreams and duties. Sometimes I fail, sometimes I fall, but I never stop trying. My karma is seen in my effort, not in perfection. Even when I make mistakes, I choose to learn instead of blaming others. Growth begins the day we take responsibility for our actions.

I have realized that true power does not come from control over others. It comes from control over oneself. When I choose patience over anger, honesty over shortcuts, and kindness over ego, I feel powerful. This power is quiet, but it is deep. No one can take it away from me because it is built by my own choices.

People may never know how much I struggled, how many tears I wiped away silently. And that is okay. I do not need validation from the world. My journey is between me, my efforts, and the universe. I trust that the universe keeps account of every sincere action, every pure intention.

Today, I stand with confidence—not because I have everything, but because I have faith. Faith in my karma, faith in my values, and faith in myself. I will continue to do good work, speak the truth, and walk with grace. Let people say what they want. My actions will always speak louder.

This is my belief, my strength, my identity.

My karma is my power—and that power is enough.
