I never thought I would one day express myself this way. Honestly, sharing my feelings publicly would be the last thing on earth I would do, let alone expose myself completely and invite strangers into my soul. There is a voice in my head—quiet yet persistent—that keeps nudging me in this direction, like a beacon shedding light on a mysterious journey of self-discovery and transformation.

If you cross this path, maybe we have something in common. Perhaps the same voice that keeps whispering and longing to be heard. If that’s the case, you should sit with it, think about it, and let it sink in. Let your deepest truth guide your path and unfold the secret of life.

Everyone thinks I don’t like people. But it’s not true. I just don’t like being around the wrong people. And who does?

Being in the crowd is where I want to be the least. Not because I hate them, but because I don’t generate energy from it. And sometimes I’m starving myself and don’t even realize it.

My inner world is my realm, where the comfort of solitude soothes my soul and floods me with enjoyment. It’s a fortress where I can retreat and process the beauty of life. It’s a place where I let reflection consume me so that I can revitalize.

But wanna hear a paradox?

Sometimes you have to compromise your comfort zone for greater reasons. Imagine your worst nightmare is to be more present and speak out. But if that can inspire and help other lives improve their well-being—and more importantly, allow you to live a fulfilled life—would that be a tough pill to swallow?

Why should I compromise

Feeling incomplete is like living with confusion. A piece of you is missing somewhere. You are searching for your whole life, knowing your days on earth are limited. And death is a clock ticking over your head. When that one day comes, we are laying on bed, waiting for the journey into the unknown, and wondering if we have lived our life to the fullest.

Call it whatever you want to, your mission, your purpose or your truth. It won’t let you live a day peacefully until you answer the call—it will keep knocking, louder each time.

Another day on earth is another day you will feel it gnawing at you—like a silent grief. It creeps in even during the good moments—at dinner with family, in moments of stillness—and whispers: Have you really lived today? Have you moved even one step closer to your purpose?

So now, you can probably guess why I created this space. Even though putting myself out there—even digitally—feels vulnerable, I know this is what I need to do. I want to help, to inspire, to make someone feel a little more alive. I don’t have a psychology degree—at least, not yet. So if you’re looking for professional advice or therapy, I’m not the one.

But if you’re seeking meaning, if you’re tired of the constant grind of careers, deadlines, bills, and surface-level living, and you long for something deeper—you might find something here.

There is nothing more powerful that words. A quote can shake you awake. A book can become your bible. A stranger can light up your darkest day. Every encounter is an energy exchange. You don’t meet people by accident; you’re drawn to each other by resonance. I’m not here to teach. I’m here to hold space. And if you’re meant to be here, welcome.

That’s how The Lone Path was born. It doesn’t mean walking alone. It’s a space for those who feel torn between two worlds—material and spiritual—but can’t quite explain it, not even to the people they love.

For those who don’t feel the same, that’s ok too. It is interesting to look at life from another lens. Or you can use this to connect to your spiritual self for recharge and come back to reality for daily challenge. Because like I said, there are more to life than just your deadline, KPI, incomes, and career.

Believe it or not, the universe still evolve everyday without your daily meeting, electric bills, corporate or colleagues. While I don’t deny the importance of daily responsibilities, I want to point out that it is important to take care of your spiritual life too. If you cannot see, it does not mean it does not exist.

While I acknowledge the weight of daily responsibilities, I also believe it’s equally vital to nourish your spiritual self. Just because you can’t see something, doesn’t mean it isn’t real.

I became more aware of this unseen part of myself just before my 37th birthday. According to Rudolf Steiner, the mystic and philosopher, our lives move in 7-year cycles—each with its own lessons and transformations. If we live to 70, that’s ten cycles.

Right now, I’m in the sixth—often known as the crisis and awakening phase. It’s a time of reckoning, of deep questioning. And if we move through these cycles with courage, honesty, and integrity, life rewards us with wisdom and clarity.

Of course, this awakening didn’t happen overnight. It wasn’t like I just woke up one morning enlightened. It was a slow accumulation of moments, realizations, inner battles and emotional waves.

My subconscious had been nudging me for a while. My inner child—wounded and long silenced—began to rise, bringing unresolved patterns to the surface, especially in my closest relationships.

Suddenly, things made sense. Or at least, they started to.

I decided to speak out my experience. Not to teach but rather to share and inspire. That’s my deepest truth, to become a bridge and translate the invisible into something you cannot feel when living in a world of to-do-lists, bills, and social expectation.

Our inner world is as important as your outer world, because without it, you cannot create realities. And at the end of the day, nothing lights up an INFJ personality like changing someone else’s life for the better.
