The Unseen Page ~ What You Carried Without Knowing

We were taught to chase happiness not to recognize it. To find it in places, people, approval… but never in ourselves.

In this episode of The Silent Scribe – A Journey with Divya, I open a quiet page about misunderstood joy , the kind we carry not because it’s real, but because we were told we should. Through my original poem, I reflect on the soft ache that follows us when we measure happiness through comparison, expectation, or external signs.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever smiled for others, searched outside for what was quietly waiting inside, or questioned whether their happiness was truly their own.

Listen if you’ve ever whispered:

“Why do I feel empty when everything looks full?”
