Anya's Journey to Inner Peace

The clouds part and the once-upon-a-path appears and there is a certain young woman named Anya. Life had thrown stones and rocks at her, some tiny stones that stung and some big ones that devastated.

The two left their mark, each grudge remaining to whisper to her. Instead, Anya longed for freedom for her people and an end to the violence that had become all too commonplace.

One day on her way, she encountered a woman of her age but her face looked like the whole world was on her shoulders. The woman was sharing her past, which is better to leave behind than to be dragged along; the better it is to let go of.

A spirit, so beautiful, and without the burden of rage, that was what Anya found herself enthralled with the whole concept of.

Inspired, Anya sought serenity. She longed for a visage as austere as her inner self, a soul as smooth as that of a water surface, and lips that curved naturally into a grin of happiness.

The road wasn't smooth. Harsh encounters kept growing, and each little pain doled out left Anya heartbroken. Still, she is determined now, so the anger shifted aside. These hurts she viewed not as inflictions, but as landmarks carving into the very spirit of her heart.

Sexuality was the absent paradigm, interactions turned into games, an elaborate game of charades. They were important to Anya yet she could not obsess over them. Faults were always bound to happen, and instead of holding on to them it only served to hinder her own progress.

The picture of forgiveness being used as a weapon was novel; this weapon was not wielded as a tool of defeat but of emancipation. She stopped holding grudges over things that others had said or done, appreciating that strength resides in letting go of things.

The wise saying that she uttered in the film implies that “letting go also means, frees your own heart.”

Ever since the day Anya decided to follow her instincts and take a different path, she has been seeing the world with different eyes. Accompanying each dawning day, she washed the dirt of the previous night and it left the soul anew as if washed by the early morning showers.

She pressed on, of course, there were struggles along the way but definitely, at this stage of her life she embraced them with an abundance of peace in her bosom and a soul liberated.
