I've just booked for myself a fancy vacation, the first since my existence on this planet. But the lil voice in my head is telling me that I will end up canceling the closer I get towards the departure date.

@Solelytuned This is a common guilt among us (Indians)

Whenever we try to do something nice for ourselves, we feel this way.

@shibaprasad yeah i realised that and i am genuinely trying since a couple of months to take care of my happiness. It's tough thanks to the brown daughter trauma that is so deep rooted but will get there eventually.
