Kanika's Post

I never thought I would come back here… Three years ago, life changed in a way I still don’t have words for. I lost my mum and my sister—my biggest cheerleaders, my home. And somewhere in that loss… I lost this part of me too. The girl who loved capturing sunsets, roads, and little moments. The girl who found joy in sharing the world. But standing here, in the quiet beauty of New Zealand’s South Island… something shifted…….. Nature didn’t rush me. It didn’t ask me to be okay. It just held me… gently. And for the first time in a long time, I felt something close to peace. Maybe healing doesn’t happen all at once. Maybe it begins like this— with a view, a breath, a moment… and the courage to start again. 🤍 This is my first reel after 3 years. And maybe… my way back. Love you Mumma& Manika forever! @neela.matta @mykitchendates ❤️💕❤️ #healingjourney #southislandnz #newzealand #natureheals #griefjourney
