Prisha Khimavat

For the four years or so, this has been my little space on the internet, and in that time, this blog has always reflected who I am, and the things that I’m focusing on in my life at that particular time.

When I first started this blog in 2017, it was called The Roses in the Ashes. That version of this space focused on finding the positives in a stressful time. As a 16-year-old junior in high school, my main priority was trying to figure out who I was and what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. So I decided to start a blog where I could focus on the positives and at least a couple of times a month get away from all the confusion I was feeling.

Then, in 2018, once I had already made some decisions about college, and was moving away from home for the first time,  I wanted a place where I could process my feelings about change, and share my thoughts and stories about all sorts of things. So, I changed my domain name and renamed this space to Prisha Khimavat.  For the past two years, I wrote in a poetic style about abstract concepts, childhood memories, or even streams of consciousness. During that time, this had been my state of mind, and my blog reflected that.

Now, though I still need a place where I can share my experiences through poetry and stories, my areas of interest have grown. There are more topics I want to write about and styles of writing I want to explore, and it’s time for this space to reflect that. I’m currently exploring self-care, mental health, productivity, and personal growth in my own life,  so those are some topics I want to and will be writing about on here. I also really enjoy beauty/fashion and entertainment, so I might be writing a bit about that as well. I’m sure as I continue blogging some of these interests will narrow down, but as of now, my intention is to write more lifestyle and self-care related content. I have been wanting to make this change for a few months now, I’m beyond excited for this time of change and growth on this page.

I recognize that as a young woman entering her early twenties, writing about her interests, not everything may be relevant to everyone anymore. However, I will still be writing some of the poetry based content that I always have. So, I hope that as I’m exploring my interests, you’re able to find something here for yourself too.

All that being said, I’m sure this blog will evolve again within a few years as I evolve, but until then, I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

Living life, one word at a time.
