This blog is a heartfelt 4th of July reflection by Parita Sharma on the true meaning of freedom - not just as a political right, but as a mental and emotional choice. Inspired by Viktor Frankl’s quote, it explores how true freedom lies in choosing your response, especially during adversity, and connects this idea with mental health, healing, and inner strength.

"Giving is beautiful, but not when it empties you. Many stay in one-sided relationships because giving feels like purpose. But when love isn’t returned, it leads to silent burnout. If you feel unseen, unheard, or doubting yourself—pause. This isn’t balance; it’s self-abandonment. You deserve reciprocity. You deserve peace. SEVEE is here when you're ready to choose yourself."
