My mother, a strong and wise woman, always taught us that true happiness doesn&#8217;t come from material things or external circumstances. She often reminded us that happiness isn&#8217;t something you win but something you create within yourself. I remember one day in particular when, even though we didn&#8217;t have much, she organized a small dinner for us, turning a simple evening into a real celebration. We laughed, sang, and shared stories. She had this unique way of making ordinary moments extraordinary, showing us that the joy and love we share are more valuable than anything we could own. It&#8217;s moments like these that taught me happiness is a decision, a choice to live each moment fully with gratitude, no matter the challenges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-73085 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Tarini Akshaya\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-73100\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-73100'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Tarini Akshaya\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya05.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Tarini Akshaya\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya05.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-73098\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-73098'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Tarini Akshaya\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya04.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Tarini Akshaya\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/10\/mdcselects_tariniakshaya04.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-73099\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-73099'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Tarini Akshaya\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"name-title\">Tarini<\/div>\n<div class=\"writeup\">\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nTarini Akshaya \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/rinidoesstuff\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@rinidoesstuff<\/a> \u2014 Indian from Chennai, India \u2014 born August 2nd \u2014 175 cm \/ 5&#8217;9&#8243; \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\nParaScoutt Model Management (mother agency)<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are 3 interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\n1.
