Kiran's memoir, Sorry and Thank You, My Dear Inner Child, is more than just a memoir; it's
a reflection for all of us who have ever felt unseen, unheard, or unloved. In this moving memoir, he gives us the key to his own childhood, in which undiagnosed dyslexia, colorism, and emotional neglect conditioned his secret struggles. But behind this suffering was a determination that never faltered: to provide for his mother and create a better life.
From the narrow streets of an Indian backwater town to the corporate offices of Europe, Kiran's journey appears a tale of success. He becomes a software engineer, settles in the Netherlands, and creates the life people fantasize about. But beneath the shine of success, the hurt of invisibility never really faded. This book conveys that tension, the polished surface of success, and the silent pain beneath.
In contrast to typical quick-fix self-help books, this one asks readers to take their time and listen. It encourages us to remember healing is not about "fixing" but rather about recalling who we were before the world instructed us to shrink. With compassion and authenticity, Kiran's words walk us back to the child within, the part of us still wanting to be accepted and loved.
Through raw narrative and gentle reflections, Sorry and Thank You, My Dear Inner Child addresses any who has ever borne the burden of silence. It is at once a personal and private story and a global call to self-compassion.
For all who have pursued success but felt incomplete, Kiran's book is a reminder that wholeness lies not in fleeing pain but in embracing it with compassion.
