When everything feels overwhelming, and I do not know what to do or who to turn to, I start a blog. Writing has become my way of letting it out, even if I am not saying it out loud in person. I was not born to keep my stories to myself. Of course, you will not find me openly complaining—that is not my style. But between the lines, you will catch glimpses of my emotions among those I choose to share.

Internet, from a very young age, became my quiet way of connecting, of reminding myself that I am not alone in feeling this way, and maybe (even though I do not want to be the one making you go through this) you will realize you are not alone either.
