In the past few years, every time I ask someone how they are the answer is more often than not busy or tired. It is almost as if these words have become an expression of emotional wellbeing and not a temporary state of existence. The narrative shifted for a little while during the pandemic, but …
“This year I met the most broken version of me, but also the strongest.” – That’s why, I want to take the chance with the year-end fast approaching to commemorate both the worst and the best, because that’s life – a palette of colours with each brush stroke interspersing more and more until it all becomes blurry, the good and the bad hand in hand, not in opposition.
I haven’t written for Somebody’s Diaries in such a long time. I have wanted to many times, but it always felt like the wrong time. I was waiting to be well enough, to be positive and meaningful with my words so that the world can accept me. I have always felt that people who look …
