Deciding to start a blog was a decision prompted by a life-changing event that happened several years ago. The hardships I endured during that time period left a lasting impression, resulting in sleepless nights and a persistent effect that persists to this day.

​

This turbulent time gave me heightened awareness and made me examine every aspect of my life. A severe self-consciousness permeated every aspect of my life, from my feelings and appearance to my words, deeds, and even social interactions.

​

Being naturally uncomfortable expressing my ideas and feelings to other people, I took comfort in being silent and internalized the weight of my feelings. But this isolated coping strategy backfired, making the weight I carried around with me even heavier.

​

It was against this background that the notion of using words to express my experiences began to take shape. I made the brave decision to share glimpses of my reflections with my circle of friends after moving to Dubai and meeting them. Their sincere reaction, stirred by the resonance of those pages’ words, served as the impetus for me to start a blog and share my literary pursuits.

​

I made the decision to share my works with a larger audience and open a window into my world after giving it some serious thought. I didn’t make the decision to share my innermost thoughts and weaknesses lightly; rather, it was motivated by a desire to establish a connection and promote communication.
