I have been thinking about blogging for quite some time and I wanted to do so anonymously because I don’t have much confidence in my writing skills and myself. Hence, the reason why you will only see my initials (which represent my first and last name) and the number 3 (which is the day of the month I was born on).

As this will be my first blog, I will not bore anyone who is reading this with a lot of details. I will try to be as short as I can. I am 34 and currently studying to complete my Masters degree in Comparative Literature. Writing on this platform is a therapy for me as I have gone through a lot of struggles with my personal feelings for a long time. I have always found it tough and to a certain extent exhausting to share what I feel with others. Not to say that I have also felt that I would be judged for however I have been feeling about certain particular issues. I have been going to counseling sessions lately and feeling better but I still feel that I need something more. That is why I want to share my feelings and experiences publicly in the hope that this allows me to face what I have been going through over the years.

I cannot remember much from my early childhood (from being months old to about 4-5 years old) apart from me being a very happy kid when my little brother was born. The years that followed have been full of ups and downs though and have created everlasting memories in my mind, some of which I can only wish I could have erased by waving a wand like Harry Potter would to perform magic. I will go in depth about these memories in other blogs that will follow over the next few days and months.

I am not sure yet about the frequency with which I will publish but it is certain that I will be back with the second blog very soon.
