I like writing little essays
Actually, I also like writing poems in my own style

At first, I only wrote them for myself
In the very early days, nobody liked my posts
I did not care how other people saw me

I was just expressing my anger to the world
Expressing my sadness
Expressing my happiness

As I kept writing… some people started to notice, and started to tell me they understood me

Then I began to care
Care about how they saw my writing

Gradually, it felt like I was no longer writing only for myself
If I were only writing for myself
I would not need to worry about format
I would not need to worry about awkward sentences
I would not need to worry about whether other people could understand
I would not need other people’s approval

Because there are more people I care about now
And there are more connections tied to interests too

But why bother?

If I want to say something, then I should just say it
Back then, it was exactly because I was honest about my weakness and my anger
That I attracted the people who were truly worth staying connected with

The people who care about me will not stop reading my little essays just because I go a bit crazy for a moment, right? haha
