I've always had a deep connection to words, a love that has been with me since I was young. But, like many of us, I found that this passion was often pushed aside by the demands of a busy everyday life.
It wasn't until recently, when I finally found the time to visit my family home, that I was reminded of this love. I looked through my childhood memories basket and found it filled with papers, letters, and diaries—things that inspired me and emotions written down by my seven-year-old self. Holding those pieces of my past, I realized that growing up, writing was a piece of myself that I hadn't lost yet.
