RE: Write As If You're Already Dead
I used to care , I cared a lot , what would people think . Then I realized , they are going to judge anyways so I could write as I please . Something I've shared are beyond personal , embarrassing and I'm sure I would get judged for it , being forced to marry , being unemployed and etc but it is who I am today . I have become strong , independent , and eager . I'm not afraid to share my story anymore , because it is the truth , and speaking the truth helps you build confidence . Truth is what people want to hear , it helps you connect better with society . I have grown up hearing "what will people say" when you stop caring about what people will say, that's the day you truly start living . @stellabelle
I guess some parts of me are dead , and what is not I should just pretend . Pretending moves us from reality
what's the "forced to marry" part about? Have you written about that?
Actually I have , one simple version , and one in deep thoughts since people wanted to hear more

I just read it. OMG. This is absolutely horrible, and yes, I can relate on some level. I think you're a brave person for revealing all this. So, are you in NY now? And raising your baby alone? We need to chat soon, because now I finally understand why you see some similarities....our stories are similar, but I would have to admit, yours is more tragic.
That fact that you took your time out to check my page out , it truly was an honor . I really appreciate your support ❤️ I would love to catch up with you sometime and know your story . He's actually not here yet and probably won't be until December or so , so yes, I'll be raising my baby alone until then
