You just wake up one day, maybe on a Tuesday morning or a Saturday afternoon, and something feels … different. Not [...]
Sometimes, the truth doesn’t heal. It just hurts. It is a cliché saying that the truth will set us free. Free? But at what cost? Breaking down? Crying yourself to sleep every night? Questioning everything around you? Yes, I somehow still agree that truth sets us free. But what people always forget to mention is [...]
