How Does It
All Start?
Since my teenage years, I have started questioning myself about various aspects of life – including what I am meant to do, what brings real happiness and fulfillment, and what kind of choices I should make – given the various paths I can tread.
Over time, as I grew older, I eventually came up with the idea of creating this blog – with the purpose of sharing my life stories and insights (I hope so) that I have managed to come up with throughout my personal journey.
