I wasn’t planning to take up this challenge for two major reasons- I am trying to come back to blogging and thus I don’t want to post everyday just for the sake of it; and April being exam time, I won’t be able to write much. Yet, I am here. Cyranny’s post about theme ideas made take it up. There was this theme running on in my mind for quite some time that I wanted to talk about here and when I realised that A-Z challenge may help me structure my thoughts, I decided to take the challenge. I’ll try my best to complete the challenge on time.
Being myself makes me happy. There is a sense of relief in doing what you actually want to do. Being myself makes me love myself more. I’m learning to be myself.
I’m not going to talk about how unique I am or how unique my journey has been. But I’m going to talk about the little things that each one of us faces in life, about how they I’ve come to embrace them over the past few years, of how I’ve accepted my not-so-easily acceptable feelings, thoughts and actions.
Join me as I share my journey of Learning to be Myself. I’ll add the links to all the posts about my journey in this post.

Being your true self and loving yourself, with all of your idiosyncrasies can, sometimes, take a lifetime. I’m on my own journey.

Couldn’t agree more. I guess it will take a lifetime for me too. Each day discovers a new side of me. Would love to learn from your journey. 🙂

It’s been a bumpy road, no doubt, full of strife, anger, confusion and bad behaviors. Lets just say it started with bad parenting and got worse from there. My recovery didn’t really start until 2011…I was 45. There’s been a lot of inward reflection and giveaways. My life is much more peaceful but, I still have work to do.
I don’t mean to sound overly vague. It’s hard to convey an ongoing lifetime in a comment section.
Nice to meet you, Saumya. I’m Victoria…or Vic.

Yeah conveying everything in a comment isn’t possible. Introspection and letting go has helped me too. I’m glad that you’re at peace with yourself now. We’ve all got miles to go to sort our lives.
Though I’m not very sure but my let’s-sort-this-life journey started somewhere in 2015. I was 19 or 20 then. There’s a whole lot of things that I need to experience 🙈
Nice to meet you too Vic. 😄😄

“Being myself makes me happy.” Golden words.
I look forward to your daily posts.
It’s interesting how I wouldn’t have guessed that you went/ are going through such difficulties. You always sound so social and well-adjusted.
Good luck with the challenge. May it help YOU learn more about yourself and help you heal and get stronger.

I have a lot of faces, as I said in one of my posts. This challenge is to remove a mask and vent out. I’ve been wanting to say all this for a long time, but it takes courage. I guess I’ve gathered some of it at least. I appreciate for your well wishes. ❤
