I first download slowly when I was hit with a bad surge of depression. I remembered how much I wanted to tell someone or to shout it to the world but sadly, I cannot do it in social media because my families and friends are in there and I don’t want to create a strange rumors afterwards. I tried to download venting appz but for some reason, I feel like it’s not going to help me. Then, there’s a small voice inside of my head who said, why not try sending letters? And I got curious if that’s possible in this technological age. And when I search for an application on play store, I was surprised to see this application. I told myself why not give it a try and so I did.
That’s how I started my journey on this app, I think I am just here for over a month but I already met wonderful and talented people. Sadly, some of my pen pals aren’t responding anymore, but I understand it because I know that they have their own life to live. But so far, it’s been a good start, and I continue to meet and to talk to different people from different countries. Actually, I am really stress-out at work and also I’m a workaholic so adding writing letters to my routine, creates a breather, where I can reply on my own free time unlike live chatting which stresses me a lot.
I am quite happy and satisfied with the app, I commended the creator and all the staffs. I hope you all continue to thrive so that you can help people like us, create authentic connections to each other.
Everyone has a unique story and wisdom to tell, so as I’ve said, I would gladly listen and I hope I can open my mind more to others, because my mind is like a labyrinth and I am still looking forward in meeting people who can complement my being as a close friend. Actually, I never had a real bestfriend in real life, I don’t know if it’s because of my attitude but maybe it’s due to my trust issues. Most of my old friends in real life, gave me traumas, since most of them either back stabbed me or created nasty rumors about me and the secrets I told them. It was horrible to think back even though it’s been a long time. That’s why I am glad with this application, because I found trustworthy people who I can safely open myself and my life one day at a time.
For all who experience difficulties in life, know that it will pass. Nothing stays forever, it only stays with us and when we allow it to be with us. Someday, everything will just turn to memories and it can either bring tears or smiles to our faces.
By the way, since I am meeting and talking to like minded people, I feel like more inclined in pursuing my passion for arts and writing. Somehow, the sharing of our talents actually helped me realized how I shouldn’t stop expressing myself uniquely in this world. Maybe somehow, I was thinking that my source of depression is my inability to express myself in reality. Now, I hope I could meet musicians, I am not a musician but I feel like I am losing interest in music. Well, it’s just a random thoughts lol. Maybe they can open my heart again to listening to music and to appreciate it.
Lastly, I am glad and thankful to all my penpals, I appreciate all of you as you all are. I am happy that we all meet at this time and this lifetime and I look forward to share more of our life experiences together. And also, I look forward to your next letters!
