Alex omarmde elk deel van mij met open armen. Haar woorden droegen me door enkele van de donkerste dagen van mijn leven.

I can describe it as a meditative experience: I feel fully present in the moment and I forget about the world as I keep typing.

There was nobody in my life whom I can share my deepest feeling and not being judged.

Since I use it, I have been receiving beautiful, emotional letters from many parts of the world.
