The Birth of Kanashimi

Kanashimi : Sorrow (Japanese)

It’s only the first quarter of 2020, but I have never felt so down under. People have praised me, and they have stepped on me. I then lost my trust and emotions, lost all senses of love and affection, lost myself as a person.

Everything went too abruptly that I felt like I’m slowing down. And Kanashimi is a platform where I cry out my pain, where I pour out all the unsaid words.

As painful as it gets, I’ve never felt so secured by myself. I know now that I can depend on myself and only myself. I understand that believing in other people is important but not as important as believing in yourself. I know that sometimes silence is crucial, as crucial as communication.

The past are made to be learnt, to be remembered, but not to be mourned over.
