I am Cindy…
If only we weren’t her, life wouldn’t be such a disaster!
Cindy decided to start her blog in 2016.
She was an aspiring writer who dreamed of taking over the writing industry.
Hoping to hone her craft and learn along the way, she decided to tip-toe in a foreign land, oblivious to the gazillion opportunities that lie ahead.
She just had one dream. She wanted to make friends online.
Meet people she resonated with.
Talk to those who believed in the dreams she saw every night, staring into the night sky.
While she managed to find some, she came across people who questioned her choices.
“You waste so much of your time writing blogs. How about you find an actual job and make some money from it?” they said, leaving her dejected and planting seeds of doubts in her head.

It was December 2018, a few weeks after she had started her blogging journey, when someone commented on her blog.
“Could you please take your sob story somewhere else? Nobody wants to read your work,” tears welled in her eyes as she read those words.
“Guess they are right. Guess I should just quit!” she mumbled, giving up on everything she’d been working on!
