A Break.
This will be my last post for a while. After writing 300+ articles over three years, I’ve decided to take a break from writing publicly.
This decision was not made lightly. This blog has been a sanctuary for me to share my most sincere thoughts. I’ve rambled about about religion, happiness and art; shared stories on medicine, introversion and suicide; cried over suffering, poetry and love. My ideas and writing have evolved over time and this blog has captured some of its most precious, delicate moments.
It depresses me to step away from this sanctuary, knowing the clarity and relief it brings to my conscience, but a time has come where I no longer feel able to write with genuine honesty. And if one cannot write with honesty, one should not write at all.
To the readers: this blog was never written for you, but I am deeply moved by the possibility of it having improved your life. Every email, comment or like on a post touches me like no other compliment can. It is a terrifying thing to cast your voice into the void; to hear it reaffirmed is endlessly comforting. Thank you.
This site will still exist to keep my old posts and thoughts alive but will no longer be updated. As for me, the future is uncertain. But if it contains books, stories, challenges and love, there must be good waiting.
Take care.
Eric
