Started writing a memoir today..

I have always thought that writing a memoir was for older people, famous people or people who have done something significant in life. If you are not in these demographics then people will not be interested. And, to be honest I still think this is true. It does not mean that I should not write a memoir about my life so far. There are many aspects of my life that I had kept secret to protect people in the past, but there is a lot that could help others and maybe entertain as well.

Regardless, I am doing it for the process, not the outcome. I am doing it for the satiscation of it. I have been through many things in my life and had many adventures as well. There are many laughs, some weeping, and a lot of joy, as well as pain that was caused by external actions towards myself. Anyway, who knows if it will interest anyone? But I want to tell my story – as a lot of people have told stories about me in my personal life that were not true, that misrepresented me and I want to reclaim the truth. It is my life and it is not for others to tell me who I am, or accuse me of being what I am not, or to steal memories from me, or to pretend I am something different. It is my story, no one else’s. I want to be truthful and tell things that are not comfortable. I seek to be real and authentic always, at times I cannot say what I feel as it will benefit no one – as there is sometimes no honesty in others and therefore it is pointless.

I finally feel like I want to start telling it now. It has not been something I have wanted to do until now. Anyway, I started this journey today. It should be interesting. It is most likely as I have been recovering from wisdom teeth surgery. Have a great day, thanks for reading.
