About me

was born in Brazil in 1992. From a very early age I was highly emotionally sensitive and had an overactive mind, which ensured that I suffered to an extreme extent not only while facing unpleasant situations but also afterwards, and not rarely before as well. Thus, during a moment of disturbance, I was just like any other kid who feels threatened, sad and scared, but after the moment was gone and before any similar moment occured, I would dwell on the previous painful experience, to the point of losing control of my thoughts and emotions.

As I became a teenager, my condition got worse and I found myself feeling depressed and hopeless on a daily basis, which was not only due to the new experiences of dissapointment, difficulties and frustration, but also due to past experiences which I had not quite left behind yet, especially since some of those past experiences continued to go on.

Unconciously, as some sort of survival mechanism I managed to allow myself to find comfort in getting into troubles and having "fun". I was full of smiles, jokes and crazy ideas that attracted attention, which made sure I got to know many people, and commonly I was surrounded by them. However, at the same time, when I was alone I was a completely different person, not rarely I had suicidal thoughts and was never happy about myself and my life.

Therefore, I must say that while near people I wore a mask, that was supposed to hide my true self, the one that was sad, frustrated, anxious, angry and weak.

Noticing that, and considering the heavy bad influence some people around me were having upon me, I decided to begin slowly isolating myself (when I was around 15 years old). Now, instead of expressing myself out there, I became more silent and more of an observer, not only observing people around me but also myself, my thoughts, emotions and responses to situations. That was the first step taken that led me to where I am now.

Now, not only I became free of depression, anxiety and anger issues, but I managed to learn so much about the human behaviour, human psychology and emotional aspects. I became a student of others but especially of my own person, which transformed radically, not to a perfect or near perfect state but to a state without suffering. Which is why this blog exists. I started when I was in a constant state of suffering and continued with it so far because I want others to have a chance to be inspired to reflect in ways they never thought about, reflect about things they never considered before.

Such self-reflection shall inspire self-consciousness, and in turn self-consciousness shall lead those from suffering to self-respect, self-love, satisfaction, inner strength, emotional stability, serenity, peace of mind and success in life. For one to be happy, it is necessary to attain these attributes.

My journey continues to get deeper and deeper, and more profound discoveries I keep on doing, hopefully it all manages to help those in need of a friendly hand.

I'm here to be that friendly hand, may my name and face be forgotten but not the messages I bring.
