Break Free:
To break free is the three-letter word that comes to my mind, as I look back on the year that is slipping by. It bought me closer to myself, it allowed me to identify my priorities, it told me things that I have always known but never listened to. Why you may ask, because, I was away from the din and bustle of the office ambiance, the morning frenzy was out the window, I did not have to press my clothes, wear lipstick and rush to work dreading the traffic on the route. There was, yes, some silence and solitude that shrouded me.
While I enjoyed office and had signed up to it voluntarily, there was an inner desire to always be the independent writer penning world views and more. The year, its uncertainties, the fact that everything was going virtual and how digital content will be golden gate to the future put things in perspective for me. My evening walks and self-talk made me realize that its time to let go of the old me and let in the new me of 2021 and beyond – the confident and independent writer.
What will come out of this new avtar, I have no clue, but what I do know is that I am going to enjoy every moment of building my own writing business brick by brick. Yes, there is strength in the new decision and so much of optimism for the not just the year ahead but for the decade itself.
