Lewis On September 15th, I wrote a letter to a friend of mine who committed suicide in late December 2021 — and to be honest, I felt as if my soul was sucked out of me after the writing…

How is life up there? I guess it's better than the one you ran away from. — Dear Friend, It took me nine months to write this letter, and I think you know why. I was still grieving. I was processing the reality that you were gone for real. I know it’s partly not my fault that you took your life, but somewhere in my heart, I…

And it broke my spirit until this day. — There was once a comment directed to me, that said “ writing isn’t for you, find another hobby", and it broke my spirit until this day.

She left us in an endless grief— may God be her best guide, and may her soul forever rest in peace! — I’m not crying, nor sobbing for that matter.

But what if I avoid…

And I’m a full writer now. — Truth be told. If it wasn’t for the pandemic outbreak I wouldn’t be here on this platform writing articles for a peanut paycheck months in and months out. In other words, all the sweet thanks to the pandemic. I don’t know where I would be at this moment and what…

Taking you, through my journey as a content writer on Medium, since 2020 after the COVID19 made global headlines. — I've been a member of Medium for a series of months — and I mean months that now equals a year.

I don’t know about you, but writing on this platform has become a boredom killer since the day my job went under the bridge. — Funny how life baths some of us with bitter lemonade juices 24/7 for damn 365days a year.
