Medium’s Story. How and Why I Started Writing on… | by Just Be Free | Oct, 2025
HEY…
I didn’t start writing for claps or followers, I just wanted a corner of silence where I could listen. I met you, it’s the best thing that has happened to me in my life full of depression and darkness.
Well, I decided to share this in my About Me — Part 2, but I thought if I added this, maybe my About Me would become boring and lengthy. So, here I am.
When I passed through the time of trauma, there was nothing. Life felt empty; there was darkness everywhere. I thought I would never recover, but somehow I did. God helped me. I cried in front of him, and he listened; he always does.
Today, when I opened my diaries, my emotions were strange. I was happy, sad, laughing, and stunned at the same time.
Well, my writing journey started in February, but in just diaries. For straight five months, I wrote in diaries. And one day, having unnecessary scrolling, I discovered Medium. That day was July 13, 2025th, a Sunday. Haha! What Sunday? Sunday late night. Yeah! But I started writing there in August…
If Medium never existed in my life, my words would still be there, but lost in the ink of my pen and the smell of the pages of my diary. Not here, in front of you!
Some things arrive in life
Unannounced, Unnamed
They leave behind a quiet peace
Yet never announce why they came!
I hope you enjoyed my little, simple journey.
Leave 50 claps. Share your thoughts, and yes, don’t forget to have sukoon (comfort)!
