About Me

I’ve always felt lost.
I’ve spent most of my life now searching for my place in this world and wondered why I was here for.

Then one day by the end of 2023, I noticed that something always comes to me naturally : writing.

How did I not realized that it was my natural gift is beyond me !
After all, in the past, I would journal a lot, write poems, and so on. I would always have a pen and jounal with me.

But now that I recognized my liking for writing, one question remained : what do I write about ?

I don’t have the amazing skill of creating a whole fictive universe with different characters like some of my favorite authors (even though I would love that !).

But I remembered that I wanted to create a blog a few years ago. The problem was that I didn’t know which niche to choose. Not surprising since I never could choose one passion either.

The only things I had were all the experiences and memories of my life, what I learned from them, how they affected me and so on.
Nothing exciting, I thought. Most depressing, really.

I was ready to give up on this idea when I came across an IG page of an asian lady (I wish I could remember the name). She was posting about her experiences of growing up in an asian household and how her parents treated her.
They were definitely not happy memories. And still she wrote about it.

I found it courageous of her.
I found it inspiring.

I thought “if she had the courage to do it, why would I not try and write about my own experiences ?”

So here it is, The Quiet Bloom.
A blog that revisit my past but is also a way for me to reclaim my voice.

Here, I share parts of myself and of my life that I never dared share with family members or friends. I share the good, the bad and the ugly.
And by doing this, I also free and reclaim myself. No more mask of perfection.

I always pray that the people who need to read my texts easily find my blog.
So if you’re here, chances are it was for a reason.

Welcome to my inner world.

I’m glad you found me.
