Adventures with Anda
Welcome to the gateway to my inner thoughts. Writing is how I understand the world, how I make sense of what is happening around me, and how I get myself through it. I try to embrace obstacles and remember my worth. The following articles are of my adventures, challenges, and triumphs. Most of what I write is raw and only lightly edited. This is the place where my words can flow free. Please be kind when it comes to grammar mistakes and long winded sentences, I write in a stream of consciousness style that tends toward storytelling more than literary mastery.
“I must write it all out, at any cost. Writing is thinking. It is more than living, for it is being conscious of living.”
