  • I Am The Way i Am...: but sometimes I just don't understand

    Min J

    Paperback (Independently published, July 2, 2020)
    I am the way I am, but sometimes I just don't understand. I don't understand why I go through things, and feel things that other people don't. I sometimes feel lonely, but I'm learning to push through, love myself, and understand my place in this world. Maybe more people are like me, but can't find their words to connect with me. Maybe if I take a chance, use my words, and become vulnerable, my story can really help someone else. Maybe that's why I'm here.
