For Me, Medium Is All About Synchronicities

I find great poetry and articles every time I need them

Dear Diana and readers, I hope not to bother you too much with this week’s prompt, but it just occurred to me that my latest experiences on the topic are fully related to me being part of Medium membership.

I came here to find answers for my issues, to read smart, inspiring things, or just — great fiction. I came here in search of solutions to my problems and needs. And also- I am curious about projects that seem great potential.

As a bonus, I have found a beautiful community and the chance to publish my work and unleash my creativity. Although, not writing in my native language can be pretty challenging.

So, I just want to share my very last experience with synchronicities, something that “hit” me in an unexpected way.

On the 29th of August, I broke up with someone, in a bad way. I had a nervous breakdown. I was devastated.

I realized my life was just about to radically change, once again.

Most of all, I realized I didn’t want to be the person I was, anymore. I felt like I wanted to delete my painful, meaningless past experiences, and be born again. I somehow need a new life, to start everything from the beginning.

I want to become a better version of myself. Someone who feels good in her skin and with her life choices. Someone who makes peace with herself.

I had a strong sense of guilt for these thoughts. Who am I, to “delete” people from my existence, even if they make me feel so bad?

And then, just on that day when I was feeling so terribly depressed and lonely, I found this poem on Medium.

It has spoken to me very deeply and was exactly what I needed. I just can’t express it in words.

It’s a wise poem, so I just want to share it with you, hoping you will enjoy it and find it helpful, as it was for me.

This was a beautiful “coincidence” that helped me move on and try to figure out what my future will be.

Thank you all if you read this, and thank you Franco Amati
