I enjoyed reading the part where you mentioned that you were a writer in past lives. Although writing is not my profession — I work as a software developer — I’ve always had past lives as a writer too (specifically writing about football, just like you).

I remember always writing, and enjoying it. Nowadays, I do it more consistently, both in public and in private. I don’t make a living from it, nor do I think I would want to. But anyone who is a writer knows deep down that they are one, because we love words, reading, and languages.

Writing is the perfect tool for so many things, and we should value it more. Because we can only heal, learn, or make sense of things when we’re able to put into words what we’re living.

You really nailed the rollercoaster of being a writer – those highs and lows, and the whole struggle with self-identity. It's comforting and kinda cool to see someone else put those messy, hard-to-explain feelings into words. Your personal touch makes it super relatable. Keep sharing these gems!
