Great read! I turned 29 recently having been 27 at the beginning of Covid. I think this acute consciousness of the transient nature of life is exacerbated by the current situation where people's lives are on hold but time continues to tick.
i remember crying so hard i threw up around 12:15 am in a summer camp bathroom stall on my 12th birthday,, and this wonderful little letter made me feel a little nicer about it and the worries i had then, esp since im going into my twenties in july! another thing, when i was about 14ish, i followed a lovely writer called chloe on tumblr and im so glad to have kept my digital connection going :) this is my first newsletter of many and im looking forward to the rest!
somehow i ended up here and i’m so glad i did! you have a new subscriber foreva. it inspires me that you want to be a writer so you write. sounds so simple but in actuality is very tricky. WRITE ON BABY! thank you for giving me a little pep in my step today love u stranger.
Ah, the cruelty of time that waits for no person. I am one of those people who never thought much about birthdays until this New Year. I will turn 26 and I don't know where some of the years of my life have gone. What did I do? Were there milestones? It feels like amnesia.
Perhaps I will write about my journey with life and age as well. Hmm.
I started quarantine when I was 19 and my 21st birthday is in 2 weeks. I feel like I missed a pivotal year in my life where I was supposed to grow. How can I be 21 if I didn’t experience 20? Thankyou for writing this. Can’t wait to read more.

time is a strange monster we can’t help but want to take home and love while it chews up our favorite pair of shoes
Beautiful. Time ticking on is only good because I get to read more of your work as a result
