MY THING

by Dina Srouji

Hi my name is Dina! I’m 28 and I have a hard time making a vision board. I was never the person with a major passion for something or anything for that matter. So I just went with whatever crossed my path without ever taking a moment to figure out what I want. However I can’t ignore the urge of wanting to know what my thing is any longer. By experiencing new stuff and taking some moments to look back I believe I’ll get some clarity. Follow my journey as I share my thoughts out loud, hoping we can make some sense of it as we go. A place to be all alone in this together.
