Starting April 2019 and Ending April 2020

I’m new to Medium. I like this website because it allows me to read and write at the same time. I have countless ideas I want to write about; at the same time, I can’t stop reading what other authors have to say. It’s not an addiction yet, but it might turn into one after a while. But I’m not worried about spending too much time on Medium — after all, reading the articles isn’t only breathtaking, but also useful.

I have decided to commit to Medium for one full year. This is something I need, and it will benefit me a lot. You can read about my motivation below.

I’m Looking for Inspiration

Winter affected me greatly due to gloomy weather and personal issues. It was followed by quarantine and nearly a total lockdown around the world. Forget the world: I can’t even go outside. One of my neighbours is infected by COVID-19, which means I only leave my home when I have no choice. For example, tomorrow, I will visit the pharmacy to get my prescription refilled, and I also need to buy milk from the grocery store. Except for those activities, I have barricaded myself in my bedroom.

I have also been looking for a source of inspiration recently. I’m facing some health problems, and while they are manageable, it can be a challenge…
