This Is Not for Everyone

  I am not here seeking admiration or devotion. I am here to be — and to show others that this way of being is not scary. I write because it is my salvation from messy thoughts and overwhelming days. Writing puts my mind in order. It gives me space for self-love and for catching my breath. I cannot be here all the time. Actually, I probably could — but I do not want to. I do not want to pay the price of viral fame. I do not want to lose myself in the illusion of the world around me. I do not want to forget where it all started or lose the ground under my feet. Being able to disappear is a necessity for me. It allows me to rest, to recharge, and to stay focused and calm. I disappear from the noise. From expectations. From the pressure that tells you that if you do not constantly do more, you will lose track or fail. When I come back, I see the world more clearly. Without pink glasses.

My Brother’s 18th Birthday Party

This was the reason we dropped most of our tasks and came back to my hometown — my brother turned 18! Which, in Bulgaria, means he is officially an adult. Time flies so fast — he and my sister (almost 15) are growing up so quickly.

The birthday celebration was more like a family gathering at a restaurant. Part of his mother’s side of the family (he and I don’t share the same biological parents) came as well, including some relatives from Germany. We had an absolute blast! There were drinks, lots of laughter — it was a truly lovely experience.

I honestly can’t remember the last time I had so much fun. My glass was always full of wine, and I loved it! It was a bit noisy, but I still managed to chat with my brother, my sister, my family, and even some of my brother’s friends — who thought I was 10 years younger, which of course made me like them even more!

It was such a great night. At first, people were a bit sad that Veni and I left our little boy at home — but since he usually goes to bed around 8:00–8:30 p.m., and the party started at 7 p.m., we decided not to take him and instead enjoy the evening as a couple — with plenty of drinks and celebration.

My sister and I even had a mini photo session in the restaurant’s bathroom, which turned into a 10-minute laugh fest. We don’t see each other very often, so when we do, we just can’t stop talking. As teenagers, they both have so much going on in their lives, and emotions are running high — someone needs to help cool them down now and then.

After the restaurant closed, we went to my brother’s apartment and had a few more drinks. From what I saw and heard, Veni had a great night too — even when we weren’t next to each other, I could hear him laughing.

I’m so happy and grateful that we got to share this moment together. I think it will stay with us as one of those special memories we’ll always look back on with a smile.
