Hi, thank you for reading. My name is Daniel D. Marquez and I am the owner of this journal. I am currently 20 years old, I live in Quezon City, and I am the youngest of one sibling. I have a bubbly, happy, and talkative type of personality. But the irony is, I am usually keeping that to myself until I personally know the person. The reason for that is because I am introverted and it always makes me shy to socialize. Nevertheless, I always make sure that I presented myself well and make the best impression among all of my first meet-ups. 

You can learn more about me by understanding my philosophy in life and that is; "Money is the root of all evil". It is rest assured that I will never lie and deceive for money because if I let myself be tempted with any amount, I might as well let myself be tempted with anything else, for the love of money is the root of all evil.

It's normal to feel sad.

It's normal to feel angry.

It's normal to feel anxious

and alone.

it's all part of human emotion. It is what makes us alive.

What's abnormal is to feel happy, all the time. There is no such thing as that, it is called toxic positivity.

We must accept reality as it is and learn to deal with it. What's important is having the ability to resolve, compromise, and develop as we experience problems. look beyond and see the beauty of the the challenges that we have regardless of how hard it is.

It's a normal day-to-day life for me to experience sadness and loneliness in a day. After all, I don't have any friends who I can talk to all the time. My one and only best friend that I had died this year due to Covid-19 complications. Since then, it's hard for me to handle my problems especially because I can't express them as much as I used to before; it all got stuck somewhere deep within me, waiting to burst out.

But this day is a very strange day for me because I got overwhelmed with my sadness that I can't function normally anymore. I had anxiety running all over my head and it keeps me from doing all of my school-related activities. I can't even do my leisure game anymore. I was too focused and exhausted with what I was thinking that doing nothing is enough for me to call it a day.
