Author's Note
As the days pass, I find it more difficult to write about Briana. Even on the day I decided how Briana would be, I struggled to organize everything. As I was going through a difficult moment in my life, I was composing Briana's story. I feel relieved with each chapter I post because it allows me to let go of yet more heartbreak. Writing each chapter of this book was really difficult for me.
This story was the most difficult one for me to write. I had some of the same experiences as Briana. Every time I write this narrative, I feel so relieved because I feel like I'm getting my thoughts out there. While I'm publishing a new chapter, I feel like I'm revealing the shattered side of myself. Writing Briana brought about such a horrible yet releasing feeling.
Many of you might think that Briana is a joyful and cheerful person. That's what I listed in my character profile, at least. I wrote something unexpected because of this. I want you all to understand that not everyone who is happy and joyous is equally happy on the inside.
Briana is such a heartache for me but also my comfort person. With me, Briana went broke and then recovered. We've both felt the same suffering. We've been together in this journey.
One year. I wrote this for one year. It took so long because of the hard times. I had a hard time writing this novel. It wasn't easy for me to write my own experiences and pain. I know it took so long to complete this story. It was such a long ride for us.
Briana is and the only comfort character I've wrote.
Briana had a long ride and now, she's living the best life.
And I'm still healing.
Again, thank you for riding a long ride with us. It might be a painful ride but always remember that healing is not a linear process. You always have the choice to refocus, re-ground yourself, and accept that this is not "the end of the road." Continue turning the pages of your life while keeping each chapter. Recognize that you can rise and fall in order to grow emotionally and cognitively and that no one can heal you the way you will heal yourself.
See you on Life Series #3!
