My Inleo Experience.
Back when I first heard about Inleo’s writing prompts, after being told a lot about it by my mentor on this space, I felt would I be able to really do this, hope I won't stop in a months time, but he was a good one, he tried his best to make sure I do well, he's thriving really well, I would too. After going through it for some time, trying to know my way around and all, something about it pulled me closer, it promised to be the best so I plunged in, unsure but curious.
I started, writing has not been that hard for me, once I get my hands on a note with pen, or better still, if I have my phone with me, just straight to my note app, it's all good. And in those few days, the Inleo UI became more than a platform, it became a friend, a companion that welcome me into a fresh world where my thoughts mattered and where my voice had a home, I am seen and comfortable, my opinion mattered, I was able to connect and all. I loved how clean everything looked, it didn’t just feel like logging into a platform, it felt like stepping into a part of myself I hadn’t explored in a long time.
And as the days turned into weeks, the prompts stretched me in ways I never expected. They made me connect, laugh, reflect, argue with myself, and even cry sometimes. Even up until last weekend I still sit to think, I thought deeply how a simple prompt could dig out old memories or force me to dream new dreams. It just felt so real and good how I could answer deep questions no one was really asking me in my daily life. There was something healing about putting pieces of my mind into words.
The platform was buimt so perfectly that's it's so easy for me to pour my heart out, it doesn't look stiff, hard or forced, they made space for being honest with every single thing, its such a safe and cool space. Its home. I have written about so many things in the past few months, have shared a lot, connected and all, one of my favorite moments this month was writing about hope, a word so simple, yet so heavy in this country where fuel prices can eat into your soul and where plans scatter like pepper scatter scatter, smiles.
When I was writing about it (hope), I wrote about it from a different place, a place deep within me, not because anyone forced me to but because the environment, this platform, this space made it natural, it made vulnerability feel like a strength and not a weakness. There a whole lot of things I have gone through and I find it hard sharing it with people, but here on inleo, I find it easy to share, I always find myself returning to Inleo, like returning to that space where no one will judge me, where people really care.
This platform has become a part of me, how I read others stories, the connections and interactions, it has helped cleared the path for me to run, to sail, to be free and all. Looking back now, this one month of writing daily has been one of the most transformative experiences I’ve had in a long while.
Not just about writing, trying to be the best and all, but it has helped me found parts of me I didn’t even know I had lost. It had made the journey smooth and beautiful for me. And for that, I am grateful beyond words, I am grateful to @inleo grateful to @leogrowth for this wonderful platform, grateful to everyone that's a part of this, thanks for making this journey easy, thanks for being the best. It wasn’t just a writing challenge. It became a quiet revolution inside me, one that leads to a prompt at a time.
