The Journey to Find Me is the story how The Well Known Stranger struggled to grow into the person he has become. It tells the story of how he let one person hold his value. Rather than choosing to value himself, he gave someone that much power over him, and it nearly destroyed him.
His story is different. He got everything he ever wanted, which blinded him to what he needed. So once he got older and did some introspecting after dealing with his first heartbreak, he realized that he had everything backwards. And he didn't learn the proper way to cope with heartbreak, so it led to a handful of broken hearts and notebooks full of the words that he never spoke. His message, although hard to find, is simply that you don't have to go through life alone. Yes, we may be single individuals; that doesn't mean we have to lone wolf everything. It took him almost eight years to accept that.
We all have a story to tell; we're just waiting for someone to listen. And some of us still are.
About the Author
The Well Known Stranger's hobbies consist of living in the moment, playing soccer, swimming, and listening to lo-fi late at night with one of his many hoodies. His family has always pushed him to be the best version of himself, although they didn't always see eye to eye. They always took care of business, and most certainly each other. He thinks if he wasn't a writer, he would probably be a financial consultant, because he loves helping people grow financially and showing people with a little patience you can go a long way.
