About 2 weeks ago I created an account on tumblr, because I've heard a lot about it in the past and I was just curious why people like it so much. The main thing about it is that everybody there is anonymous. Most of the people there don't use their real names or pictures and they share really personal information with complete strangers. This made me think about how we often can't talk about our feelings or problems with the people close to us, but it's easier when it's a bunch of strangers. It's probably, because we're so afraid of being judged by the society that we only feel safe when we're anonymous. Being judged all the time can be quite stressful, so I understand why Tumblr got so popular.

Me and my friend were attending the same dance classes for almost a year. We both love it, so we talked about it everyday, showed each other cool videos that we found on youtube or rented studio space together just for fun. It changed when she suddenly had some kind of a breakdown. She started telling me that she would never be good enough and everybody is so much better than her. She used to enjoy dance, but she decided not to do it anymore. It made me notice how easily people give up things they love just, because they think they're not enough. I understand why it happens, we all have moments like that, however, I don't think quitting is a good option.
