"It's supposed to have a title..."

What if it doesn't possess one? What if that's exactly the title in itself?

"It's supposed to have a title..."

When titles tell us everything we need to know about the story waiting to be told inside, yet we don't even realize it… THOSE are the best crafted titles.

When a title drops the penny (aka, the spoiler) and we don’t get to hear it until much later… mischief and innocence hang out like two kids who just met in a park and, from the very first moment, start acting like life-long besties.

I left this post sitting in my drafts for two months… approximately.

During all that time, I crammed my drafts with more pieces of writing that I haven't dared to share—postponing for the millionth time, in what has now stretched over a decade, my dream of becoming a writer.

I never changed the title of the post. And it continue to drew me in, but I never understood why.

I also spent those two months making excuses about not having the “perfect name” to christen this newsletter and finally get it started once and for all.

SPOILER: The title-non-title of it, I foreshadowed it myself in the header of what would become my first post. This post.

If you're reading this, it means I didn't postpone the dream for the million-and-first time. It means I've already set that desire in motion with a full tank.

Thank you for taking the time to read.
