Hard Days, Heavy Burdens, and Chasing a Dream

Lately, watching what’s happening in my country fills me with deep despair. Injustice is so blatant that people have started questioning the very concept of fairness. When the judiciary is not independent and the law serves only a select few, how can we trust the future?

But it’s not just the country’s situation—I’m also fighting my own battles. Mandatory military service stands as a wall before me. While I try to build my identity and dreams, the thought of losing my freedom suffocates me. On top of that, being unemployed and struggling financially makes things even harder.

Yet, I have a dream: to go to America. I want to build a life where I can feel safer and freer. As I watch justice and freedom slowly vanish in my country, my desire to live somewhere I can truly experience them grows stronger each day.

I know this dream seems impossible right now. But I’ve learned that “impossible” is just another word for obstacles we haven’t overcome yet. Even though this country wants to silence people like me—people who dare to dream—we still exist. And we will keep existing.
