Across these three blog posts, Meesh’s narrative unfolds as a journey of self-acceptance and quiet revelation. Beginning with a deep appreciation for the emotional nuance of anime—particularly its ability to convey unspoken feelings—Meesh explores a lifelong pattern of self-censorship. Initially, he’d strategically omit details about his heritage to avoid scrutiny and discomfort. This culminates in a poignant realization: the parts of himself he’d deliberately concealed—his family history and complex cultural identity—are not something to be erased, but rather a core element of his being. The posts reveal a meditation on the courage it takes to embrace one's full self, even when that self challenges the expectations and assumptions of others.
