Most of my writings are things I reflect from my childhood mem | The Sun & Her Flowers

Most of my writings are things I reflect from my childhood memories. I hope you don't get tired of them.

I used to go to the hospital A LOT for my recurrent tonsillitis. Sometimes every two weeks. And everytime me and mom sat in the doctor's office, he/she would ask, 'እሺ ኤደን, እንዴት ነሽ?' And I would reply saying I'm fine. On multiple occasions they laughed at me for that because if I was okay, why was I there, right? But I never understood why they laughed because I thought that was the default answer. I thought that's what you were supposed to say, regardless of your circumstances. I still do because you don't spill out all your problems to the neighbor who casually asked you how you're doing. But what about when I question my well being? What about when I wonder if my mental health is anything close to good? Does the white lie apply here too? Or do I actually face the thing I keep running away from and admit that I need to prepare for the war ahead of me?
