Location: Poland | Thanks Riad for the great competition and wonderful puzzles! I admire both logic and beauty of all of them. You do an amazing job every year! Btw, may I write some emotional shit? Yolo, let's do it! I have been struggling with a major depression, anxiety problems and drug abuse for a long time. And it is not only a fight against stigmatization which is a serious problem here where I live. First of all, it is a fight against myself - my low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence and emotions. I do not usually care about results but I must admit that this time is a little bit different. When you are hitting the bottom, every little or bigger thing, which increases your confidence, makes you feel that you can get back to life. It is still going to be a tough road ahead but let it be a good point to go through it :)
And also, thanks to all people who helped preparing the competition and to all participants. Congratulations to all of you and see you somewhere in the world :) Thanks! |
