Most of us live two lives.
One is the life we perform: the smiles, the appropriate reactions, the polite responses, the carefully edited versions of ourselves that we offer to the world. The other is the life we feel: the unsaid apologies, the grief that never found an audience, the love that stayed hidden, the fear that learned to dress itself as calm.
This book explores the distance between those two lives.
Each story in Ten Percent Human is about someone who reveals just enough emotion to survive socially-and hides enough to survive emotionally. They are not dramatic. They do not beg to be understood. They simply exist, quietly carrying more than they show.
If you recognize yourself in them, that is not coincidence. It is the shared language of people who have learned restraint too well.
