Writing is a vehicle for contemplation for many. They claim it helps them to reflect on their life. Even more for those it is a method of recording their thoughts, emotions and most importantly it allows them to keep track of their life’s events. It is more likely as capturing memories and time. Then again, for me it is totally different. It is not that I disagree with writing lovers but I am a poor writer. The thought of it is terrifying me. I tired couple of times to keep a dairy where I can reflect on my daily activities, I considered it to be a way of meditation. I supposed by keeping a dairy this would help me to get outside myself and act as a neutral trusted friend who can foresee the flaws, gently point them out and advise remedies. However, I wasn’t able to write a complete beautiful thought or even worse describing a typical routine. My writing came out as scattered words, chronically wrong. As a result, I was discouraged and I decided that writing is not my field of interest.
Oh, Sabha! I am sorry that you have felt discouraged about your writing. I would like to encourage you, though. You were able to express yourself clearly in this paragraph, and your text here successfully communicates to the reader the emotions that were on your mind.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, this is a very successful piece of writing! With time and practice, you should be able to gain confidence, and in the end, I suspect (or at least hope) that you will, indeed, enjoy communicating through writing.
Thanks a lot for your support & yes I hope I will achieve this goal.
ReplyDeleteWow... wonderful writing!
ReplyDeleteOh, dear.
ReplyDeleteYou are so humble, Sabha!
