There are a lot of reasons why we should be fascinated with writing. It’s like a therapy for some broken souls. It’s like an outlet of fear and anger, a weapon to combat pains and hurts. Try sometimes to put everything on a piece of paper (then shred it off, later!) and I tell you, your heart will feel like it’s being consoled temporarily. Some people write when they are overflowing with joy… or when their hearts cannot contain the happiness within and they are bursting to the seams. Writing is more of a heart full of spirit that one is eager to share with someone. It’s like a soul that never ceases to say, “I love you” till the other soul says, “I love you” back. Thoughts never cease on flowing till the soul pours out everything in words.
Writing is magical too, because it makes you closer to souls you can’t reach…it comforts lonely spirits… it befriends strangers… it heals broken hearts…and it simply gives life to a deserted world. I don’t know but there is that amazing fascination I get when I write. It makes me happy…it consoles me…it allows me to dream and dream…it gives life to my soul. There is always this strong force within me, wanting to explode! That’s why, I want other souls to discover the magic and fascination one can get from writing.
Believe me, writing is not that difficult. Everyone can write, as long as there is that spark in your heart to create an idea or to express a thought. It can be a thank-you note for a friend…a message of comfort for a weary soul…a smiley face put on paper with your name on it…some sharp words of pain when you soul is hurting…words expressing your love to someone…anything that goes in and out of your mind is a masterpiece for writing.
Start with some simple words…write everything that comes in your mind. Never mind whether it’s structured or not, grammatically correct, or lousy. Just write it out. Spontaneity is more important. Make writing as a habit. Write whenever you want…in the morning when you wake up, you will be surprised, where did all these thoughts come from…and in the evening, you will be happy to transcribe everything that has transpired during the day. Write whenever and wherever you feel like writing…you can be in the middle of your sleep and something within you wanting to be heard or poured out, get up and write! You can be reading a book, and an idea eventually spring out, document it! You can be in your solitary moment, and you just want to share your solitude with a friend, grab a pen and say what you feel. You see, every moment is valuable…every moment is worth remembering…every moment is fleeting that how we wish we all have eidetic memories to store it in our minds.
So why not try, writing it all out now…and someday, you will be thankful…you’ve learned how to write!
