Freedom For Me!


I was going through Writer's Digest's 'Famous Writing Quotes' page, when I discovered this gem attributed to writer Barbara Kingslover. This quote, I'm about to share, has truly touched me and I thought it was important to share it with you;

"Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer."

When I read it, I felt sun rays open insided my clouded brain. And the great chain that once imprisoned me that is wheeled by any wirter's dreadful foe - worry, was suddenly loosed, and I was set free.It felt as though I was an over-inflated balloon, on the point of popping, and someone came and let out some of the air and now I was just right again. Do I sound crazed? What am I talking about?

I don't think people truly understand the stress that writer's face when doing any kind of writing. Sometimes the fear that it won't be appreciated is so strong, you feel like quitting, or you bury what you've written. This idea or rather philosophy that Barbara Kingslover has shared is truly a breath of fresh air to me. I thank God that He had this thought of hers recorded for me to find. Peace, peace at last for me, now whenever I write, I will be driven by this one thought, 'what do I have to share?' Freedom has come to me in the form of writing.

Cheers...

Never Give Up!

Life can be a chore. Sometimes it gets exciting, and you get hopeful. But sometimes it crashes, like a torpedo taking a dive, and you feel like, well, crap. These ups and downs of life are really based on our feelings. Feelings change everyday, many times. To determine that your life is a failure or success based on your feelings is therefore unreliable and dangerous. Why? We go through so many things everyday. Some things are bad and some things are good. If every time you feel bad about something, you become hopeless and sink into despair, you are putting your whole life at risk, over a moment in time. And conversely, if you have something great going on now and you feel good and make decisions on how you feel, even though you might be happy now, those decisions might make you unhappy later. Never make decisions on your feelings. I know this now, because I have made the mistakes and I have gotten so low in my feelings that I have actually attempted suicide more than once. Don...
