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...

Advice for Freelancers! Hello again! I hope this new post finds you in good health and much peace of mind. I know how difficult it can be to try to establish yourself in a new market or even to try anything new. It is always good to start with advice, especially from people who were actually in your position and have done well for themselves. I think advice is especially useful for freelancers or those wanting to be. There are quite a number of people trying to make a living from freelancing. It is quite competitive, so standing out is crucial to getting good business. An acquaintance of mine, Alejandra, recommended a must read for freelancers. I find the information practical and helpful. Maybe it can help you too.

Something to Think About

What is Wrong with  Wrong ?         We hear about  sin , we hear about wrong doing, we hear about criminality and all liked terms. Maybe you've even heard of one that I have never heard. Sin is a term used from a moral or religious perspective to define unacceptable states or behaviours. Criminality, on the other hand, just as unacceptable, is defined by established laws, which also encompass moral issues. But why is wrong wrong?        If I should bite you now, what would happen to you? If I should bite you because I hate you, what would happen to you? If you should bite me back, what would happen to you and I? What would happen to us? Wrong doing/being, sin, crime, all these things hurt other people. It hurts us all; it hurts the people who experience it and it makes the ones who do these things worse.  Wrong doing and wrong being does not cause peace. It does not encourage patience, or love, or joy. It creates an...
