I have to admit that the last couple of days have been rather edifying for me. What started as a desire to return to my writing last week turned out to be more complicated as I found out that my username and password for my blog had somewhat “changed”. To be honest, I was quite surprised. I mean who the heck would want to even “hack” my account??
Anyhow, I managed to solve the problem sometime mid-last week but I gotta say that the “additional delay” in my writing splurge got me even more hungry to pen my thoughts down. I guess that’s what happens when you have to wait for something you really want a little longer isn’t it? In anycase it’s great to be writing again.
And this time, I have begun to just develop a more-free flow writing style. In the past I was quite adamant that my writing style be of the highest quality as my goal was to use my blog to improve on my writing eloquence. Well, when you have that sorta pressure breathing down your neck, it’s quite obvious the mood to just generally write also diminishes with it, as you start thinking that “nothing I ever write will be of worthy publishing and for people to read”.
But the truth of the matter is, when you write from the heart, as the heart is not bounded by rules, so it will also reflect in the craft that is being produced, in this case your writing. And when you write with such joy and passion, those feelings are echoed and shared in the words. And that’s what I call “the joy of writing”.
The ability to just freely express yourself through words and later share those stories with those around you is something I have found to be quite valuable and its something that I do treasure deeply. It also helps clear the mind as once the thoughts are hard-coded into something tangible, the mind is able to freely “let it go” without much difficulty and begin to process newer thoughts and ideas.
Ahh, to have finally rekindled that joy of writing once again…
