The Handwriting Tag

I was tagged by the super awesome Thirtynwordy and decided to join in on the fun! I’m sorry it took me almost 2 weeks to get this done but better late than never! Since I completely forgot to write the link to the person I decided to tag here it is Anna Cottage 

“Writing is the painting of the voice”

I started writing in middle school. It gave me an escape from real life. Aside from making straight A’s in all of my writing classes, I’ve always felt that my skills are nowhere near close to perfect. But that’s okay. Someone once told me I should continue to write no matter what. I said to them that there’s not much of a point if no one reads it. That’s a lie. Writing can be therapeutic regardless of if someone reads it or not. Since I started writing again, I have felt a small relief from certain things in my life. I’m able to express certain emotions without horrible repercussions.

“All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.”- Edgar Allan Poe

I didn’t wake up to a phone call this morning like I did 3 years ago. That was a relief. Last year, I stopped expecting bad things to happen on this day. I just thought that maybe if I didn’t expect bad things then it would be just like any other normal day. I tried that again this year but it didn’t work out as well.

“You know you’ve read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.” Paul

Hello fellow bloggers!

I am one book away from finishing one of the best book series I have ever read. I dread the day that I turn to the last page of the last chapter. I think I just might cry. Once that book is finished, I have no clue what to read next.

“Where words fail, music speaks”

 

Isn’t is odd when you feel like you have so much to say and yet nothing comes out? I’m still new to blogging. Most of my writings are safely tucked away in my personal journal. It seems so easy to write when no one can critique what you have to say or how well you say it.  Or should I say write it? It seems that most of my ideas come at the most inconvenient times…when I’m busy or not around a laptop or paper.

“A room without books is like a body without a soul.” Marcus

I didn’t read much as a child. Not because I didn’t want to but because I had a very hard time focusing on any one thing at a time. I wasn’t always like that. Before my parents divorced, I was your normal, happy child without a care in the world. After they announced that, “things just weren’t working out” my life changed. I couldn’t focus, and I hardly went to school. I’ve always believed that every human on earth has their own battles to fight. My battle, at the time, was no worse than the next person’s battle. Either way, I was a child and unable to cope with what was forced into my happy bubble. I guess you could say I shut down in a way. My happy bubble became a sad bubble where all I needed was myself and darkness. I just kind of gave up.
