freak my spork

Over the past few months, a lot has changed me. Don't worry - I won't go into detail and bore the hell out of you. But I do want to tell you something that a special person told me just a few days ago. He told me to write what I feel, and if I had to, change stuff later on. And I realized something important once I started writing how I feel:

No matter what goes on in your life, writing helps. You must remember, though, that you have to write with your heart. Your fingers and your brain have nothing to do with what you feel. You can't control what you feel or decide to feel a certain way. It just comes, and as long as you let your mind loose for a while, to let your heart do the talking, writing will come naturally.

This advice - writing what you feel - is meant to be passed on. It will help writers for generations to come, fueling their motivation. Because once you're proud of something you write, you gain strength. You can feel it physically building in your body, your fingers racing to touch every key, or scribble every letter. Writing becomes part of you, and after this, there's nothing you can do to stop it.
