Just write, keep it

          Back when I was in high school, I first learned the craft of feature writing from my mother. She once told me that I have a talent in writing and that I should join the school paper publication. But in my mind, I said “No I don’t have, you’re just telling me that because I’m your daughter and you want me to feel great.”

Considering my thoughts, I didn’t pursue what my mother had told me. I just love to write for my emotions to keep. I always have a tickler with me in my school jumper pocket. Whenever I feel lonely and no one to talk with I poured down my feelings written there.

          Writing was an escape for me back then because it did gave me the chance to be someone else. To be able to feel great everyday is something that doesn’t usually happen. There’s a sense of happiness and satisfaction when I read my past writings. Even though they are not published and I am not that good in writing like others do, but still I am proud because I am on my own.

         I cannot be them because that will not be “me” anymore. I am unique, I am human and therefore I am subject to improve. Our destiny relies on what and who we really are as a person. Never underestimate yourself just because someone is much higher than you. Sometimes, failures are there for us to strive for more and succeed.

         My thoughts and ideas will continue flashing in and as long as I am not yet buried six-feet under, I will write and write for more memories to keep.

Spread love.
