I love books. I love words. They say actions speak louder than words. In my case it’s the exact opposite. I’m not saying actions don’t speak, they do, but you get to me a lot faster with words, hence my being overly careful with things I say and things I read.
There’s a truckload of things I’d like to achieve in my lifetime but I’ll talk about just one. Writing. The fact I’m starting to put pieces of mine out in the public scares the hell out of me, same time gives me hope that with time I’d be as good a writer as the ones I look up to.
My aim isn’t really to have my name etched in the hearts of all now and in years to come, I just want to speak from my heart. And if in the process my name becomes engraved in the hearts of many, good. If it doesn’t , I’d die having lived a fulfilling life, having let my words dry out,having painted in the hearts of those who came across my works, the painting in my soul.
Ok, ok, I lied. Please read whatever I post and let it be etched in your heart’s of hearts and bring out the beautiful parts of your that you’ve tried so hard to hide.
You ever watch a movie or read a book and at the end of the book/ movie, you’d do anything to be like the main character ? Though knowing it’d last only for a few minutes or hours, at most a day? Yeah that feeling is what I’d love for you to feel. I’d be content knowing that I inspired/ pushed you to be better even if for a short while.
Having to something and it relating to another person completely, just makes me feel like hey, looks like I’m not the only one with a crazy mind.
Started this online class on how to improve, my writing, and boy! Am I getting there.
How about you? What do you really aspire to achieve in years to come?
