A Pen & A Paper

Words! I just love this word "words". I love to see words next to each other. And what I love more is creating these words: holding an empty white paper and filling it with words, words that carry meanings, meanings that can change people's lives.

As a child, reading was my favorite activity. I dreamt that one day I would write a book that people would enjoy reading and it might even improve their lives. I wanted to imitate those people who helped in shaping my identity.

And I did imitate them.. I started writing when I was in preparatory school, but till today I can say that only two or three pieces of what I wrote are worth reading from my own point of view. Maybe because I started as an imitator that now I cannot create my own ideas?! It didn't seem to matter to me, as long as I write and create, as long as I put my ideas and the ideas of people smarter than me on paper .

But lately, it seems like my mind has gone blank. Every time I open my blog to write about a topic that had been occupying my mind, I don't find any words to express my thoughts; some other times I write a phrase or two then save the post as a draft. This made me really sad, because writing was one of the few hobbies I had.

Today, however, I decided to go back to the old writing methods; I decided to use my real pen, instead of the key-board, to fill an empty paper with words, even if they are meaningless, and it did work.

My dear blog, forgive me, but I love my notebook much more than you...

  2. Thank you =)
    And that's why I have another private blog, but it's the same too. I think I just love the feeling of holding a pen and writing, and maybe that's why I hate ebooks too!!
