Writing is a beautiful thing, we think or make images in our minds and describe them on paper. From cave men writing cave paintings to programmers writing code to make programs, it was all in our mind, our thoughts and hopes we can make them real by writing them down. We are more likely to accomplish and achieve our goals if we write them down and we will remember them more even if we speak it out loud.
Writing for our dreams is a beautiful thing, it is an outlet for our passion, instead of just wondering and day dreaming we convert our dreams to a tangible thing we can see and hold, we can copy the moment of inspiration and have it preserved for ourselves to look back and reflect on.
Writing keeps me organized and motivated, I use to write essays in college, then I started writing prayers, psalms, and chants. Then I moved on to writing bars and verses for my hip hop songs. Now I am writing for pure joy and fun. To get the experience of doing what I love to do to make a living and live the way I want.
I held down many jobs and was always working hard for my money and my life came to a halt with an injury getting ready for some hard labor. Always about making money and never took the time to think about what I would like to do in life. That’s the key to being happy, do things that make you happy and make a living out of it.
I never knew what makes me happy till I started writing in college and taking English courses, reading books and writing about them, even research science papers where fun, I just loved to write.
I love to read as well, sometimes I get lost in novels and it is like my mind paints the picture as I read the words from a novel. I forget where I am and I am transported to the places the author is describing, I get lost in the dialogue thinking about the characters, and when I am done reading I must get my mind back into reality. That is the power and effect of good writing; it is like a movie being played in our minds and an experience; a journey takes place when we read good writing that stirs up all those emotions and leaves our breath taken away.
It is my hope that I can learn to write about anything and everything, to be the best I can at making my dreams and clients dreams come to reality with great content that serves their purpose. I have spent a lot of years thinking of ideas to improve my life and writing is probably the one that gives me a lot of satisfaction along with tai chi and yoga.
Writing has become a therapeutic exercise for my mind, body, and soul. It is a feeling of accomplishment. Now I am in the process of looking for my first paid writing assignment and I know the day will come where I can break the ice of landing my first gig. I am dedicating hours a day to this endeavor; I certainly have the time and anytime I am having a burst of passion about a topic I write about it.
I hope this helps some aspiring writers to appreciate what they do and to take the time to enjoy writing, and what it has done for us, and what it will do for us in the future.
