Writing: Contemplative Thoughts

We were all meant to soar.

I suppose much in life can be compared to the tiny caterpillar that must struggle and shed his cocoon. It feels warm and safe inside it, but unless he really takes the time to stretch and break his bondage, he will never learn to fly. This can be painful, and feel impossible, but he continues to push, he continues to ache because he knows his wings were meant to soar.

I know this is something I must do, but I also know that I watch everything. And, I know there’s a reason why I haven’t broken my cocoon yet; at least in the writing arena; at least in the manner I feel is burning inside my heart.

Or perhaps, maybe this forum for writing (Triond) is what I need right now. Ironically, we are all actually where we want to be in life at any given moment. I believe this wholeheartedly.

J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter author), said that at one moment the right story just popped in her mind and she knew. Without a doubt she knew.

To all the writers “out there”, you can soar higher, further, faster, greater than any person has ever said you could. Your talents are limitless. Your fears are nonexistent when you take a breath and really see the world. Let yourself be everything you know is shining, yearning for in your hearts. We can all lift this world to a better place.

Best wishes to all.
