When you are on your chosen path
there is little that can be done to get you off track. And you know when you
are doing what you are ‘called’ to do; it courses through your veins like
life’s blood. You eat, sleep and play your passion. You can bring everything
back to what you love, no matter the topic. It can get so annoying to your
family and friends, but it becomes a game to you – ‘Let me see how long it
takes for me to divert this topic to my passion.’
Well, my passion is writing. I
love it. I express myself best with words. I can woo a lover with words, just
as easily as I can order off the breakfast menu, at McDonald’s. Not that I
treat relationships so callously, it was merely an analogy. I have been writing
since I can remember. I began to pen my life story before I reached age ten. I
still have it and it has been over thirty years ago (I know, a woman should
never tell her age). Writing is therapeutic. Writing is entertaining. Writing
is meditative. Writing becomes my prayers. Writing is me.
I’ve got the words in me. It
doesn’t matter the situation or the topic, I can write about it. Not many
people get that, but other writers do. They understand word play and how they
run through the mind and how quickly a story can emerge. Writers write and we
use words to express what lies deep within us. Our stories are our children. We
conceive them in our hearts and minds; and they are birthed onto the screen or
piece of paper. Words fuel the flame of our passion for writing.
Say it loud, “I’ve got the words
in me!” Now get writing!
