Where does this need to write come from?
I am not a writer.
I am an introvert. I spend a lot of time with my own thoughts. A L L the time!
And it seems that writing helps me to quiet down those voices in my head.
I have a Wordpress blog but somehow I don't feel the urge to write there.
It seems too noisy. Too flashy. Too much attention, even though nobody reads it.
So I haven't written on my blog for more than 6 months now.
But that itch to write something has been on the back of my mind for months.
Am I a writer?
Should I be a writer?
I think probably not.
But writing is a kind of therapy to me.
It gives order to chaos.
It silences the worry, the anxiety, the fear that haunts my thoughts. I never know if the thoughts create anxiety or anxiety that creates anxious thoughts. Are they the same?
Anyway, I just needed a blank empty space that welcomed me to write.
I think I found it here.
I am not afraid of being judged.
I feel free!
