Words are an extension of a writer’s true soul.
Mark’s Writing Motto #21
To Be A Writer
Embarking On A Journey
Before you embark
on your journey
as a writer…
ask yourself,
Is this what I’m supposed to do?
Is this what I want to do?
Or…
Is this what I was meant to do?
Knowing the context
of your reason
determines your path
of the writer you’ll be
Once you truly understand
the right words
as it pertains to you,
then…
your journey may begin
Our True Human Nature
With renewed eyes,
I venture out into
this changed world that’s
filled with unlimited chaos
and relentless despair
in hopes of finding
some semblance
of humanity
In my heart of hearts,
I know that each one of us
possess the
goodness, compassion,
kindness, generosity,
bravery and love
needed to bring forth
positivity into this world
If we can each
unselfishly share
a piece of that
then the world will be able
to realign itself
and we will be able to
shift focus
onto what the true nature is
in being a human
Mark’s Writing Motto #20
As a writer, the best investment you’ll ever make is in your choice of words.
Mark’s Writing Motto #19
As a writer, your singular goal is to let your inner voice be heard.
What To Strive For
As a writer, don’t aspire to make your words great…aspire to make them legendary.
A Writer’s Gift
As a writer,
your words can give hope
to those lost in this world
It can spark
a ray of light
in pitch darkness
and
lead them into
an enlightened life
of
endless inspiration
Mark’s Writing Motto #18
To be a great writer, you just need to do the ordinary things better than anyone else.
No Boundaries
Creativity knows no bounds
So pour your mind, body and soul
into your words
Show courage by sharing them
and open the hearts
of the people in this world.
When Words Don’t Come Easy
When the well runs dry
and words don’t flow freely,
take a step back…
pause…
reflect…
on all your past work,
relish in the creativity
you created from nothing
and take pride
in knowing you did something
that was brought forth from
your heart,
your soul,
your inner voice
What was once there
is never gone
It just needs time to
rest and recharge
When all is said and done,
you’ll be back
to reinvent yourself
with eloquent words
that will convey your passion
to the world.
