Curiosity of the unknown,
fascination of what could be,
eyes of wonderment,
imagination without constraints,
inspiration to share ideas, experiences and dreams
These are some of the traits
that make a writer
continue to create with their words
Stay committed to your work
Stay disciplined to your craft
Stay true to your inner voice
Stay the course to your choice of words
If you are able to stay on that path
and not waver
then the life of a writer
is what you’re best suited for
Words infused with hope,
inspire the desolate
Words infused with serenity,
bring peace to the restless
Words infused with creativity,
spur imagination
Words infused with hilarity,
fill the air with laughter
Words infused with affirmation,
comforts the lonely and help them to connect
But the greatest words are
the words that are infused with love
because it brings joy and happiness to all
Selecting the right words
to convey your inner voice
can bring about endless hours
of hard decisions and intense scrutiny
But you need to go through that because
you have to become the writer
that is unique only to you
If you carry
deep gratitude in your heart,
the words that
come from it
carry it’s true weight in gold
We write to…
share love
We write to…
inspire hope
We write to…
educate minds
We write to…
spread laughter
We write to…
expand imagination
We write to live
so that we can see how
our words
can change the light
in our reader’s eyes
The color of a writer’s soul
should be one
that is burning bright red
It symbolizes
your intense passion
You swear loyalty to that,
you cherish it
and gain strength from it
and then live
without betraying that
That’s the writer’s codex
Writing will challenge you
physically, mentally, socially and emotionally,
but that’s a good thing
because without it
you won’t discover what you can truly do
I don’t fear failure,
I fear
that I didn’t give it my all
when faced with the obstacle
Don’t be too preoccupied
chasing your dreams
to stop and cherish
those around you
that allow you to do so.
