#GiveItToGod #NoteToSelf
Hi. I’d like to reintroduce myself to my 11 followers as Rice :)
I don’t know what got into me. I haven’t written a piece in over 3 years. I was honestly never a writer. I was never a reader. I don’t think I ever ~loved~ writing as many authors and storytellers do on this app. I think, all I’ve ever wanted was to work really hard, and share a piece of my heart with the world. My work wasn’t as extraordinary as I thought at that time, so I gave up. The pains of not being close to exceptional, not only in story writing, but in so many aspects of my life came very visible to me. I was swallower up in a hole of thought, and never thought my work was good enough, anywhere. Honestly, writing on this tumblr blog was the least of my concern when my life started going downhill. I didn’t even think much of it, as I knew I wasn’t the best writer already. All my thoughts had forgetten the themes of things that I had written within a couple of days, and just like that, I hadn’t even actively done anything here in 3 years.
I know that not many people maybe reading this long, and maybe pointless paragraph. But i just wanted a little closer for my heart, and maybe to any one who cares. For the past the years, I’ve watched life go by. Crying and what I could’ve been. Telling myself that I can never do that. That I was so at a disadvantage. Telling myself that life was so unfair and cruel and I’d never be able to catch up. Yes, it was definitely all of those things. But truly, I just never gave myself a chance to shine.
Last night when I was bored, I read one of my old works. It was cringey for some of the parts, I was only 16 at the time. But when I read my work, my heart started pounding with excitement. I had completely forgotten all the themes, but my heart had wanted to continue anew so badly. The story had lots of tiny errors, but it was good. I don’t know what I ever doubted myself. For once in my life, I was able to look at something I had done and think that I was good. For once I was able to see myself in a different light, and I thought that I was my work was worth it. It wouldve been so much of a difference if I had kept writing, but for once I can look back and think that I wasn’t just a dumb airhead with dyslexia and ADD.
I know that this story was soo long. And dramatic. And that no one will probably read this(not even my 11 followers), but if anyone does. Please don’t doubt yourself ever. Please trust yourself and your capabilities. Ask for advice, from many, maanny people. About your work, your work ethic, anything and everything. Just keep going.
As for me, this might be a little closer for my little heart. But also a new beginning. I can’t wait to start writing again.
