“In order to write about life first you must live it.”– Ernest Hemingway
Wise words from a wise author. Someone that just got ‘life.’ I’ve had to get life, it’s not something that has come easy, it’s something that I’ve had to painfully work through.
By the nature of breathing, we’re living. But until you have worked out and understand life in the whole, you can’t really know about life. When we understand, we can change certain aspects of our life, enough to live a different kind of life.
I’ve had to weather many storms. I write about my traumatic life. It is important to put the right slant on your life, not the way you would like to see it, but the way in which it happened. What I write is painful, but it has been necessary.
My writing has been an open door. We live our lives without thinking what our lives mean. We get up, we get washed, we work and earn money, we socialise, but we don’t stop to think about what that all means in the whole. We don’t always get the best out of life and that is two-fold.
It starts with parenting and in a world that is governed by politicians making rules, they need to make the right rules. And while the government continue to deny the virus still exists, I continue to struggle through decisions that are keeping me stuck at ‘home’ in the pandemic.
From an early life I was always looking at the whole, while I was looking inwards at my own life. I’ve never thought differently. A deep thinker from an early age I was always in reflection.
It’s been a difficult life, one that I know I have bravely born, but it doesn’t feel that way. I have struggled at life. As I continue to write, I continue to reconcile. I’m not sure I ever will, but I shall continue to write, so that through hope I am able to live the best that I can.
