I like to write. Mainly because it has no end. Take books, sometimes I read just to finish the book and don't really enjoy what I am doing. The same could be said for tv or video games. I need to learn that I don't have to finish everything I start.* I never made a commitment to a book. I stated it because I enjoyed it. But when the enjoyment stops and it becomes more of a chore maybe I should stop. Relaxing should be relaxing. Do what you love with who you love. Relationships are awesome because they last a long time and only end when one dies. But our relationship with Christ will have no end and go on forever. Endings pretty much suck anyway. So do beginnings now that I think about it. I am just going to keep on writing and I will most likely have poor beginnings and some sort of ending.
Anyway if you are not having fun when you should be maybe you are doing the wrong thing. Also some things stink at the beginning and get better after some time or practice or after you learn all the rules or have a better understanding. I don't really know.
But I write for me because it is fun. Maybe I will write about something else if you give me a suggestion but only if I find it fun.
Sorry for the ramblings.
*Work and family and other responsibilities don't have to be fun and should still be completed to the best of one's ability with love.
It seems like "because it's fun" ought to be "because it makes me happy"
ReplyDeleteI would not say it makes me happy maybe a better option would be "Because it gives me fulfillment, or enjoyment, or maybe even worth." I think it more or less fulfills a need or longing. It allows me to be creative, and writing allows me to do so.
