WRITING _ THE MEDICINE THAT SOOTHES MY HEART
Ever imagined "writing" a few years ago? No!!! I have hated to write, right from my high school days. Just allow me to express myself orally and I will be okay. At times, I imagine how some writers come up with thousands of interesting words I read both online and offline and I will be startled. I do tell myself that this isn't my calling 🤩. I feared writing, I thought the best form of expression was only orally not until last year, when I had an encounter with an enthusiastic writer, oh!! There was a shift in my philosophy and I fell in love with writing.
My life as a writer/blogger
Ever since a new me emerged as a writer, I have come to see writing as my best form of self-expression. The way I write naturally without being forced or struggling with it still bewilders me. Does that mean I have overcome my fear of writing? Just maybe, hahaha. This day, I found myself practically writing down my daily activities in the Diary and tracking my progress. Recently I have communicated with my relatives on sensitive matters through detailed writing which allowed me to express myself and be fulfilled. Ordinarily, I may have shied away with some things I penned down but I was able to write down all my feelings about the issue and my message was well received and worked on.
Writing has given me an inward satisfaction so far. I have come to embrace writing as a passion and a hobby.
Do you know that ever since I started writing, I am becoming more conscious of how I live my life? This is because I make every effort to practice what I write or suggest in a comment.
I have also come to realize that we consume content in our daily activities and I am becoming more alert to my environment. I always want to express myself through writing always to share my experience with people and hopefully they can pick one or two words from me that will assist them in their life journey. This is how important writing is to me, extending a piece of helpful tips to people across the globe.
In summary, writing on this hive blockchain has been one of the amazing things that have happened to me. This platform unraveled a lot that was embedded in me. Writing is truly the medicine that soothes my heart.
This post is in response to the @hivelearners community contest titled Being a Writer
Thanks for reading !!!
This is the perfect description of writing.
We become conscious of what we do through writing because we wouldn't want to do something against what we send across to people through writing. Beautifully written ma.
This is a pure revelation I got since I began writing ✏️
Wow, thanks a bunch busayo🥰🥰🤗🤗🥳
You are always welcome 😊
The word passion from your post explained writing.
Wow, thanks s bunch👍
Your welcome dear
All This while you had it in you without knowing, very glad you discover it and also embraced it with love and passion.
Thanks for sharing 💕
Betty dear....I never knew I had this tiny skill of writing 🤦🤦🤦🤩
Don't mind my laziness..hahaha
Thanks for your sweet visit 🥳
You welcome 🤗
In some way, we relate in our experience of writing. I did not just hate writing, I hated English language and any other language that existed. I was only great at numbers.
Now I somewhat found myself doing things I hated, which later turned out to be a life-changer.
I totally agree to this! It's the same thing about me. I am more alert and attentive to my surroundings and everyone around me trying to pick a lesson from my life..
Same here, give me Maths, physics, or chemistry to solve with formulas rather than asking me to read the novel and summarize my writing 🤩
Such is life, change is indeed constant but glad we are changing for good.
Exactly my dear and I am loving the results.
Thank you so much for your contribution to my post, I value it a lot👍💪
The pleasure is mine!
For me I loved essays back then in high school but I completely and utterly hated Oral English. I can't stand it and just couldn't understand it.
Yeah, it happens to me too. I do research before writing, hence, I gain good knowledge and I try to apply it to my life as well as write it.
I have been writing for awhile here and I have written over 3000 words in some articles, hence, I'm already used to it(weird for an accountant) but I prefer vlog but I haven't found a community yet. If I could sing I would have been singing already, I have a terrible voice 😂 and I know.
I enjoyed reading through your article @nkemakonam89
Wowwwwww
Weird for an accountant , 🤣🤣🤣🤣 , this got me laughing out loud..hahaha
.
You are doing well bro..apart from singing , you can still vblog on educating people on any nice topic I think. Just calm down and check out community that soothes what you have in mind .
Thanks a bunch for ur visit👍
Hahahaha, why did it make you laugh out loud?
Yeah, I have been searching but haven't seen. But I will continue to check.
I had the same feeling about writing back in highschool 😂. Happy you had that encounter with the writer.
Thank you for sharing.
Yesooo, the encounter has changed my for good 🤩
Thanks a bunch!
Your always welcome @nkemakonam89.
"Writing gives me an inward satisfaction" so true and I would call it my freedom. Good one dear❤.
It's a freedom to express your self without limitation ..

It’s great that you have not only overcome your fear of writing but now you enjoy to write…and you are a great writer might I add. 😉
I hope you continue to enjoy expressing yourself through writing. It is such an educative and relaxing experience all at once. One would be surprised how much they can learn about themselves through writing ~
Awwwwwnnn, thanks a bunch ma for this compliment. However, I am still learning how to write better 🤩🤩
This is so true ma. I have tested and seen. What I have learned so far through writing cannot be measured!

Thank you for sharing dear.
This is do true and you will get to read your article even in the future
Lol 😆 🤣 I'm glad that you has been transformed 🙃
Thanks dear.
Yes, I love writing as well! It takes some effort to start, but when I sit in front of the keyboard and let my thoughts flow, it's hard to stop. For me, it is therapeutic and helps me to think deeply about what I am writing.
Thanks for sharing, @nkemakonam89!
!LOH
Wow, writing is therapeutic indeed.
I appreciate your warm visit , thanks😇
The liberation writing brings to one really is immeasurable. I can only wonder how my like would have been/continued if I had not started writing.
I know, right? I think most people start that way. I used to think writing was like a super power. But here we all are, masters of writing in our own unique ways. (Please, I cannot be waiting for one master's degree to call myself a write.)
This hit me!
Like, yeahh!
You think more and efficiently by writing. And that in turn expands your awareness to your environment.
Hive has been one of the best things to happen to me.
This is it and guess what? I love this revelation about me via writing 📝
Wow, what a comment...thank you so much for your great contribution to my post, I cherish every word on the line. Much appreciated for your warm visit🥰💪👍
I'll hold on to it, because every writer needs that revelation.
A warm did I receive as well. 💆
