My 50th blog post and Quotes on writing

I had never thought I would be writing a blog on my own. I created this blog sorely out of  frustration. I needed an outlet for the emotions that were swirling inside me. Now, it is more of a personal diary. It helps me to put down my thoughts and let the world hear what I am thinking.

I would be lying if I don't admit that I have trouble writing on a few days. It is not the same as scribbling a few lines in your personal journal. Although it is a personal diary, I had taken the decision to make it public for anyone to read. I need to be a little conscious on what I write.

If someone had told me this is what I would do a couple of years back, I would have laughed at them. And here Iam, writing the 50th blog post ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ‡๐ŸŽˆ

A few quotes on writing that I was able to relate to (I don't know who these people are ๐Ÿ˜) -

⭐If I waited for perfection, I would never write a word  - Margaret Atwood

I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn - Anne Frank

⭐To write something you have to risk making a fool of yourself - Anne Rice

⭐Every writer I know has trouble writing - Joseph Heller

⭐Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else - Gloria Steinem

⭐You don't start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it's good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it. That's why I say one of the most valuable traits is persistence - Octavia E. Butler
