Let go. Let love come.

Sometimes you just cannot let go of things when you’re damn sure it is best for you to let go. You’re afraid, you pamper yourself and say, let me hang on…you float… things do sail..sail waywardly… then, one fine day, bang comes life, pouncing on you, FORCING you to let go. When such a thing happens, sometimes you …have to let go of even your hand (that held for so long).

let it go – the
smashed word broken
open vow or
the oath cracked length
wise – let it go it
was sworn to
go

let them go – the
truthful liars and
the false fair friends
and the boths and
neithers – you must let them go they
were born
to go

It’s Friday!

Fridays bring with them a lot of hope for fun and travel. Weekend to me means rest and fun. Every Friday, I plan to post some quotes and pictures I find on the net. This week’s theme is love and forgiveness. Why not learn to forgive others a little?

I love weekends because I get time to  be with myself. This weekend, I have loads of plans – reading, traveling and of course, writing.  Writing is high on my radar and I have more than three blogs to update. The other things include shopping and traveling to some nearby picnic spots. Hope you too have a lot of plans. Have fun and celebrate life. Happy weekend!

Writing in the Mind vs. Writing without the Mind

I’m an advocate of writing in the mind. I have always written every sentence in my mind before I put things on paper. There has not been a moment when my mind has not involved in the writing process. I write, edit, re-write, re-edit words in my mind before I look to type it out on paper.

But things are changing. I don’t write in my mind anymore. I do everything on paper. Words come straight to paper, without any editorial scrutiny by the mind. It works almost like automatic writing. I start typing out on a clean white word document without any preparation. No lengthy meditations or speculations. With keys under my fingers, I JUST write. This habit has made me a great writing machine. I know that what I have written needs a lot of editing, but that can be done later. Your inner critic should never put a stop to your writing flow. Never.
