For this heart is longing for thy love;
Restless-
Despair-
In pain-
Oh how long shall i suffer?
That time won’t halt;
And love is absolute;
For it is a torture to my soul;
How long shall I suffer?
EL

Anxiety
Constant worries.
Constant fears.
Always wondering if I’ll ever be good enough.
Constant tears flowing down my face
I don’t know just how to stop this feeling of disgrace.
Fear of rejection, fear of crowds.
Fear of speaking, of reaching out.
Fear of using my voice to speak.
So, I stay in the shadows, hiding.
Waiting for things to get better
Waiting for the sun to shine down where I linger.
Constantly needing approval. Constant nerves.
A severe, overwhelming urge to scream.
To fight the demons that hide inside my mind.
To fight the demons, that nobody else can see.

When I look upon life and how far I have come, I realise that I am so different from who I was years back that if I were to speak to my old self I wouldn't recognize me.

To write you must also read
i recently started reading a book about creative writing (which i will likely consume very slowly, since my access to it is digital & limited), but one of the main points of the first chapter was worth sharing:
to become better at writing you must also read.
i've been thinking about it a lot over the past week. the book suggests reading indiscriminately and heavily, which is well and good advice, but did not offer much beyond that. so here are my personal takes/elaborations:
read in a genre you want to write & pay attention to details like how the author world-builds, how they set scenes, or whether the story is character-driven vs event driven from your perspective
if there's something you want to improve in your writing, pay attention to how your favorite authors establish that. authorS plural, try to get more than one perspective
read some nonfiction. not your style/don't know where to start? find something niche and weird. my personal rec at this exact moment is one of Caitlin Doughty's books; alternatively pick one about a social issue you really care about or want to learn more about
read something you don't like every once and awhile. yeah. do it
re-read something you really liked when you were younger with a critical eye. (you can still like it)
read some poetry (unfortunately i don't have recs for this one, but if you do feel free to add)
read some fucked up short stories and then try writing your own shortened narratives. "The Ones Who Walked Away From Omelas" by Ursula K. Le Guin is p haunting. (disclaimer the short stories do not have to be fucked up)
feel free to add your own points, but the gist is to read with an eye for what you want to improve in your own writing, or to read with a mind for trying new things and getting new perspectives for what can be done with writing.

#366 Photo 1 Enjoying the late evening sun - it’s low in the sky so I need to wear a hat! Sitting out in our front garden, beside the Grand Union canal, reading. 2. And tucking in to:- warm from the oven, Homemade (gluten free) bread, butter, cinnamon and sultana pudding, served on a yellow rimmed dish, accompanied with custard and a dollop of clotted cream, with a generous pinch of sunshine and happiness for the more simple things. 3. Floss ambled out to join me in the front garden - her black ears twitching back and forth as she listened to the wood pigeons flapping about in the huge Alder tree on the towpath opposite, the evening was sprinkled with the chatter and laughter of the voices of walkers, runners, cyclists and strollers along the towpath and drifting towards us along the canal from some of the gardens nearby. It’s a forever changing scene, always something different to see as the world on trundles by. Photo 4 A walk in the woods We wander though these gentle fronds of cool green ferns, wafting in the slightest breeze. Tall trees with stout thick trunks and rich green leaves, have stood here for hundreds of years; Reaching, stretching up, up, high into the sky. And always the constant chit and chatter of forest sounds, harp harp of the fox, rustling leaves, snapping of twigs, the song of birds and the buzzing of bees. This cool green natural spa and sanctuary; Always welcoming, calming, Uplifting, refreshing, Abundant, inspiring, And.... forever cool. 🙏🏽 #Londonphotographer #headshotsLondon #productphotograoher #specialistbrandphotographer #businessbrandphotographer #hertfordshirephotographer #brandphotographer #businessphotographer #marketingphotographer #advertisingphotographer #woodlandwalks #descriptive #descriptivewriting #tryingtowrite #iwrotewhatifelt #iwrotesomewordstoday #omgiwrotesomething (at Grand Union Canal - Uxbridge to Watford) https://www.instagram.com/p/CChKpMYh8LV/?igshid=pd3rvnfokouh
