Often life teaches us lessons that we do not wanted to think about. We cannot get anything done until we sit down and actually do it. Just as I was watching my little brother study for his exams after putting it down till last minute, but I learned that only we can accomplish our goals and only when we actually believe in ourselves.. No one else can make that happen. Just as with me, I had been putting off writing for so long that I had started to say things I wanted to write while sitting in the bathroom or laying down to sleep. The lesson that my little brother taught me is that if I believe in myself, and sit down to actually do it, no one but me can stop that from happening. As I am writing this down, I feel the spark shine again and I do not want to let it die again until I am inspired again, because life gives you hints and lessons for so long only, and if you still keep on rejecting it then it might never occur. So it’s better to start now than never.. I hope one day I will be able to accomplish what my father used to say about me, that I can write anything I want just as I read anything from billboards, to boring news stories and everything in between.
Until then, I leave you with this lesson that I was taught at 3.45am about life, that it never fails to inspire you or life can give you chance at any time of day, any time of the year.. So from now on, I will try to do what I feel like and never wait for the right time.. By which I mean that I used to hold off my thoughts until the next day because I was in bed and then poof goes the thought the next day and again blankly stare at a screen ready for me to write.
