What to write about, what can I share, something about me or just a general topic? Either way I reveal a bit of me every time , yes? Do I really want to share anymore of me than I already have?

I am shy sometimes and fear discrimination. I have so much to share but so many fears arise at once that it creates what we call “writer’s block” . “Will you still love me tomorrow?“, is the name of an old song but is a question I ask myself every time the thought of posting an article enters my mind. Well what do they want to know , what will initiate an intelligent discussion? Will I lose friends or gain new ones? Should I care? Well of course I care or I would not ponder such questions.

Those are the reasons I don’t post articles . So I read and post my favorite news links. Yea, I know, its like I am hiding but I don’t want to hide anymore . I want to feel free to be me and share myself with thee.

I am writing this to gather the courage to really be able to open up. Where my fears are coming from is beyond me.

I love people, I love life and all that it entails, even the negative aspects that I confront everyday. I am strong in so many ways and have been through so much in life. Writing is one of my favorite things to do and its more than just something we do its something we feel.

When I write and share I anticipate the reader’s response and I believe its that which makes me withdraw. Perhaps you have not noticed that its been a long time since I have submitted an article. You know I actually crave writing and yet it seems to be the hardest thing for me to do. So I “free write” as I did with this because I just lay it out on the table and go for it . I didn’t expect to even get this much out . But I do feel better for it. Ok so from this day forward I will sit and think of topics to share and without all the back and forth; to post or not to , just do it, right?
