Big Insight!

This morning I requested of the Universe the ability to read my own hand writing. Writing legibly has always been a problem but as I get older and my eyesight less sharp and my hands less skilled I thought it would be good to focus on my hand writing. I got out a set of pretty colored pens and went to work in my journal focusing on large clear letters. Half way through a page of the usual musings IT hit me: “I Need To Write For My Self!”  The words I put down are for me first of all. Ever since I first held that fat blue pencil in Mrs. Maples class I had been writing for someone else. Whether it is for my teachers my friends, the WordPress community or the cable guyI need to be able to read  and like what I write.

Wouldn’t it be revolutionary if children were taught to make lines and marks on paper that they like without a red pencil circling all the “mistakes?” Well that’s what I’m going to do for myself. If anyone reads this and wants to join me go “write” ahead.
