Lost Track

I don't remember when it happened, why it happened or how it happened.
But all I know is that I was how Zain R Mian* wrote:
I write for myself. It might not have been the way I’ve always written- I’m not going to lie about that. But that’s the way it is now and hopefully always will be. If writing still makes me happy then there’s really not much else that counts, to be honest.

But now it's changed. I check the statistics before I put up the next post.
I wait for the comments before I type the replies.

Yes, I love to write. I love how writing makes me feel.. lighter.
But I hate how I lost track of that.

As they say: I Write, Therefore I Am.

*Yes, Zain's a blogger too :)
I stumbled over his blog at:

"Yes, I love to write. I love how writing makes me feel.. lighter." Seconded. ^_^

Blogging can do that sometimes. We need to always remember why we're doing this in the first place.

You don't really have to post your writings on blogger. You can do it with time. But whenever you feel like writing, whenever something urges you to type/write your thoughts, just don't put it off and get to work. Write and save it for posting it up whenever you feel like it. But never ever repress the urge to write.

The thing is when writing comes with honesty, the time lapse between it doesn't matter because you have a wonderful piece written whole heatedly which is beautiful no matter what!

A desperate need of approval is what inflicts every blogger at some time or the other in their blogging life ( myself included ) by I am guessing it will pass. It must as writing always gets the priorities right.
