I´m in deep thinking, and I guess that is a bit of my writing process as well as my living process. When I started to write I was affecting it. The way I was, my experiences, my thoughts and feelings were all expressed in my writing somehow. As a teenager I did what most teenagers do – I wrote poems. But now I´m thinking that my writing has gotten its own life, and that it affects me. I´m just not sure I´m happy anymore, with the way it affects me.
I will do an experiment starting tomorrow – I will just write happy pieces to see if that makes me happier. The experiment will last for about a month before I check how it´s going. Then I will see how to continue. It´s not a promise, just an idea. Let´s see what happens!

Good luck with your experiment Maggie ^_^.
I do hope you will get out of it what you wish for.

I have found that it’s much easier to stay happy with my writing and my progress when I check out other people’s writing, and remember to give what I can to others of my time and my knowledge. So that if you find yourself discontent with yourself, one of the best rules to remember is to get out of yourself, any self-absorption you feel, and the lack of connectedness and isolation that goes with writing writing writing and not coming up for air. 🙂

You´re right, but in the same time.. .so easy to say. Things has been going on in my life, things far out of my control. I have been falling from the skies, right through the asphalt. It was hard, and I hurt.
I need to fix that now. Yes, you are so right – a great thing to remember is to leave my own head, at least for a while. I can stay in my body… It´s good to do things for others, and to forget about yourself for some time. Ego. Doing things for others make me happy 🙂 But as it is now, I will have to work for it… it will not come to me for free I guess.
I´ll see you the day after tomorrow, at your place. You blog 🙂
Thanks for your wisdom and encouragement!
Maggie
