Clever Writing
If you've never visited Gapers Block, then I suggest you do. It's a web publication and lots of fun stuff to read.
The point of this post, however, isn't just with Gapers block. I just wanted to share with you my love of clever writing....Everywhere! I do love the english language. The writing and speaking of it. Ways in which a person may express themselves, it is in itself an art form. Of course there are the poems, the song lyrics, essays and compositions. Those are only the tip of the iceberg! There's so much to the english language, and I am always appalled at how a person uses the english language to express themselves. It's simply marvelous!
I can pick up a book or article and read it and be entranced in a person's writing. There are so many creative ways to write and many more to clearly express feelings, emotions and ideas across in words. Words and says can be used to hurt, to love, to feel, to express, to generate and facilitate activities. Indeed, I marvel at the prospect of how smoothly language makes our everyday lives so much more enjoyable!
One of my life's aspirations is to be a better writer. Practice makes perfect, hence my everday updates with writing in this blog. There are tons of great writers out there and I feel that if I don't try and perfect myself at it, I will quickly fall behind and will feel incompetent and will resent myself for it. It's not an easy task though. I don't know why it is that I find it hard to find words to clearly express my feelings and thoughts. Perhaps it's because everything I write in this blog are first drafts. That I would need to read over these first drafts and correct them and reread them again and using my ever-resourceful thesaurus. But, I wonder if I am missing something?! I feel as if I can never fully wrap up my topics and adequately explain what I first wanted to post about.
Is writing also a challenge for the thousands of blog writers out there? If you happen to be one of them, please post a comment and write to me. Share some suggestions at how I can be better at this. It would be so great!
Anyways, I am working on it. Hopefully, years from now, I can look at the writings I do nowadays and see that I have improved from elementary to something like professional writing. That's an ambition.
