The Heart of a Writer
A writer at heart. Words are expressions of emotions and the writer feels these words which are inherent deep within his or her spirit. Passion are these words which cannot be denied and must be expressed, shared and proclaimed in creative fashion. The writer is sensitive, intuitive and feels from the depth of heart. Authentic self is understood and firmly though happily embraced by the writer therefore it is with knowing and believing the writer paints words upon a barren canvas and a new life born.
Memories and dreams parade the mind of the writer as streaming videos. These visual aspects breathe life into a writer’s heart and have no choice but to be reborn through the creative process we call writing.
The writer’s heart is unknown to us if not for their words. Their writing is a mirror to their soul and an understanding of where they have been as the words flow freely without interruption falling on paper with stanzaic precision.
If you want a glimpse into the heart of a writer, read his or her words.
Emotions are like vibrations rattling to the surface and most any healthy minded human being can shake them out on a loose leaf. Lets talk about the experiences of a writer, the transformation of a writer, breathing life into the lifeless, sketching singulars from broken chaos, and gutters and toils and anguish and demented hatred and all the other vacoriously impetuous symptoms that incourage the art.
The heart and experience are an interplay of light and leaves, one made more brilliant by the other. The heart is irrational and legless passion without lessons for judgement. The heart is a centipede with a hundred brittle legs scratching on an endless page trying to find its way, yet having no place to go.
Heart and passion adrift in the sea.
That is the most important lesson in writing, learning about ourselves. Thanks for the comments.
