What makes us write? If given a chance, would I write and rewrite these sentences so many times? Would I still write the same lines had I known that people I know might not be reading them? What makes us more drawn to anonymous writers? Is it the writing or the author themselves?
I stopped writing and it didn't happen in the blink of an eye but somehow it felt natural. Had I written a note to my future self 10 years ago, I would have definitely assumed that the future version of me would be still typing incessantly or spending pages in a book to put down my racing thoughts. Now that they have stopped altogether, I took a quick check - what changed? Is it me or my thinking? Probably both - but I'll never know (coz I didn't write them down).
So here is a pledge (too late for resolutions?)
I will write every feeling of mine irrespective of them being boring, repetitive or just not-so-amusing. This is my LIFE TRACKER! I want everyone that I love (myself being at the top of the list) to know what's happening to me and how these things are shaping me! Probably Dhatri will know me better because of these someday (when she no longer needs her mom for waking her up, getting her bathed, forcing her to maintain a straight face in online classes or doing her homework)
What's your 'Life tracker'? Are you still logging in?
