oh hey folks fun update, i found my passion again? i just had to find my right outlet, get to a place where I have aspirations, dispel apathy and pursue what I love, it’s all good and swell!

reblog this to find the right outlet, get to a place where you have aspirations, dispel apathy and pursue what you love, and rediscover your passion.

purplebuddhaquotes:

“If you look back only at your mistakes, you’d think you were an idiot. If you look back only at your wiser choices, you’d think you were infallible. But if you look back on everything, you realize you’re a human being who has been through a lot, grown a lot, is always still learning, and improving as time goes by.”

here is your gentle reminder that there are dandelions growing through cracks in the sidewalk. there is a fence lizard on the porch who is growing a new tail. there are trees growing through an abandoned house, branches tearing through the ceiling, ferns carpeting the floor. there is life pushing forward, pushing through. 

Writing will always be hard.

I can’t write. 

I can write, but only boring stuff.

I can’t write.

I can write, but not like my writer friends. 

I can’t write.

I can write, but it just doesn’t feel good enough.

I can’t write.

I can write, but only about the same pairing over and over again. 

I can’t write.

I can write, but I use the same words all the time cause the synonyms sound funny. 

I can’t write.

I can write, but it’s not long enough to be a real story.

I can’t write.

I can write, but only the same stories, over and over again. 

I can’t write. 

I can write, but not every day, not 10.000 words at a time.

I can’t write.

I can write, just not the popular stuff.

I can’t write.

I can write, just not stories that turn into fandom classics.

I can’t write.

Should I stop?

Am I a writer?

Or just a person that likes to write?

Does it really matter in the end?

when the story is just not working, but you keep writing anyway

Reminder that she actually wins that season, so keep your head up.

Reminder that she constantly had trouble believing that she deserved to be there and her first few could best be described as ‘not the worst’.

And she won. She stayed positive, cried when she needed to, and kept going.

Once more:

  1. Stay positive
  2. Cry when you need to
  3. Keep going

Hey Neil, so I’m 16 and highly terrified that I will never accomplish my dream of becoming a writer (especially because everyone around me seems to be doing things that are more practical.) Advice?

neil-gaiman:

Well, somebody has to accomplish your dream of becoming a writer.

And it might as well be you.

Now, read everything you can. Write a lot. (You’re 16. You don’t have to finish everything you start. Just write.) Get all the living in you need. Meet all the people you can. (Life is useful for plots. People are useful for characters.) And have fun with it.
