Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behaviors. Keep your behaviors positive because your behaviors become your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.
~ Gandhi
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.

Writing things exactly as they are is never an easy thing to do. If you feel about something and the emotional turmoil is raw and goes down to the deepest end of your soul, are you able to put it into words? Or are you grasping at straws in order to interpret those feelings precisely as they are?
A lot of people find emotional release through writing poetry. It's easier, and while words flow, there's still a part of them hidden between those lines; you never get to find out the entire truth. Their words don't bleed out all their emotional distress, only what they feel like sharing. You may be able to glimpse into the depths of their soul, but you get to see some shards of their broken soul.
The above mentioned quote by Dalai Lama suits me to a tee. While others have a strong belief in something, my belief is... a bit askew to say the least. Life's experiences have a lot to do with such things - at least in my case they do. While reading and writing, I found that I prefer the poetry of a tortured soul, over happy poetry, but I love happy endings in a story rather than a sad one. However, life differs from our writing.
What are your life's experiences and how have they changed or affected your writing?
While most of us go with the flow - accepting the changes in our life and learning from them - not everyone does. Change, especially negative change can wear one out and make them rather depressed for longer periods of time. Certain things we never get over, we just learn to live with them until they slowly start deteriorating on their own. Lost love, family and friends passing's, it's all part of life. All that does affect us in different ways and there's no other way than to learn from it.
Have you?
'til next time!
