Owning Your Truth

When you write something down, you own it. You give it life. It exists. Resides in the real world, no longer the imaginary. Moments come at you and you need to have your net ready to capture them. Your mind free to sense them. Your heart open to feel them. Your hands steady to grasp them before they slip away.

Me, I always keep a pen and paper handy, usually a little travel notebook. It’s with me until I completely fill every page and then I start fresh with a new one. I’m sure there’s a metaphor somewhere in there, but for now I’m content with just writing all my crazy thoughts down. Deeper insights can come later.
