Making Time for Stories in the Dark

You don’t need to be validated to want to make time for your passion. To be a published author to dedicate yourself to your writing. To be a recognised painter to find half an hour every week to paint without judging your colours.

To find time for what makes your heart sing, forget what others feel is valid, just listen to the song coming from within, and make time for the music notes.

I may not be traditionally published yet, but I am very good at being creative. Rain or Shine, in happiness or in sickness, in abundance or depletion. I can create through too much inspiration or when I’m at the bottom of the well looking up, when it’s so dark all I can feel is the walls around me. 

I’ll hold myself up on the walls and tell stories to the darkness. Incoherent, bleak stories as they may be.

Don’t worry about the quality, as long as there is creativity and there is passion in the creation, that is all that matters.
