snippets 127


I am scared that I am not writing beautifully.

I was reading some blogs last night (November 1, 2011). I wanted to read the blog of the girl who wrote “Date a girl who reads”. It was Rosemarie Urquico. In search of said blog entry I came across multiple different entries of “Date a girl who writes”. I read a handful of them. And although, their contents were right, I have to say they weren’t written beautifully. The words were right but they weren’t put together lovingly. And they were supposed to be written by girls who write.

As I was reading them, I thought I should write my version of that. But I am scared I won’t be able to rise up to the challenge. I mean, you’re convincing the world to date a girl who writes here. There’s no way you could convince the world of that thought if your entry won’t be written beautifully. There’s no way the world would be move if it would be a litany of things, of blabbed words that tried to be coherent thoughts. One should write about the quirks of girl writers that infuriates and at the same time endears them to the world or to just one person.

I hate settling. I would really hate to know that I don't write beautifully. I would really hate to know that I have settled with just writing. I want to write beautifully. And it scares me that I don't.
