Journal #2 Be brave to be a writer!

The meanings of Didion and Ellis’s words are the same- we don’t think that our thoughts, life, even ourselves are as important as others, so we fear to exposure our feelings as a writer.

We write down something important to us, and just for us, not for somebody else. The boy next door who teasing you, the very first kiss, and even the small yellow flowers beside walkway. Maybe the trivia things did make any sense for others, but it all my unique memory and it all belong to me. I agree with what Vanessa said- writing is more powerful than speaking. It’s meaningful when you write down a little note and put it under the coffee cup than you just say “I love you” to your love. The meaning of writing not only to remember, to feel, but to express your truly mind.
