My writing is my escape. I don't entirely understand my own emotions and identity, so I don't expect others to entirely understand them either. However through writing I can work towards explaining myself, to others, and most importantly to myself. Often people will jump to conclusions and often I find myself wishing they'd give each other a chance to explain themselves. Now I have made myself that chance by creating this blog in which I will simply post assorted pieces of my works of writing. Some will be creative, others autobiographical, some may even be prophetic, all with display assorted perspectives that I have experienced throughout my life. Some of these perspectives I have discarded for other ones, or changed to create a more open minded worldview. My hope with this blog is to slowly build myself an identity by the feelings I felt while writing the pieces, and hope to convey to the people I share them with.

Narrator


                  Sometimes I get so caught up in my own mind that I separate from reality.  I become a third party who doesn’t interact but simply observes.  Maybe that’s the writer in me, I become the narrator, and I make my life a simple story, telling the parts that are light and happy. That way I feel like I can control life, show the parts of the plot that are full of humor, action and romance. Life lessons are easier to take when they’re learnt by somebody else. I can feel the emotions by reading the story, but the pain isn’t as vivid and I can cut it off whenever I wish, simply by snapping the book shut. As long as I’m the narrator I’m safe.
