Thankful For Being a Writer

Today is Thanksgiving in the USA.

I am one that do not celebrate Thanksgiving.  Americans spends over 100 dollars on one meal, Why?  Because society says we should.  Look how the turkeys are treated for this day, many say they don't even like turkey but it is, because that is what is expected of you.

Look at how well the thanksgiving meal worked out for the indians.

But everyday should be a day of thanksgiving.  GOD gave us this gift to write.  We can read, write and tell stories that help others.

GOD gave us this gift to write.  Even though no one really cares that I write, I know that my writing matters to this world. Famous painters never sold a painting, until after their death.  So as you are writing, you might never know the impact your writing has after your death. 

The movie It's a Wonderful Life did not do well at the box office and now it is a classic, so if you have doubts in your story, your story is orginal and no one can tell your story the way you can tell it.

I am still trying to write my Memoir and all I think is "This is so boring, no one will read it."  because my story is more internal conflict than exterior.  My eating disorder, cutting myself is all in my head and expressing it, I hear this voice screaming in my head.  "No one cares, it is boring."

So on this day that Americans stuff themselves with food for no other reason is because we can.  Thank GOD for your gift to write and thank GOD for being able to read, have access to the Internet and to self-publish.  This is your year, your time.  You are blessed so write today, because there is someone out there waiting to read your stor
