These are lines that stuck out to me when reading a book called Wild Mind, Living the writers life. By, Natalie Goldberg. (Part 3)
- No one can knock u over, this is true confidence. Even if someone criticizes ur work, u can go home with a trust in ur experience & ur mind. U can begin again & again, with the simple act of keeping ur hand moving, & practice will bleed into all the other writing u are doing. (This is strength.)
- I broke his heart, I did not mean to. It was years & years ago, his loving was sweet, tender & simple. I didn't believe in love then. (Awwww I just thought about the first loves of my life.)
- Over & over, we have to go back 2 the beginning. We should not be ashamed of this. It is good we don't finish one poem or novel & never have 2 write again. Over & over we begin. ( I've been working on a project since 2002.)
- I know a certain thing, I'll tell u about it. Beyond that I am of no use, I can't help. All those hours of our life are our own. We have to figure out what to with them, but having our feet on the ground is a good beginning. (This is what I think of therapist.)
