WRITING IS CLOSER TO THINKING THAN SPEAKING

19/03/2017

 

Time for crispy forest fruit truffles (not that there’s any left at this moment…)! No, seriously, about writing – do you sometimes feel it’s easier to write than to speak? I’ve always been like that, words can stop before they come out. I can think one thing, and suddenly when I try to say it out loud, it turns into something different. Not for me, but for the listener, who could be anyone I talk to really. And I guess it’s not just the listener who is a bad listener, but I can be a bad teller.

I’m not that good with words, I don’t trust I will be understood, and that alone can stop them before they get the chance to be spoken. Other times I have way too many words that probably shouldn’t been spoken… Anyone recognize this dilemma?

So when it stops I write it down, sometimes. And one day when I feel ready I will probably begin to write more. I know the theme and I know the title and subtitle. It’s not a romantic one, that I can tell you! 😉 And I can also tell you that we are really close to put up the wallpaper and do some painting in the outhouse, I can’t wait! It has just taken one and a half year more than we thought!

      Hi Rebecca, thanks for your comment! I guess there’s many of us struggling with this, and I guess the main thing is maybe to learn how to accept it, what do you think? Have a nice Monday 🙂

ABOUT ME

I do and share things by heart. I create personal texts, am a musician, sell original art and prints, make a special home and capture the magic with my camera – everything rather dark hued. Villa Betula is not just skimming the tops.

And by the way - my name is Maren Ingeborg Gråblomst and I’m Norwegian. Gråblomst means grey flower.
