Gary_R's Life List:
| Will need to get this off an exeternal harddrive and copy and paste it in (14 pages) |
| Fix/Handle the Narcolepsy and ALL of its disabling attributes. |
| To begin dating again, and find the woman who is worthy of my love as I am worthy of her's. To feel what only our souls can touch, and to know each other before we meet. But meeting with our eyes wide open. So when there is nothing left between us, nothing will ever come between us. |
comments
says: Gary: I have both wrote through, and wrote up my pain I have been able to use writing as a release I have also used writing to amplify my pain I have found consolation, desolation, denigration Profound moments of interconnectivety, and self-awareness I am still finding out who I AM, and Who am I I am not scared anymore, I am responsible for my life!
says: I can't help but put a little bit of me into everything I write. Each character has a piece of my personality, beliefs or experiences. Perhaps its my sort of therapy... lol I also do a lot of journaling. Anytime I am upset by something, I find that writing it out helps me deal with it better. Besides, I can say all the mean things I wanted to but didn't. ;P
says: I have on a couple occasions when I have been in physical pain and wondering if it will ever stop, I have written about what that pain is a lack of, and written about how beautiful it would be.
says:
YES, I have written plays, poems, songs and mashed my journals into an autobiography of my ever so "painful" life. Some of these stories have delighted other people and that makes me so content with being in pain and writing about it.
These days, anytime I feel in pain, and I write about it, I read it weeks later and confess to myself that I still have a sense of humor and that I'm funny. Sometimes I read what I write and I wonder if I am the one writing these thoughts.
Pain is awfully inspiring, eh?
says: "It does help, although, not very much lately." Physical pain, it is amazing the stuff I can write (I get chills in a good way reading it later). Depression... I tap anger, depression in a clinical sense is defined as time for a change, I tap the anger, I define what I can no longer tolerate in my life. And what it usually does is create the space for what I do want to come in (I'll be writing a post on that).
says: Yes, I have, in fact, I wrote a semi-autobiographical novel, story within a story, the back story was mine and then I wrote fiction around that. I wrote a happy ending, something that I never actually got. I also use my emotions, pain and feelings to write poetry. It does help, although, not very much lately. Micci
