searching for the inner voice…
Tuesday, December 19, 2006I’ve been wanting to update my blog for a very long time now but every time I start writing, it always ends up being saved as a draft. There was actually a time when words just came out naturally. I remember I would always have a pen and paper handy just so I’d have something where I can write my thoughts down with before I put them out into the open. But recently, it seems like all I have are bottled up voiceless thoughts finding a way to get out.
A very good friend of mine told me once, “In order to write, you have to find your voice. Your voice defines you both as a writer and as a person.” And for some weird reason, I can’t seem to find that voice. I have searched high and low and it feels like I’ve lost it and there’s no way of getting it back. But how does someone lose his/her voice? Is it even possible to actually lose it? Or could it be that one loses his/her voice as a result of losing one’s self? Well, frankly, I don’t know because once again, these are nothing more but mere thoughts…
So, will I ever find my voice? I pretty damn sure I will. As to when that will be, I can’t answer that just yet. But one thing’s for sure. When I do, I’ll scream out LOUD and PROUD and I won’t let anything or anyone shut me up or bring me down.

Meticulous to the bone paying attention to the nitty-gritty details of anything (or anyone) that piques his interest. He's terribly O.C. when he feels like it and other times he just leaves the mess as it is.
