Is there something that is always nagging at you. When you wake up at 2 in the morning or 4? Or when you wake up for the day at 7? And off and on all day every day? I have a nagger. She nags for me to write. I've been a journaler for a long time. I write when I'm down, when I'm up, and when I'm sideways.And when I don't feel inspired I write things like.... "I don't know what to write!" When I don't write consistantly, The Nag is there telling me I need to. I don't know why. And I'm not writing a novel or anything. I am just more "me" when I do. Also.. if I don't read a book in a long time, I get kind of "un-me" feeling. I don't like being un-meish.
It's probably like my husband when he doesn't climb. Or my friend Kim when she doesn't do her art of sculpting. Or my sister when she doesn't run. But do they wake up thinking about it?
It's in me. It's just in me. So a resolution for the new year is WRITE. Even if I have nothing to say. I will write.. pen to paper..until the nag shuts up. Then, I will just know that I will be writing that day and not have to think about it day and night and night and day.
This is a lot of the reason I am going to be teaching the journal writing class in a week. So I will be forced to participate!
