I spent about 25 minutes writing last night, and it carried over a bit past midnight. I was getting sleepy, but I knew I had to get some words down!
I felt led to call this post “Words: A Part of the Journey”, I think because the meaning of words is so important. What we say is, what we write is.
When I was school age I had a subject called Etymology, the study of words and their roots. It was one of my favorite subjects, and to this day I enjoy looking up the definitions and meanings of words and names.
If you’re a writer, words are our business! And if you’re in another form art, I hope and pray the power of positive words lifts you up — shut down the negative ones. The power of life and death is in our tongue.
With the title of this blog, the song “Words” by Cheap Trick came to me. It’s a great song and one Holy Spirit (HS as I like to call Him!) has given me before. I will share the video link at the bottom of this post.
Last night, I wrote for 25 minutes and used the Pentel Krazy Pop pen, and I thought wow this is such a cool and beautiful ink! Blue and yellow swirl mix, with some glitter. I had forgotten I had purchased these, so it was like using them for the first time! I packed the other Krazy Pops in my work bag today, and look forward to using them.
Today, so far, I’ve written for about 10 minutes, and I’m going to try and get some more words down!
I’d love to hear your progress today and what you’re working on!
