Writing is very powerful but can also be a weapon. I consider my weapon words to be an ancient chinese ferret on occasions, knowing full well a snake attacks, yet not caring and prancing about til I kill it or it gets me..........(ferret joke, I have one)
What I mean by a weapon is I tend to be an extremist, I will do things to death, and writing can be that as well. Sometimes I need to walk away from what I wrote, and completely avoid it, giving me time to process what can't be done in an instant, (hate instant pudding) (and for anyone else reading this, might and I have a bizarre lingo, just ignore my bizarre comments unless you find them humorous, we do) which frustrates me, if its broke fix it, if they don't have the part give me the proper tools and i'll fabricate it, I want it done now, is my attitude.
So walking away and coming back in a week or so, when new stuff has occurred, (btw, the way my brain is now post ptsd, I am born every day and die every night, I do not have tomorrows, tomorrows for me are never, I only can relate to what has occurred and what is occurring in the present tense. Make sense?
Any who, writing is also very beneficial, it sneaks out things we don't realize, again leaving the writing when you've had too much, and come back to discover you threw in a way to help yourself out of a current problem.
I love writing.....................
