i am not a writer. i barely consider myself as one. so, it was a huge surprise for me na people read my works +++ https://twitter.com/everydaystell/status/1249661248288874496">https://twitter.com/everydays...
if u meet me irl, napakatahimik kong tao. tahimik in a sense na bihira kong ipakita ang nararamdaman ko; tahimik in a sense na i don& #39;t like talking about myself or my feelings kasi parang it& #39;s a waste of time na pakinggan +++
take this thread. i keep constantly typing and erasing kasi natatakot ako na baka sabihin ng iba na pabibo ako or like nagdadrama lang ako +++
when i first started writing stories, i kept it a secret. as much as i could. i didn& #39;t want anyone in my personal life to find those stories that i published on wattpad or the poems na nakasulat sa likod ng notebooks ko. +++
eventually, people found out and most of them supported me. they said na maganda daw mga gawa ko; na magaling daw ako na manunulat. people started to appreciate my works and ngl, it feels good. +++
it feels good na masabihang maganda ang works mo. it feels good na masabihang ipupublish ang mga sinulat mo. it feels good na marami kang napapasaya because of your words. +++
ever since then, i considered writing my escape. sa pagsusulat, naibubuhos ko lahat ng mga emosyong di ko pinapakita sa personal; naibubuhos ko lahat ng mga ideya ko; little by little, i started to know myself more. +++
pero di maiiwasan ang mga pagakakataon na i hate on myself for writing. mga panahon na naiinsecure ako sa mga updates ko. mga panahon na nacoconscious ako sa number ng likes or sa bilang ng mga nagbabasa. +++
for me, a writer& #39;s biggest enemy is themselves. kung masakit ang mga salita ng bashers, mas masakit na magmula ang hate sa sarili mo mismo. +++
and if there& #39;s anything i& #39;ve learned is mahirap kalabanin ang sarili mo. the best way to conquer this is to stop and rest. give time to clear your mind. never pressure yourself. mahalaga na balikan kung bakit ka nagsusulat. +++
this whole thread was so dumb haha i& #39;m not really expecting anybody to read this pero i just want to set this as a reminder to myself.

@cullendalyo read this when you& #39;re sad, confused, feeling worthless, tired.

magpapahinga pero di susuko https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Sparkles" aria-label="Emoji: Sparkles">
