Myself
Some may have a idol, a writer that had impressed you during all your life, someone that you would love to achieve or just be. Maybe it’s more than one. Maybe you just want to be a mosaic of the best qualities of them.
But, I don’t think the same. I feel that writing is my way of be. My way of see the world. Doesn’t mean that I don’t learn by others, have those who write better than me, those whom I know I probably won’t ever reach. I read their works and try to find a better way to express myself, they had teach me a lot, I can tell. But, I don’t want to be them. I don’t try to reach them. I try to reach the best expressions and ways to show what I see, touch, smell and feel. To show to everyone my perspective of the world around me. How I see the universe.
So, who is the writer I wanna be, you are probably asking. I wanna become me. I don’t need to be someone else, because if we were all the same, the world would be stuck in the same way, never growing. I have things to teach, as you do. I need to leave my mark in the world - no matter if it’s a big or small one - but someone need it. As you do. I can’t tell what do need to do. I don’t know anything about you. I just know about me. And I don’t wanna be a copy of someone else. But I don’t wanna be stuck in this way. I want to change. I want to become someone better, without losing my way. In another words, I wanna be a better me. To reach by best potential. The best version of me.
