Writers are Resilient

"If You Want to Write" is "A Book about Art, Independence and Spirit" by Brenda Ueland. It teaches us that inspiration requires patience. Writing does not involve becoming an overnight success. You can still make an impact in the lives of others. Writing involves rejection. People may not appreciate you in your lifetime. Do the work anyway. Writing is the soul's labor. It is a labor of love. Love extends beyond a lifetime and cannot be measured by Benjamins. Stop trying. Stop comparing. Be unique. Be resilient. Rise again.

When history hurts us, put the struggle into succinct sentences and you may have a movement out of the darkness and into the light. What greater joy than to shine!
