For some time now already I feel the need to want to write again...

much earlier in my life I used to be able to write.. just write about anything and everything..

and then I met many different kinds of people.. People who felt and said that I shouldn't say something or feel a certain way.. There was a time when I was posting things regarding some religious sayings and scriptures, and someone commented that by doing so, people may misconstrue that I am a religious fanatic, so I stopped that..

.. and then there was a time when I would write about how people and situations were and some other person said that it may harm me professionally, so I stopped that too...

.. another time, I wrote something about my pupils in school and that was bad as people told me that the pupils' PARENTS may not like it...

... sometimes I do not want to be seen as a competition or trying to compete or mimic someone else who does write for a living or extra pocket money, I don't know...

so WHAT exactly can I write about??

One simply can not be given a topic and be TOLD to write about it..

To me, writing has to come from within... it has to mix and mingle with one's soul and one has to feel so very deeply about the topic that one writes about..

So.. what exactly can I write about??
