I have found that my goals should be to write for myself. Then I will probably write more. Many times I have discovered old stories and papers that I wrote in school and I enjoyed them very much. I enjoyed them so much that I questioned whether I wrote them. Alas, I did. I think the key in the past was enjoyment. I laugh or ponder over past writings enjoying the flow. Often I can be my own worst critic... So, my new goal is to just write for my own enjoyment, not the enjoyment of others. I guess there came a point where I felt obligated to write, so it became much less enjoyable.
Capiche?
It is Friday night. I am waiting for Sue to come home. Today I received a movie from Netflix that I never remember ordering. it is a foreign film, which admittedly I really enjoy. However, the content is romance between three teenagers. Not my speed, and I still wonder if this is one of Alexis movies. I know Sue will not like it.. She hates foreign films...and anything in subtitles. Nudity and foul language bother Sue as well. They are not very high on my priorities for renting films either, but some of the films that are recommended unfortunately have this content and it is hard to convince Sue that I rent movies purely for enjoyment intellectually. Hmmm.....she doesn't believe me and I find it fruitless fighting over it. It feels good to be writing. I should try this more often.
