Sometimes, when I'm in a mood, I like to flip through my favorite books or read my favorite poems and find lines that jump out at me. I'm always searching for the perfect phrase, the perfect quote that sums up how I feel. I get very frustrated when I can't find one, as was the case today.
And then I thought, why don't I find the perfect way to fit what I'm feeling into words myself? I'm a writer, I can come up with my own quotes. I don't need someone else to vocalize it for me.
It was a really liberating thought. I forget that I put myself in boxes sometimes, and it's nice to open them up and let myself free once in a while.
