I am the author of my life: I erase pages, I falter between characters
and the plot, some 'burn my books' but because this story is mine, I'll
keep narrating it my way. I am the author of my life, embroiled by
sadness and strife I surge forward, surrounded by sights and sounds I
trudge towards, a destiny I see in my mind, clearly laid out, clearly
mapped out.
Everyday I write and rewrite, I'm not aiming for a
masterpiece, the pièce de rèsistance is me. I am the plot, the hero,
the sheriff, the villain, I am the warrior, the coward, the prologue,
the ending. I don't know how my story begins or how it ends; post womb
amnesia is the bane of our existence. Nonetheless I am now fully aware
of my faculties and that's what I strive to cultivate, a sacred sanctuary
for myself.
My book is penned controversially, my beliefs span a thousand
shades of faiths, but I keep objectivity and subjectivity, fact and
truth as two sides of the same coin. I am the author, the
publisher, the acquisition editor, the marketer. I'm bad with graphics,
but I'm amazing with words, because they are my own, embellished with my DNA, sanctified by my truth, embraced by my fears, laced with my
dreams. I am just an author, and so are you. So, won't you write?!
