I just read Angie's latest journal entry. And a thought came to me... That I often ask the same thing to myself.
"Am I doing the right thing?"
"Is this thing suited for me?"
"What if I'm not suited for this?"
It's like... You wear a dress that you really like, but everyone doesn't seem to 'approve' it. As in, they don't give any comments or anything.
If you're in that situation, you may think that... "Am I wearing the wrong dress?"
See, I really like to write. I write whenever I feel like it.
5 days ago, I wrote a story. It's in Indonesian. I posted it in another forum. I was hoping that I could get a lot of comments (even the bad ones), because that story means a lot to me, and I'm sure I wrote a touching story. But what I got? I just got 6 comments.
This happened before around 2 weeks ago. I posted a story too and I only got 7 comments *sigh*
It's not that I want them to read all my stories, but... I don't know. It made me think... "Why? Is my story not good enough?"
I feel like such a fool. Doing something that I really like, but people doesn't even approve it.
Sometimes, I like to think, "maybe I should just give it up". But once again, there's inside of me, telling that "it's ok". Whether they approve it or not, I shouldn't care what people says. The important thing is, I really like to write and I find a happiness when writing.
It's a weird thing that I feel about writing. Because I'm so determined about this. Meanwhile, I'm not even determined when it comes to campus matter. Haha.
Now, I don't really care what people says. Again, I really enjoy writing. That's the most important thing. The more I write, the more I improve. But yeah, it's really nice if people enjoys your stories. But it's okay.
I do what I like :)

ohhhhh.
you think sooo?
"a good stories are good to be shared."i think this is enough to state in your mind.
you just share what you want anyways its your story.
its not a problem even they dont read it.a speacial thing is you know for yoursel that youve made a good story.
and as you think "why dont they read it?" is because maybe they dont read fics stories or some of them doesent have interest on it.
but as i heard in your last sentence,its good that youre encouraging yourself.supporting for you as always.[:
