I am not a good writer. I cannot
even choose the right words for me to express what I really feel. I do not know
how to juggle the words where the reader (if there is) can understand my
thoughts correctly. Not to mention that
my grammar sucks all the time. Composing a perfect sentence is just only a
dream to me.
When I was in high school, I was
a part of a school paper. But I guess my membership on it is merely a matter of
luck. That time, the head of our school paper needed a news writer and since I
had an experience on it during my elementary years, I was asked to join the
organization. And that was it; in just a blink of an eye, I suddenly became the
News Editor. Although I had the title, I can still feel that I am not fit for
it. I affirmed my incompetency when all of my friends went to that national
press conference and I am the only one who is left. So, I thought that being a
good writer is only a wishful thinking.

Even that was I felt, my quest in
becoming a good writer still goes on. During college, I took an English class not
just because I am required to do it but because I want to learn more. I studied
hard just for me to become skilled, but it turned out to be my lowest grade
that semester. And I just become disappointed with myself. I recognize that no
matter how I tried to learn the skill, writing seems to be indifferent to me.
Although that is what I sense on
writing, I never hesitate not to write. You see, writing is part of my life
even if I suck at it most of the time. So, instead of trying to figure out the
steps of being a good writer, I decided to create a blog. I put all of my
thoughts there whenever I have time to write. I don’t care if I have a bad
grammar or my thoughts are disorganized most of the time, my heart is just
fixed to write as good as I can be. I am not even bothered if I have a reader
or none, all I know is that I want to voice out my thoughts and my feelings
through writing. But of course this doesn’t mean that I stop learning the
skill. I am still trying to be proficient with it and still accepting the
comments and suggestions of others. So, if you think that there is something
wrong with this article, just let me know.
Until now, I know that I am not
still a good writer but I have this courage to cry out my opinions through it. And
if there is one thing I learned by writing this article, it is by not letting
anyone or anything hinder you to do what you want. So as for me, I never stop
in my quest of being a good writer, I just realize that if you do what you
love, someday you will become the best on it. And so today I just write, as
long as I could.
