Relationship With Writing

Writing has never been something that has come easy to me and I feel as though I've always struggled with it. I would definitely say that I don't have a good relationship with writing because I really haven't enjoyed or haven't found my passion with it. The part that I dislike most about writing is the imagination you have to have with it. It's hard for me to explore my mind and just write what I'm thinking. I'm constantly over thinking the prompt or project and then end up getting frustrated with myself. I even feel stressed writing this blog, even though it’s only 300 words and an easy prompt. Even though I don't enjoy writing at this point in my life, I really hope that someday I can just sit down and write without being stressed out because it's a great way to express yourself and relax.

Writing in my future is unclear for me right now. I know I'll be writing if I become a nurse, just not as creative, more analytically. I’ll be using writing to write prescriptions and charts.  I have this idea in my head that I won't have to worry about writing as much but I know that's not the case. I hope by the end of this year that my writing has improved and I'm confident with my pieces I work on.I do enjoy reading other peoples’ pieces of work and like getting ideas from them. I love reading my older sisters work and she really does help me and inspire me with my writing, even though I don’t enjoy it. I want to be like her someday and express myself freely.
