This is something that we have in common. I feel like I have the stories of a million lives in my mind. They are nonfiction. However, they are somewhat incomplete. Because there are details, I can no longer remember. I have a strong desire to write, read, and tell stories.
For me, it is a compulsion to bring understanding to lives that felt so misunderstood including my own. There is also a need to document lives that were cut short, but mattered nonetheless.
However, I always feel very inadequate when it comes to writing. one day, I will overcome this feeling and share some of my writings.
I love reading your stories. There is so much beauty in your stories. There is even beauty in your vulnerability in your sorrow and loss. What I love and admire the most about your story is your strength to make your own decisions on how you want to live your life going forward.
Thank you for this, Tammy. I think the writing is important and helpful, even if it is private. I am glad you are writing even if you are not always ready to share. Your story is similar to my own in that you are the one left behind. You are more alone on this than I am. But I remember things my siblings don’t. It’s just part of who I am. And, I was older.
I’m so glad my witting resonates with you. I can’t NOT do it, and it is always gratifying to feel like it makes a difference.
