Frustration! #1 (permalink) Wed Aug 05, 2009 11:47 am   Frustration!
 

I hide behind the keyboard, an apparent introvert, with an extrovert inside screaming to be let out.

I'm a writer of drivel, who dreams of being a writer.

I'm a literate person who pines over never having had the opportunity to become a teacher.

I'm a romanticist without a beauty to woo.

A comedian without an audience.

A singer without a single admirer.

An elderly athlete whose lungs and heart can take no more, who has resigned himself to taking it easy, in spite of my hatred of doing so.

Do I really have to give up on all that I had aspired to, or is there still something that I can be successful at?

Of course! You say you are an English teacher too. Don't you have any pupils who email you and want to learn more English ?
Maybe many pupils have difficulties to email you. I can't find you email at googlemail.com

You know, Kitos, again I cannot keep myself from writing this lines. I cherish kindly feelings for you since I found this forum. Also you resemble me my father in law - he sings songs and writes them but never ever tried to publish them. In the very start of his career he had made a mistake - he became an electronics technician and in my opinion it would be better if he became a song writer.

If you want to know my opinion - you have undisputed writing talant. And it would be great loss if you burry it. Althouhg you are an introvert, you have to try to publish your works. I think that you could start from childs' fairy tales and beleive me you can become even more renown than the author of Garry Potter.

There is one Ukrainian saying: "Water never rush under a laying stone". :wink: So good luck to all your deeds, Kitos.
