Being a writer

Being a writer is not easy. It is exhausting. It is painful. It deprives you of the connection you have with your loved ones. It is time consuming. It is the worst habit. It is a distraction. It requires you to face rejection like an old friend. It kicks you and pushes you, making you fall. It makes fun of you when you fall. You make fun of you when you fall. But just when you are ready to give up, it picks you up again. And when you feel confident again, its pushes you down again. You get ready to give up again. Again, it picks you up. And it keeps doing that, until it is sure that you are not just flirting with it. It wants to know that you are committed, so that it can take you to great heights. Once it knows that you are committed, it gives you happiness, it makes you feel proud of yourself, it gives you a sense of accomplishment. It connects you to people like, people who appreciate you and love you. It makes you the best. And that is why my friends, being a writer is worth everything.
