Sometimes I feel like I put more into my writing than I do my own life. When I first joined wattpad nearly a decade ago, writing was fun and adventurous. Once I opened my notes tab last year and began writing again, I felt the same way. My ideas were coming to life, I had creative sparks everyday during the summer. Ideas I pulled out the closet from years ago. 
          	
          	Shortly after, writing began to feel like a chore. Like a requirement to even keep my account up. 
          	
          	To where I felt more obligated than appreciated.
          	
          	To where my passion with writing turned into me feeling pressure.
          	
          	And feeling pressured in creative endeavors is worse than an academic deadline.
          	
          	Told myself I’d take a break and come back later but I stayed anyway. I stayed because I didn’t want my ideas going to waste. I feel incomplete when I don’t write. 
          	
          	But I feel even empty when I complete a book. 
          	
          	Like many authors, I sometimes judge my work. 
          	
          	But the psychology I integrate within them remains one of the reasons why I keep going foward with them.
          	
          	Again, like many authors, I feel like the superficial aspects of my works are more appreciated than the effort and depth I put my all into.
          	
          	 I feel misunderstood even though my books make perfect sense to me.
          	
          	And at this point, I’m beginning to ponder on if I should stay, take a break or just leave for good.
          	
          	I’m just fucking tired.

Hii!!! Take a break, you deserve it. Everyone needs a reset sometimes, when you get back, just focus on having fun with your writing and don't feel pressured. Honestly, ignore the noise… you’re one of the best authors in the MJJ Wattpad community. Get some rest, but we’ll be waiting for you to come back! <3
