"Why a writer?" I thought.

I asked God that of all the things that I can be good at why writing? Why am I someone who loves writing? I thought that maybe if I used to love science then being in the science field would give me certainty in life that I could be a nurse, a doctor and have a job inside the hospital or maybe if I loved math I could be an engineer, an architect, etc. or I could just be in the technology field. I just thought that I could have a passion that has the certainty of life, a teacher, a banker, a flight attendant, an editor and any job that has a firm way of living and enjoy it because right now as much as I love writing I can't help but wonder, why does my present and future as a writer seem so blur?
 
I do know that I love writing and that writing is my passion because for some reason I could close my eyes and think of stories to write, I could sleep and then write my dream as soon as I wake up and make use of that story and turn it into something more, I could open my laptop and keep on typing the words that are in my head. Being a writer comes with a lot of hurdles to overcome and for me, as an aspiring writer, it is a constant battle of uncertainties, hesitancy, doubtfulness, and wavering just to pursue writing. I always ask myself a question of "what's next?" after every story that I've written but since it still remains a question until now maybe my what's next is to keep on writing anyway even if I don't know what's next in my life as a writer.

I am sure that with all the books that have been written and all the movies that have been made and how is it out there and uncountable then maybe I too should just keep on writing no matter what and as long as I find my peace in writing and I still have stories to tell then I am writing and for what it's worth I hope that someday I could be out there, that someday I would have someone to actually read what I'm writing.

I am a writer because I am one and I have a lot of stories to share.
