![]() ![]() Best of all, you'll join a community of writers all cheering you on toward the same goal. It's a way to tap into your creativity in the midst of stress. Setting aside a time to write creates a tiny bit of structure in your day. I believe that this is the perfect time to start a creative writing habit. If you're like me, the habits you're used to are all gone, at least for now. Our regular schedules have been entirely disrupted. We've all experienced a lot of upheaval in the last few weeks. You don’t have to be disciplined to have a habit. ![]() A habit is something you do without thinking. That’s why I like habit so much more than discipline. Even after finishing fourteen books, I still struggle daily with discipline. Well, that's where our 7 Day Creative Writing Challenge comes in!īut before I tell more about the challenge, let me tell you why we’re doing this: A Writing Habit Is Better Than DisciplineĮvery day, I get emails from people saying, “I want to be a writer, but I don’t have the discipline to finish anything.”Īnd I get that because that’s where I was. ![]() Still, you’re ready to commit and focus on your writing (or refocus). Or you're discovering it's really hard to build your own habits and routines into your day. But you’re not sure how to stay disciplined. I do always pray that God will give them more years to enjoy life with us and their grandchildren and that I may be able to let them experience the comfortable life they deserve – that I may realize with all the best that I can do because they truly deserve the best things in this world because they are the best part of ME.You want to become a writer, and you might even have some extra time now to make it happen. Their love was tested when they lost their first child, KUYA LENDO BREN… yet, here we are now, four (4) beautiful ladies and 1 man as fruits of their love ^_^įor more than 3 decades, I am a witness of their love story… our family also has our ups and downs and they are our PILLARS that keep us strong, their love for us keeps us bonded to each other, showing support to one another and always gives back to God for all the blessings that we receive, especially this precious gift of FAMILY. Their call of endearment is “MAHAL” ( love). I was young then when I knew that they kept a diary where they exchange their entries as lovers. They have sealed their love on February 28… I can no longer recall the year, but the date was so vivid in my memory while reading their diary. My mother was also a volunteer in a Day Care Center and at night, they were classmates taking Teacher Education bachelor’s degree. Hence, their theme song is “I STARTED A JOKE”, which my father sang, during this photo shoot.īoth of them were working college students. Whenever my mother asks if there’s a mail for her, my father always tells her that nothing arrived since he did not write any love letters yet. My mother was fond of sending letters to her pen pals, while my father was a postman. My parents were college sweethearts and their love story started with my mother hating my father for his jokes at the post office. Let me just fill these spaces demanding for the details about my parents about the LOVE they have shared and was blessed by heavens for 40 long years and more. It’s just so overwhelming – this blessing I receive from heaven – my parents. I am always lost for words to write because my emotions are soaked into genuine happiness I feel inside. In many moments of my life, I can always say that whenever I am writing the words from my heart, it also drags my tears to flow from my eyes. Indeed, it was a precious blessing from God. I decided to continue working on this 30-day Writing Challenge because I have the sweetest reason to post for the Day 5 – About My Parents ^_^ Just this Sunday, June 5, 2022, they have celebrated their 40th Wedding Anniversary. This writing challenge has been in hiatus. ![]()
