About a year ago or even longer, I wanted to start a blog but I had this fear of people judging me for the way I write. I hate structure, I believe structure is like any other law out there - oppresses freedom, yes some law must be followed but why in writing? I write what I feel works for me and not for anyone else, I might rhyme for a bit and then there is no trace of a word that rhymes
In school I was always judged heavily by the hand of my markers, until I found an awesome English teacher who loved the weird way I wrote, he encouraged me to keep a book and to this day I have some books and paper all with the most awesome unstructured pieces (Well to me they are). I then left school and my writing came to a halt for a bit because of rugby and having to study... biggest waste of my life, that's what happens when you don't follow with your heart, I wanted to act, do photography, play in a band enjoy the things that make me happy - but I was good at rugby but my body was far from ready to take the impact of guys twice the size of me, so that was that.
I have now finally moved on with the things I want to do, I now have the blog even though it took me forever to get it up here, but now I really don't care what people think of my writing, its weird and sometimes just does not make sense, but trust me there is a reason for that piece and will make sense to those who are open minded...
Well this was just a bit of how I got into my blog and my style hope it gives some insight.

It makes ones heart skip a beat to know that feeling such as these can be bestowed upon oneself from another.
