I used to keep my words to myself because I believed they were meant for larger audience— for people would would appreciate their meaning and find them uplifting.
Now I no longer care if I share my words even if it were to an audience of five.
I’ve come to realize: if they aren’t worth repeating, then they weren’t as good as I thought.
A time will come when the words find themselves useful and if I must repeat myself, so be it.
I’ll leave it to my audience to decide what’s useful.
I’m only in control of my writings for as long as I keep them concealed. Once I share them, they belong to the world.
Throughout history, this has forever been the case.
My quote for the day:
If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write things worth reading, or do things worth writing.
— Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard’s Almanack
