That Weird Costumed Kid

lovewroteandwrit:

Unravelling your knots, part one.

1. Get up early, while the rest of the house is quiet. Make a cup of tea and drink it, lean against the cupboard, read yesterday’s paper. Watch the sunrise out of the kitchen window.
2. Go for a run. Run until your chest burns and you can feel your heartbeat in your toes. Listen to the trees (ignore the sound of traffic) and fix your eyes on the sky.
3. Wear your favourite dress (the one that makes you feel like the person you could be, if only you were brave enough)
4. Read novels about faraway places and people you’ve never met. Smell the pages, run your finger along the spine.
5. Create something every day: a sentence, a poem, clothes, a drawing, a batch of cupcakes. Anything, as long as you can see it and touch it and know it to be true.
6. Write a list of five beautiful things.
7. Sit in a coffee shop with a book. Pretend to read it. (Watch other people instead.)
8. Learn a new language. Stumble over the way it sounds, pronounce words wrong, read poetry even though you don’t know what all the words mean. Create your own meanings.
9. Share one secret with someone who loves you.
10. Write until your wrist aches, write until your pen stops working, write until you run out of words. Keep writing.
