“Create with the heart; build with the mind.” – Criss Jami

Hi lovely readers!

Here I am staring again at my black screen and can't think of anything to write. The blank screen looks like a canvass that is waiting for its artist paint something. I think there are really times that we don't know what to do no matter how inviting the canvass is. No matter how many colors are in front of you if you can't think of any thing or if you don't have the willingness in you to start something it will still remain a blank canvass.

But are we going to let that blank canvass remains like that? Do you want to display it without colors in it? of course not right? Remember there are so many colors in front of you that you can use with that blank canvass all you have to do is start choosing what colors to use. There is red, blue, green, black, orange, yellow there are lots of paint colors that you can choose from and you can even mix those colors to create a new shade. All you need to do is to have that willingness to start it. Choose that one color and start painting it with that blank canvass and I'm sure without you knowing it you've already enjoying what you are doing.

Painting is just like the realities of life.

The blank canvass represents our life and the colors represents the things that we do in our every day life. Of course, no one wants their life to become boring and uneventful right? Every person wants their life to be exciting with adventures. They want their life to be that colorful. That is why we choose to add colors in it. Everyday we choose the colors that we are going to use. Everyday we choose to use a different color. That is how you make your life colorful. That is how you make your life exciting. That is how you make your life more meaningfull. And every day you should also have the willingness to live your life the way you want it to be unless you want it to remain just like blank canvass.

Painting is just like writing.

The blank canvass represent the paper and the colors represents the pen and the ideas that you are going to use to create something beautiful. You have to start typing or writing words in order for you to create a wonderful piece. Of course, you also have to be creative, you will need your experiences to be able to add emotion on what you are writing. Colors are the ideas that will add beauty in what you are writing. And the one that will make you start with that first word that you are going to use is your willingness to create a beautiful piece.

You see, you will not be able to create something from that blank canvass if you don't have the willingness in you to start something. The colors, the pens, the ideas, the dreams will all be useless if you will not have that drive to make something beautiful. If you don't have it in your heart to start something you will not be able to do anything. So even if its hard, even if you can't find a way how to start it, just keep on going, just make your first move and everything will follows.
