Writing with a pen

7 Comments

To my readers,

It’s a conscious choice to write more, yet streamline my work.

So you may find me posting erratically every once in a while. Although I continue to write every day as I have for the past couple of years .

I simply started to switch to writing on paper, and I shall post one here regularly, but perhaps  not every day. I sense great joy in picking up a pen and writing. It connects me up wires my hand brain coordination  a little more than tapping on digital keys.

I already find myself relaxing into it as now I can write anywhere anytime with or without internet . This  is simplifying as much as satisfying to me.

To talk about the day I first picked up the pen to write, I wrote a few words and found how strange it felt to be actually inking  on paper  after so long . It was a missing action piece in my work. Typing is not the same thing. It takes away  the flow of continuous touch of the pen on paper.

Although I have written every day digitally over these years. I realise  how important  it is to never lose touch with writing by hand.

Writing digitally  may be faster but fine muscle coordination and postural stability improve  when you write with a pen.Something I want to work on again…

The simple joys of flowing with a pen and looking at your work right before you, a tangible piece that   connects you with yourself in the touch. It’s hard to replace.

My writing, which seemed erratic  at first due to lack of practice, has seen much improvement. Hope this art is not forgotten by other writers.

A point of reflection:

When was the last time you took time to write with a pen on a page ?

    Always Amazed By Beauty of the Pen By Those
    Who Still Master the Art Where Hand Pen
    And Page Are Connecting Dear Savvy

    Together
    Yes To Create
    An Art of Letters
    And Words Yet Sigh

    With Dysgraphia there

    Would Likely Be Few Words
    HandWritten By Pen for me

    Hehe as True my
    Handwriting Still

    Looks at Least
    As Unartistic for
    What A Doctor Usually
    Does Writing Prescriptions

    And Closer to Grade School
    Results Still for me as even my
    Signature is Rarely the Same Unless

    i Take Great Effort with every letter of my Name

    Yet the Piano Came Much Easier to me and Yes A Keyboard
    of Letters and Words Provides A Way to Transfer the Music Yes
    Melody The Rhythm and the Harmony of my Soul With Each Key as

    Shapes Naturally
    Come to Page

    Letters Making

    Words to Page

    A Whole
    Effort in
    Gestalt
    Hehe of Keyboard

    Art

    I write with a pen daily. I don’t like to use a computer to write notes. I much prefer a pen and paper.
