Poems and Sketching
I have been writing poems and sketching for some time now, I realized one day when I couldn't get a grip on my feelings and emotions that it helped me for the time being. It is not a long-term fix, but it sure does help. Some people might say they don't have talent to write or draw or sing or whatever else there is, however, you don't have to have talent to do something you enjoy that you can use to cope in life. So, if you get the chance to do something that will help you find yourself for even a moment, please don't hesitate just to do it and no matter the talent you will get the benefit of it and that's all that matters.

Well said. I really love writing and discoursing on my thoughts when I feel that I am in a rut or when I'm particularly feeling apathetic from the days hassles. Although I wouldn't say I'm great at it, it really does help me express myself and I enjoy it very much :)
Enjoyment is key.

I have recently begun drawing and writing poetry again after losing my confidence in it for so many years. Though I still have no confidence in it, it really helps to express what I'm feeling when i can't find the spoken words. I had forgotten how much I loved doing those and the enjoyment I feel now makes me want to pick up those activities I dropped because I thought I had no 'talent'. Reading your post made me realise that it doesn't matter if I have no talent, or whether I think I'm good enough, or if others put me down. All that matters is that I enjoy what I'm doing. And that's that.
Aww what a lovely post spreading such a positive message! 😊 I am glad that writing poetry is a helpful creative outlet for you, thats amazing 💙 Thank you for sharing!
