My Muse and I

Writing from my muse can be a liberating experience, especially when you try to write without stopping, just putting down everything that happened to come to mind. I often find that when I do this I am surprise with what I wrote, seeing a release that I didn't know was needed. As liberating as it can be to write from your muse I also feel some frustrations at time, this mostly happens when I've been given something pacific to think about from an outside source. I find myself trying to "sound poetic" rather then focusing on the pacific item or literature, this becomes very frustrating because besides the feeling of forced poetry the end result is not really a reflection of what was going on inside of my mind. Over all i feel like writing from my muse is a positive thing for me even through when it comes to the pacific assignment's I find myself reluctant to do it, I often write with my muse when I'm not able to organize my emotions internally or after i notice that I've been spacing out.

  1. I think it is a great Idea to use our muses to express frustrations, like you said. I find myself writing with my muse as times just as a release, not for any particular assignment. It is unbelievable what comes from your head sometimes isn't it?!?
