#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 5

Hello Poetteers,


I have put my heart out there with my poems, but I'm about to do it with a letter. It's personal and hard for me, so be kind, please. Thank you! And here's my love letter poem (:

Dear Fida,

Habibti, no matter how bad and hard it is right now you will be in a better place with awesome people, old and new. Those who listen to you, understand your silence and wait for you to talk. Know you need a heart to heart, but sometimes just want a hug and their presence beside you.

You will overcome your disability and fears. You will get out of that job and get a new, better one. You will see your writing succeed with love, touched souls. You will find someone who loves you more than your crush or maybe it is him or not.

You will get to do more travels. You will be inspiring, a good role model and mentor. You will get to be more you.

Love, Fifi

This is so beautiful! It sounds like you went through some tough times, but that you came out better and stronger on the other side.

I love how you ended it, "you will get to be more you."

In the end, that's what we all need: the freedom to be ourselves <3

You made me tear up. Life's ups and downs are only stepping stones. They show us the path we travelled to our present. Bad things aren't just bad they serve a purpose to show us a better way. And to keep us strong and motivated to become better.
Such a beautiful and inspiring letter! Thank you so much for sharing it with us--I know how hard it is to put personal things online. And I'm with Kelly and Stephanie--that last line is perfection.

Hearing About IWSG

Hello readers, I was reading Ali's post about this support group that talks about writerly doubts. I have doubts and I shall share them because that's the point of a support group. I used to be insecure about traditional publishing, that no one with accept my writing. Then I heard of self publishing. Yet that added to my insecurities. I have no money or talent to showcase my writing. After IndieReCon I felt a better, yet once the high went away, I find it's only a little bit better. I need a team, I need help. I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter. The only reason I stay is for the knowledge. And the worse insecurity, dare I say it. All the above add to me... wanting to quit writing. I have little motivation and that motivation is to show my Muslim community you don't have to be a doctor or lawyer or teacher to be...

If you have read it or is planning to read it I would love to see your review on goodreads ! Poetry Prompt : Write about the feeling reading gives you. a Rafflecopter giveaway Love, Fida # Poetteers
