“We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect” — Anaïs Nin
This is such a magical perspective on writing. I like to appreciate the good side of writing. It’s not all good, I accept that, but this perspective is so beautiful. After writing the same thing over and over again, you’d think you’d get tired of it. But honestly, I don’t write my favorite moments down. I really should. I feel like elements of the moment can get lost in translation. Learning writing techniques helps. Grammar helps. But still, writing about an amazing moment just feels so wrong. But I should try it!
What do you think? Do you write down your favorite moments after they’re gone?
