Power, Courage & Strength

Writing is a beautiful art. I have realized this of late. I am grateful to that one person( she'll hopefully know that I am referring to "her" here when she reads this) who somehow inculcated the interest in me. It's given me some kind of a power, courage and strength( please note that there is a difference in the meanings of these three words) which I shall try to explain.

I was always a quiet child at school. Still am to the amazement of people; even though I have grown up to be in college now. The reasons for this are very much unclear to me. I could never say things openly even to people who are close to me.There was always a fear inside my heart that I might hurt the other person which in turn would affect me. So, I stayed quiet and it became a habit. I was even tagged: "The Silent One".

I guess that this is the best platform I have got.I have always believed that one can make  difference in someone else's life by what one writes......and it is evident from what we read in history about the great Voltaire and Rousseau( the two figures from the French Revolution).What I cannot say, I will write.This is the power I have got.The power to make a difference. My self-confidence will be my strength and all of this will give me courage to go out do more than what is within my might. It also gives me a chance to explore my inner-self. There's a lot inside; which I am not yet aware of.
