A Bright Light on a Cold Topic.

Writing is something I've always found I had a passion for. Writing about whatever comes to your mind, or maybe writing about something that comes up a lot in conversation and you want to play out on paper and figure out the meaning for yourself. The topics I've been playing with though seem to be far from myself.

Looking back on some of the things I've written lately begin to make me feel like my writing has become limited and screams out with no variety. The cold negative genre that I've been playing off has become tired and repetitive and isn't who I am at all. Events occur in every ones life that change or just a burden on what would otherwise seem like a cheerful day.

With my writing I've always hoped to inspire or touch someone. Not scare them away or make them seem like I'm depressed or secretly deep in emotion with hate. I'm truly one of the happiest people you will ever meet in you life. So how come my writing seems so dark and depressing?

I think when one start's writing, their deeper emotion start's to influence their common one. It's not so much that I'm upset or depressed, I think it's more what I write about influences emotions inside of me. If I'm to write about unicorns my emotions are obviously going to be merry and upbeat. But if I'm talking about be trail and being upset then obviously my writing will be negative.

I've come to the assumption that there really are no negative writers, only negative topics. Some writers choose to only write about sad and depressing things, but if they were to write about unicorns would the same happiness not emerge? Everyone holds a bit of sorrow, depression and loneliness inside them but everyone also holds happiness.

So I guess for me, I'm very influential when it comes to the topic I write about. A story is a writer's playground and for me continuously writing about a sad playground just doesn't bring me to the conclusion that I am or will be a good writer. There's happiness inside everyone and maybe if we all just open our eyes to the positive things we could feel or write about, then the driven out loneliness some people feel trapped writing about will simply go away.
