Learning How To Get It Right

When I started writing, I was a young eighteen and I can still remember the first piece I ever wrote. To say it was terrible is an understatement to say the least, but I am not ashamed I wrote it no matter how bad it was. It’s a part of my history now, the beginning point for everything I have achieved, the first step that I took. It was a bit clumber some as all first steps usually are, unless you are a genius of which I am clearly not. They say the more you practice, the better you are going to get. I have been practicing for forty years now and I am still not perfect yet. Nor do I think I will ever be, for if I thought I was perfect I would give up completely. I am still learning and I’ll remain that way until the day I eventually die. So, if you see mistakes in my work you’ll understand the reason why, I am still learning on how to get it right. 19 July 2008
