the inertia of writing / and the feeling after

I always experience a fair bit of inertia before writing. yes there are times when I get excited about writing something, and can't wait to start on it. but mostly, be it due to circumstances or otherwise, I don't tend to be able to jump into writing something even if ideas and thoughts have been occupying my head for sometime.


at the same time, once I do get started, and get over the initial hump, writing is actually a very enjoyable process. be it longer pieces of writing, short notes on google keep, being able to translate my thoughts into words that are visible do give some kind of emotional release, be it joy or relief.


of course different types of writing draw out different emotions. but generally writing turns out to be a rather positive exercise. something that I should perhaps try to do more.
