Writing Helps
Our brain is like a processor capable of handling multiple processes at a time. That's useful. We can process information far more than we can even imagine. Light, temperature, feel, smell, taste; everything happens parallelly. Most of them are not in your control.
We hate it when something isn't in our control. If something doesn't taste good, we refrain from eating. If the temperature's scorching hot, we search for a cool shade. If something's not in control, we try to bring them into control. One we fail to take control of is Thoughts.
Random. Very random. Why do I even think of a bag I used to have in school while having lunch at the office? It's weird. It's like we are a DVD player and someone's playing a random movie within us all the time; changing CDs, forwarding, pausing for no reason whatsoever. So irritating. So uncontrollable.
But the moment you put it out, everything starts streamlining. It could be anything; talking it out loud to a friend, blabbering it to a colleague. The moment you start forming words of those gibberish thoughts, the movie plays at a constant pace. No pausing, no forwarding, just a constant 1x pace until the movie's over. You can then pull out the CD with satisfaction.
Writing is one of those options. Why I write is because I won't have a person when two movies are playing at 5x 3'o clock in the night. I don't even want to wake people up to play it on them. So I write. Daily. Sometimes I have a whole two-part Baahubali to write or a short 2-minute video. But, as I write and put it down, I know it feels good to play it at a constant pace. It is slower to write than to talk, yes. But as you write and write, you look forward to that feeling which you'll get at the end. So write. Just keep writing till Ballaladeva is killed, don't keep rewinding to think why Kattappa killed Baahubali.
Just Write
