For fear or love…

By

Question: What evokes you to write: fear or love?

Answer: I’ve ruminated this very subject in recent days; I suppose that I surmised that I am moved in both love and fear…while it is mostly in the vein of love, there is fear present. It is in the fear of not expressing, the fear of not possessing, thus I love and it inspires that I love what I fear, for in loving it…I understand it. Thank you for this profound question.

Sincerely,
Tshombe

    If the subject adores the object more than himself, the result is love. Vice versa, it results in fear. Depends on what is more dear to us, our image of ourselves writing or our writing’s image.

      Great points; there is a reciprocity between the object and subject; love is the primary, while fear is its motivator.
