Clear The Air

I have always been honest with what I say, so what I am about to say now may not surprise you. When I wrote the opuss "connection" I won't lie, I thought there was a possibility it would get to top day list. But it's not to say that's not how I feel.
I feel love, hate and all the emotions in between. Before I found opuss I was stuck, I knew I had potential to write but I could never even pick up a pen to try. My first posts were short but told people enough to know I needed help, the magical thing was the exact people I needed for help started to leave comments and inspired me to write longer things.
Before I knew it I had written my first poem and it came from my heart. I just felt there's no point hiding anything because if I do I will never get over my fears and never get to live my dreams. Which as it happens are to write, act, sing pretty much anything where I get to express my self and hopefully inspire people.
Unfortunately when you have dreams that big you also need to know you can achieve something big.
So "connection" was written with the hope it get's as high as possible and more importantly spread a poem that summed up how good I think opuss is.
Other people agreed and it became number one. I needed to know if I could achieve something like that, and now I have it has given me more confidence to keep on going and never stop chasing my dream no matter how crazy people think I am. Because its normally the crazy ones who make it.

I'm sorry if this came across as a rant but I just needed to clear the air.
I truly am grateful for all your likes, comments, story's, quotes and poems. You all help in your own way, not just me, but anyone who needs it.
This is a great place and if I hadn't have found opuss and found all of you I would still be stuck and sad.

Thank you all
If you don't like this I am truly sorry

My Opuss Journey

When I first joined Opuss I thought I had to write for other people. At the time the first story I wrote was @puffy1980's prequel almost to 'Stan'.

Before Opuss

It's really funny, before discovering Opuss I couldn't write more than a couple lines of a poem. I guess now thinking about it, some of the song lyrics I wrote could be poems...

I started as an unknown, Longing to write with the best. Inspiration then started to flow, Poetry became an enjoyable test. I've learnt a whole lot about myself, I'll never be the same again.

Fly fly fly, All through my land you need to learn, To fly away. You can change, All the while you need to try, To see the truth today. You need to see the light , not pray.

Losing Yourself.

I used to think that losing yourself when you love someone was a bad thing, as if my whole existence was meaningless and my purpose somehow void... but, I've come to realise this is not the case.

I Am...

I am strong because I know my weakness. I am beautiful because im aware of my flaws. I am fearless because I learnt to recognise illusion from reality. I am wise because I learn from my mistakes.

@Stablish that's truly inspiring and relaxing me. All from the heart. And thank you for writing this for erasing my shyness.

@Stablish thank you so much, it makes me so happy hearing that people want to read that kind of writing of mine. I will definitely work on more. ☺

@maisiebeth can't wait😊

@Stablish Some rude moron named birdman on one of my posts 😪

Lol well, sincerely thank you @Stablish . And you guys @maisiebeth @michga @aleishagayle20 @Stablish @glensaggs are talented. Thank u all for your works. They made my day :)

@kivihe 😜

@kivihe 😊❤

@kivihe ...You're very welcome lovely! Yours too!!😉😍😉🌹

@kivihe 😊😘

@Stablish You have a rare talent mate - love your honesty and the fact that you take time to encourage others.I think the strengh of this beautiful little app is that it offers anonymity to everyone - allows us all to spill our hearts out without fear of ridicule. Having said that, I'd like to see us all wearing Opuss T-shirts so we can identify with each other in the real world! After all I feel being a part of this community is something to be proud of. Oh, and one last thing......Up the Hammers !

@TheCodsPollocks It defiantly is something special, That's west ham out the way now on with opuss😉 its like no other place where honesty's praised and quality writings made every day. It makes me want to rhyme all the things that I say, I don't know what I'd do if it went away. sorry couldn't help myself it just about sums it up though. Thanks for your comment, I want a t-shirt😊

@Stablish congrats on top spot mate, rather you than some copy/paste lol. Just keep doing what you do mate. Being honest with who you are and others will identify as we all have the same ups and downs on the Rollercoaster that is life. It takes balls to be honest and bare your soul to others. ;-)

@smellyfingers Cheers mate, I can't write when I feel I need to let something out, and this really helped. I've been up and down like crazy for the past few days. I'm happy I've made it through though. Cheers for advice and inspiration you've defiantly helped a lot. Look forward to more writing😊

Your posts are among my favorites, well done!

@crowncottage Thank you Linda, this has made me smile😊 hope you have a lovely day😊

@Stablish Well written, but why all the self doubt? Look at all the positive responses & 'likes' you regularly receive. Your writing is remarkable & brutally honest-straight from the heart & soul. But as with everything in life, you can go further...you just gotta believe in yourself a little more now my friend & take heart. There's a lot of people who will be right there with you on wherever that journey takes you😊

@Stablish thank you, you too

@Fly10 Unfortunately I have always had thoughts that try to stop me, the only way for me to get over them is to let them out. Hopefully the bad days will be less frequent now though. Thanks for the support, keep up the good writing yourself.☺

@Stablish 😉
