What Writing Is Teaching Me About Not Needing Closure for Every Thought?

An ending isn’t a necessity, but enhancement certainly is. I recognise imperfect thoughts as my incomplete learnings, which will help me evolve later. The process I don't know, but I know where to stop to improve. Every thought, view, and opinion doesn't need closure; they could enhance anytime, anywhere. I feel happy when a story is incomplete. It makes me more curious to explore every possible outcome for it. Every possibility enlightens me with much more interesting views. Neither does it end, nor does it let knowledge end. On this journey, I started writing with small efforts to express. As I continued, those efforts got a direction, which later joined my discipline, belief, and confidence. That non-closure continuation helped me reduce my hesitation to express. At the end of every blog, I ask myself a question for improvement. It's not a closure but an entrance for enhancement.

What Writing Is Teaching Me About the Fear of Running Out of Thoughts?

Not anxious, not worried, but a thought that is resisting me to think. A bit of questions filled with what if? They are not just stopping me from continuing to write but are also affecting my brain; to overthink only about those questions. Sometimes, the brain becomes an arena where two thoughts fight.

Nervousness on the face, mind blank in between while writing a blog. A question constantly revolving in the brain: what if I had no thought to write, a complete blank mind? This question arose yesterday while writing the blog. Saying I don’t fear this situation would be a lie, but I know how to deal with it.

I was writing yesterday’s blog with full excitement, but suddenly a thought knocked on the brain’s door. Such thoughts can’t be avoided. The excitement changed to nervousness, the smile on my face faded away. Thoughts of what I would write when I would have no thoughts scared me for a minute.

After five to ten minutes, the thought disappeared. The smile returned to my face, and I continued and published the blog. Those five to ten minutes of silence played a critical role in dealing with the fear of running out of ideas.

In those minutes, I remembered the lessons I had written before and learned while blog writing. The lesson that patience would benefit me in many situations. Ideas would not finish ever, but would come after emptiness. Our brain is a factory that would never stop producing ideas; whether good or bad doesn’t matter.

After this arena war of thoughts, I finally realised these questions are the result of writing. They were not there when I was lazy, but are now because I am trying to come out of that comfort.

Sharing thoughts with honesty needs courage. And when you have courage, fear can’t stop you from showing up. Fear fades away when consistency shows up.
