To write or not to write?

To write or not to write ... is not the question. What to write, is the question. I am drowning in emotions, some of which I cannot even begin to understand, and I don't know what to write.
The strongest one, resonating in the very atoms that make up my flesh, is relief. My whole body is sagging with it. It's the weekend and I am exhausted. It's not a moan, or a grumble - I've had a good week, and except for the two hours of intense, unbearable pain I lived through today, I have absolutely nothing to moan or grumble about.

I'm on the sofa, in the living room, listening to Shakira (a beautiful Spanish song of hers called inevitable), chatting with my cousin, a best friend of mine, and an ex-boyfriend of mine (who is always so intent on boasting about how well his current relationship is going & giving me advice on mine). My cat is sleeping next to me, occasionally snoring a little, twisting around, deeply lost in his (seemingly terrible) cat dreams The television's on, muted sound, my sister has a private lesson, my dad is working and my mum is in Brussels. She comes home tonight, late.

What was the question? What to write? Funny. Once you start, it doesn't matter what you write. You just do.

Amen, and Amen. How strange that the simplest things are often the most profound.
