On Writing

I write a lot of posts that you never see.
It's not that they are too private or too bold.
It's not that I write them and then change my mind about publishing them.

It's because I write them when I'm in the shower.
I write them when I drive.
I write them when I'm feeding the baby, when I'm giving the kids a bath, and when I'm falling asleep at night.

They are all grammatically correct, insightful, and oh-so-witty.
The trouble is, they are all written in my head.


And when I come to the computer thinking I'll remember what it was that I had "written"--they're gone.
*sigh*

    I just try to trust God that if it's an important subject, thought, etc that He'll bring it back later... maybe...
