Failure or Recognizing Greatness
Jan. 22nd, 2009 10:52 amI just had a grammar fail when editing something with a co-worker.
Something that has been grating against me is how I measure up to others. My dyslexia always makes my spelling difficult and I've gotten used to that. I'm not used to me other odd writing failures. I tend to invert my sentence structures and my thoughts. I'll put information before context.
What makes this blog worthy? I'm really upset. I feel like a failure because I failed at grammar. Picking it apart, I realize that I love grammar. Well crafted sentences and paragraphs just excite me. I'm entertained by them. So my personal failure at grammar really works me up. I love grammar, how can I be bad at it? The big problem is my idea that I must be good at something I enjoy. Enjoying reading a good book has nothing to do with being a good writer. I have an emotional connection here. Well it's something to untangle.
