A writer

What defines a writer? I was wondering.

Long ago, I had got this feedback that I should write in a way that a person who is reading it, can 'feel' what I have written. If I have written a poem, a person should be able to feel the depth of each word.

I had taken that quite seriously. I have been trying to improve my writing by doing proof-reading (many times) and making sure that the meaning is being conveyed in its right manner.

Recently, I was given a feedback as I have not written about Love when I claimed to try to write about. It was a straight forward opinion.

It was shocking and disappointing, BUT, that is exactly my aim when I say I want to excel in writing - I want to write in a way that every single person who's reading my post can feel the 'right' purpose behind the post, can feel the right meaning of the words used. I wish to see that day soon!! (I need to study more about how to write, I guess)

mmm.... Have nothing to suggest.. When u find it "HOW", please share....

I guess you received that feedback because your article says Love and you have covered only one Form of Love.. Though you have looked at all the perspective in that form .. but it was concentrated on Love between U and ur Spouse(/Partner).

All you needed to do mayb was modify the title w.r.t Context. But again thats my perspective..

I have something else to add here but then everyone has their own way n thought process and I do not wanna clog your learning curves with overacting suggestions... :)
Bye for now... keep njoying.

I understood everyone's comment.

Ravi,
Did not my post title say "Love for a Partner" ?
And in the beginning I said there are many forms of love where one of them is Love for a partner.

When I started writing, I thought I am covering both the sides of a relation - meaning - one from my perspective who is seeking a partner and who loves the partner for his love in different forms. And other from my partner's perspective, who will shower his love in all these different forms to again receive the same pure love from my side.

I was thinking, I am going in a quite right direction for the post-title. But I guess, your comment also explains some missing pieces.

Nova,

Honey, I write from my heart but I am not a great writer, so I have to do proof reading because I have to make sure my English and my grammer is correct, I have to see If I am saying in right tense. Talking to myself could be a different tense.. can't it be?

But as said, Heart is the source of creation. I will not give up and keep trying.

Krupa,

As you said "looking into someones eyes" and "making a connection", I try to imagine that feeling, the soul-to-soul connection! Nothing else should matter. Your "attributes" for love of a partner are terrific, but attaining the "feeling" that must truly be something. The heart speaking to you, telling you, there is nothing in this world or any dimension that could replace the elation. Birds sing louder, a rose smells stronger, the skin is softer, the blue sky brighter, and the kiss, ahh the kiss is sweeter, and maybe, just maybe, the Heart is warmed....For some, they have managed to find such a place, and others continue searching for such a connection. "What does it feel like?" I wonder....!

I also suppose one must first find the courage to look into anothers eyes...and not past them...

Nicely written.
"""What does it feel like?" I wonder....! ""
I am sure you must have felt that feeling but at that time your mind must had questioned and you forgot to listen to your heart.

Generally, If I want to find out how the other person is, I judge based on his/her eyes. The honest, culprit, shy, bold, extra-bold, friendly, vulgar.. etc.. all can be identified by a person's eyes. However, that should not be the final conclusion about someone. We could start with some image though.

And, YES, one must have courage to look into ones eyes. If one tries to skip that contact then may be there is something wrong with that person himself.

By the way, your comment is irrelavant to the post-title here. You can comment on the same post where you had this question/comment. I do respond to the past dated posts. (It's not Only current post that I respond to:-))
