my little corner of the universe

When I was a little girl, we used to have writing tasks at school. The teacher would give us a topic and we'd have to make up a story of approximately 2 pages. I would always go over the top and add detailed pictures and descriptions and sit for ages trying to get my characters perfect. 

Since forever, I've loved writing. I just always have. I love the sound of a pen on a paper, trying to keep up with my thoughts. I love the rhythm of a keyboard typing and erasing ideas within seconds. I love the feeling of anticipation in my stomach and the words crowding my head. I love the way everything and everyone gets shut out and it's only you and your wild, WILD imagination. In that short eternity, I love and appreciate myself and my talents and I am like a proud mama bird watching her babies fly for the first time.

And when I read other pieces that other people wrote, I get so amazed and inspired that I have full on goosebumps climbing up and down my whole body. I love, love, LOVE reading. Almost more than I love writing. I love losing myself and waking up to reality again. And I love learning things like interesting words that describe stuff perfectly.

Sharing my heart scares me. But words from the heart have a way of touching people and making them smile. And making people happy makes me happy. And writing makes me happy. And reading too. And other little things. (I'm very easy to please)

So I decided to blog. To celebrate my love and to broadcast it. To celebrate feeling happy and to try and create a domino effect. To share my heart on a screen on my own little corner of the universe.

Hello. And welcome. To my little corner of the universe.

This is me.
Pauli.
One of 7 billion.
And these are the whispers from my heart...

  5. Pauli, I can already tell from this ONE post that you are a phenomenon. The way you write is gorgeous. I'm so glad you decided to blog, and I'll definitely be following.
    Also, I'm the same. Posting your writing publicly is slightly scary, because it's a part of you. But well done for being brave. I hope you're well rewarded for it.

    I'm looking forward to more beautiful whispers. x
