I don't know wheather to write on paper or directly onto the computer anymore. I don't know if that even matters. I am absolutely aware that I get handaches from writting in the "traditional" way...it is a matter of nostalgia I guess. My (right) hand recognizes the paper writting as the ultimately true writting, and wants to go on despite the pain. Keep holding that pen in my hand although it's half way falling of and my hand is shaking.
I must face the truth, writting in cyberspace is virtually "walking on air". My hand doesn't want to walk on air, it craves for a piece of paper and an inkpen.
And why should it matter how I write? Isn't the material more important than the method? I cannot answer...my hand dictates and I struggle to finish what I have to say and trying to make sure the next time I read I understand what it says...
Living is the same as writing on paper. We try to make the memories legible enough so that the next time we take a look at them we understand what they meant for us.

the platform or the content? I sure both matter. but sometimes we have to let go of a platform to welcome a new one and to accept that the content its also modifying. Maybe for a "clearer" yourself?... neh.

and think of saving the rain forest while using less paper...
yes...it's true, electronic platforms are ecologically friendly. that deosn't mean my hand knows what that is, she craves for a return to the beginnings.
