A reader’s comment:  

First off I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I have had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Many thanks!|

Me:  

Dear reader,

This may be something you do not understand but will you give me a moment of your time?  At first, after reading your comment, I thought in my head:  why should I pay much attention since I will only be giving away my secret and I will give it away for free.  I quickly got bored and (according to Venerable Fulton Sheen) loved nothing.

Then, I got led to this video Wasting your life – Venerable Fulton Sheen.  Interesting title, no?  Now, let me have some of your time.  I recommend you watch this video first.

This is what I got from this video – I found Jesus.  Before the minute begins with writing on a topic, He became my purpose.  I suffer from mental illness, depression, and anxiety.  All I wanted to do with my blogging was to write to people with this illness and share how God in my life led me to choose to live a relatively happy life.

I wasted my life as explained in the video.  I wasted my life expending my energy on being extra kind to readers.  I did not withhold my energy.  Some readers had questions about my website host.  Others had questions, like you, about blogging.  While these questions do not have anything to do with my topics, I, like King David, still poured out to waste my water rather than drink it to satisfy my desire and be quenched.  In other words, I begin with not being selfish with my writing.  I write to help the readers.  I begin with the purpose I mentioned above (God) and focus on ending with the same purpose.

Before the minute begins with writing on a topic, I also pray the St. Augustine’s Prayer.  I know I am taking up your time but these ideas really help me and I am trying to help you, my neighbor.  It may seem I am doing foolish things but I write to you anyway.

That is how I begin with writing on a topic.  I begin with a purpose to serve God in all that I do.
