I'm a teenage writer with big worries yet even bigger dreams. Writing is how I channel my emotions. I suppose it's also a bit of an act of rebellion, but it's not as if I'm rebelling against negative things like grief or resignation. I acknowledge their presences and I bleed on the paper instead. I've had depression for a few years now, so death has always been something that's on my mind, one that's neither uncomfortable nor daunting. But today you put a new perspective to death and the unpredictable amount of time we are given before it as people born to create. Strangely enough, you put me at peace. It reminded me of my reason for pursuing writing as a career, to taste life differently in comparison to others. Thank you for your insight. You're truly a gem.
I'm a teenage writer too, and this brought tears to my eyes. I have spent so many hours wasting time on *social media*. It didn't help me finish my stories. Now, seeing this, I want to write. I want to spend time to create. Memento mori, memento creare.
Dont be sad 😢, just love writting and the ideas in your head and heart. Keep that flame in your chest. I was a kid one day like you, almost die, found the passion for books and make worlds in my mind but then my brother pass and my girlfriend left me. That destroy éverthing in me. And my regrets is abandon my book. Today i came back and planning the wordbuilding and the big ideas in my. Maeby is my last year o years and i Wanted make something for me. This history, my book series, is the best off me. Think like that, dont let the world and the people contaming your soul anymore. Sorry for my english. My book is gona call The Orphans off Andrómeda 😂.... many years planning the concept and the world and i hope finish the first vol this year. And Epic history and the world i wanted to live. Maeby in another life😢
Thank you for this. I’ve been struggling to find time to write. I started working on my poem collection in 2021, but it remains unfinished because I’ve had so many responsibilities, like work, school, and other important matters. You reminded me that I need to finish my poem collection.
38 here and i start in my 21 , lost my brother and my girlfriend ten years ago and the world left me appart😢. But writting and that stuff is the only time when i smile or make me feel happy this years of pain. I hope soon make the first part of my saga. Never give up the dreams in your heart
@nyxcole9879 is very hard writting mistery or horror. Maeby supernatural stuffs? I di like cósmic horror. I writte scify blending whit fantasy tropes, but i wanted make other parts whit diferent tone and Setting in the same world, crazy wordbuilding and the reason why i am stuck recent years . Personal like what you referring ? Experiencies? Life? O just the characters? Sorry my english .
I am a teenage writer in high school that is extremely busy with school and clubs and also has some personal struggles, and writing helps with it, but I am so busy I don’t get to write as much as I do and when I technically get the chance I say I’ll do is later, this video has made me remember, remember that the most valuable thing is time
Also, as someone who is about to get an MFA in Creative Writing you DO NOT need a degree in English or writing in order to become a writer. You will learn PLENTY from looking at lectures on RUclips, you will learn the most by reading (within and outside your genre), being in a group (plenty you can find online), and...by writing. (Having a degree in it doesn't guarantee success either, PLENTY of writers do not have a degree in it). You want to be a writer? Then you write. You revise. You write some more. Yeah, if you pursue traditional publishing you'll get rejected probably hundreds of times, but so have some of the greatest writers of our time. Remember that publishing is a business, and every no that you get will get you an inch closer to that yes.

I'm not the only one here who forgets every moment I spend may be my last. I'm a teenager, and it seems like I have no set reason to think about the very truth, but I do: I'm Ukrainian. As you might know, war is going on on my land. Russian rocket, bomb or drone may, every second, lend on our house, destroying me and ruining my goals and dreams forever. Memento mori, memento creare. Thank you.
i don't fear deft as a born again Christian i know this life is only part of journey but i do wanted to do something great for god before i leave this earth my life has never been easy they say you have to have if hard to be a good writer but i disagree everyone has struggles a rich man could struggle with feeling like people only want him for what he can do for them the average man can feel insignificant the social light can be incredibly lonely even a parent of wonderful children struggle with feeling like they aren't good enough writer have their own set of struggles my point is don't define yourself my what others see my the worlds standers I'm nothing but my value is in serving Jesus sorry if this is to preachy for you but i feel its important enough to risk it
As a Christian I don't see death as the end. Yes I will die like every other person, but because someone else 2,000 years ago (Jesus Christ) died and rose again, so will I. As a writer too, I don't like telling people in my stories how they should live a certain way, but why they should live that way.
Amen brother. It is still the case though that this particular time on earth is still valuable, and that God's judgement upon you is predicated to the allotted time he has blessed you with. God bless.

How old are you friend? I'm eighteen, trying to plan my books, it's been challenging but fun

@@CapoCañoneri Yep that's what I'm doing!! :D
What I love about life is, no ones story is about me; and my story isn't about anyone else.
Thanks for this work of art, well said and wise.
Thank you for this. I’ve been struggling to find time to write. I started working on my poem collection in 2021, but it remains unfinished because I’ve had so many responsibilities, like work, school, and other important matters.
You reminded me that I need to finish my poem collection.
I promise to write stories with meaning!❤❤
This is what I write about
“Remember to create” things that have meaning and beauty❤❤💕💕
That my life will eventually end is my only comfort...
You are wise beyond your years. Keep going, and keep writing.
This was a great video ❤ Thank you for the reminder, and for giving this 39 year old writer some soul nourishing philosophy 🙂

@CapoCañoneri ❤️

@CapoCañoneri Yeah, I write fiction, thrillers, mystery, gothic horror, but it's pulling off my personal history in some aspects 🙂
@nyxcole9879 is very hard writting mistery or horror. Maeby supernatural stuffs?

This was very inspirational. I now have a reason to actually finish my project. Thanks!
I like how the video is composed

I feel the same feelings about being dead with unfinished novels which give me a different mindset and point of view on this topic!

Writting is the only thing god i can do😢.
Personally, if we're talking about two words that resonate with us very much, then those I reflect upon most are, Respice Finem.
Death is just a door that leads us back to you (God)

Thank you for this beautiful masterpiece.
