A writer's "emotions" inevitably appear in their writing.

When reading a text,
the writer's emotions become visible.

From writing that gives instructions like
"please do this, please do that"
with excessive politeness,

one can see the writer's anxiety and lack of confidence.

From writing that repeatedly presses the reader with questions like
"Doesn't this happen to you?"
"Don't you think so too?"
"You have this happen too, right?!"

the writer's
"Understand me!"
"Look at me more!"

"Why don't you understand?" the writer's need for approval and impatienceoverflow.

When you post, but for some reason it doesn't go well. When writing becomes painful.

When you post, but for some reason it doesn't go well.
The more you write, the more painful it becomes.

At times like that,
anxiety, dissatisfaction, impatience, anger.
Your heart might be dominated by "negative emotions."

If you notice your emotions, your values will come into view.

It's okay.
Every emotion is an important part of yourself.

If you carefully dig deeper from there,
you will see what you truly value.


Impatience might be because "something you want to cherish hasn't been achieved."

Anxiety or dissatisfaction might be because "the values you want to cherish are not being fulfilled."

If you notice your own emotions
and can put into words what you truly value,

you will be able to write more "selfless" texts than you do now.
