More Than Nothing

I tried to write about politics, but I didn't feel qualified.

I tried to write about how current events made me feel, but I felt guilty for not doing enough to change them.

I tried to write with outrage, but I was embarrassed that I didn't back it up with action.

I tried to write about dismay, but it made me feel weak.

I tried to write about disbelief, but it made me feel foolish for believing.

I tried to write about admiring certain people, but it felt inadequate.

I tried to write about being disgusted by other people, but it felt ineffective.

And then I just decided to write--write something. Because something is at least more than nothing...
