Attached

Sometimes when I write things, I get attached to the way I wrote it the first time. When I go back to edit, I more or less keep the structure and just maybe change out some word choices or try to add in a new idea in a way that doesn’t require me to completely rewrite it in an efficient way. Maybe it’s laziness, or maybe arrogance, or maybe there’s just a particular way that I like things to sound, at least in my head. In any case, here’s to letting go of holding on.
