Oh, how I love the blank page. White and unadorned, fresh and clear. It is like a friend inviting me for a cup of hot tea, or an opponent challenging me to a game. Both fun and competitive it is mine to conquer every page that comes my way. And this I will do, with glee and severity. There may be blocks and stops along the way. I may sit around for days, wondering why I ever started writing on this stupid page. I may tear my hair out and scream at its smugly smiling yet utterly blank face. But in the end, I will conquer it. I will fill it and I will rule over it. It will obey my every word and record it at the same time. In the end I will write "The End" and then, that will be the end of it: I will have won.
