Why Write? Why Not?
Well here goes something...
This has really been a long time coming. Why write? What is the purpose?
Writing has any purpose that motivates it. I want to write because I am naturally a human of many words who believes that "The pen is mightier than the sword." Writing is a form of expression that is often forgotten about at least in the real purposes. The type of writing I am challenging within myself is that of reality. Reality is something we all chase until we catch it, then hiding behind the bush of Fantasy. I am today, November 27th of the year 2017, challenging myself to write real. One of the best quotes I have heard about writing goes "Write hard and clear about what hurts." Authored by the well-known Ernest Hemingway.
Yes, I discovered my favorite quote on Pinterest alike everyone else. This particular find sparked a wildfire with ambition. That is one important thing about writing. We always have something to say may not always knowing how to say it in the best way, often keeping quiet. Leading to further suppression of deeper thoughts that can inspire learning in one's self and the audience. It is eternally there, until one day, granted an opportunity, it takes flight. It is completely understandable that in our modern society, thoughts and observations are kept still with worries of stepping on toes or staring down the barrel of a gun. Unfortunately, not enough reality is brought into the light because its hidden. Obvious much? Yes it is, I felt as though personal contributions to the universe were pointless and unnecessary. If so, how did Einstein become well-known? By keeping his bright mind in a dark cellar right? Wrong. Think about it.
Writing is therapeutic for the brain. Simply googling the affect of writing will do. UCLA psychologists, conducting brain imaging regarding social agility of the brain, in 2010 concluded that writing or even verbal expression stimulates the Amygdala in the brain lessening the intensity of anger, sadness and pain. As a result, an activation of thinking. Now who couldn't use a little less stress, anger and sadness in their lives? Personally, I felt a strangulation in my intelligence, until now.
If somewhere, even some time today you've had a thought or any molecular placement of letters and words, share. The universe is amounting space and time anxiously awaiting words from its inhabitants. Go do and do it well. Write. Why not?
