Why I Write
Why do I write? That's funny, I often ask myself the same thing! I remember being a little girl, writing as early as I could write...and probably even before then...not that it made any sense. As I get a little bit older, I realize that the biggest reason I write now is to get it out. I have lots of made up stories that I keep saying I'm going to write a book about, but that never happens. What I do write about is my feelings in a journal. I find that a lot of the time, you feel like you have no one to talk to and no one listens even when you do talk to people. So I started writing it down again, in a little book that I keep hidden from the rest of the world. Whether it be my feelings, or a thought I had, or even something to do with my anxiety or happiness or what have you. If I'm feeling a certain way about someone or something, I have that in my mind when I write it and getting it all out there on paper, even if that person doesn't read it, is a big help! Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. If I have any real strong feelings at all, or even scared, etc., I will write it down. It really does help!
