Growth


The word is Growth, and let me explain to you what I truly mean. Throughout the years in my life, I always knew deep down inside that I could be a writer. I would write these little stories from time to time. I would make them up as I go. I would just pick a favorite place of mine. And start moving my pen along the lines on the paper. I would not stop until I felt it was the best I could have written. I wrote about many things from bitter moments to fortunate endings. I had common mistakes as usual, but I would fix them along the way. To make it worth the read. I would improve my word choice and use commons like they should be used. With time I grew not only as strong writer. But with so much confidence in my writing. Every time I write now I can see how much I have grown from freshman year. Till now. Even my years in middle school. I just seem to understand what it is I am doing now. I can pick any topic and write about it in CSE format. I loved my classes through my years at LSH, not only have they taught me to write but have enhanced me to use more of me in my writing. I am someone who uses emotions in my work. And it can sometimes be dark. But yet enlightening.
