Why Do I Write

"Why do I write?"Sounds more like "Why do I live?"I write because I have have no choiceOr rather because I have the willAnd the power to be able to expressMy emotion through the usage of This thing called "The English Language." I didn't wake up one day and simply decided thatI want to write. Instead, it was kind of likeMe being born.I simply had memories of writing as I hadMemories of living before I realized that thereWas anything special about it. But as to "why do I write?"My answer is the same to the question of "why do I live?"I live because my life is worth livingAnd so I write because my life is worth writing.I don't always write about actual life experiencesBut more so, the things I felt through different times of my life. I write because I'm afraid of never being able to share my experiences with othersOr to secretly tell to someone how I felt about a certain situationOr simply just to write something because I have nothing better to doThen to better myself as a person by writing and learning about who I am as a child of God.Just as I live to share my experiences and to tell people how I feel and because I have nothing better to doThan to better myself as a person and learn about who I am as a child of God.I write for the same reason I live, and I live for the same reason I write: And that is to make the most of my life.
