Why I Write


Though it began in the third grade as only a few short stories written solely for the fun of it, writing has escalated to an art that provides me with guidance. 

The raw beauties of life lie within the practice of writing-- the truth is revealed and immutable.

By writing, I learn the meaning of my thoughts and intentions of my own subconscious actions. 

I gain endless insight from the writing of others as well. 

Writing is merely a form of art that allows us to let go and find ourselves in the same instance.

Writing has helped me to understand myself. It keeps me more in touch with my subconscious mind.
