Why I Write


I write not to express a feeling, to be acknowledged, or to be praised, but I write only to expand the mind of my readers. I write for hope; the hope to evolve the reader into the thinker.

The thinkers are the true poets in our world for they are where it all begins. The thinker evolves into the inventors or the leaders, and they are the ones that gives the inspiration, if not the birth to me, the writer. I am the one who then contributes my thoughts to the readers and the cycle contiues.

That is why I write; to set the foundation for the readers to evolve and give inspiration to the next generation of us writers.
