Why I Write About Everything

Thu, 08/15/2013 - 14:38 -- dunnis

As life goes on I’m realizing that you can’t live without happiness, without a simple smile, or a great write every once in a while. Writing comes really easy to me, I mean I could be in the middle of nowhere and I could still find something to humor me; and this is why I write.     

I write when I am in high spirits. I write when I’m lonely. I write while I watch TV or listen to music because one word or lyric can enlighten me. I write to cover up my inner feelings, but they always seem to come out anyways. I write to have fun. I write for someone else’s pleasure. I write to make others feel good about their weird jokes. I write to relieve stress. I write until my cheeks turn rosy and my tummy aches. I write to get over anger. I write to make others cheerful. I write to be different. I write at the wrong times. I write at the right times. I write because I don’t know what else to do. I write when I can’t come up with words to say and I’m speechless. I write in the moment. I write about something that happened in my past. I write when I think about my future. I write because I’m cool. I write because I can sometimes be timid. I write with friends, family, and my dog. Believe me when I say I can write for hours when I’m with my dog. I write while thinking, even though that makes thinking tough for me. I write to make others smile because that could be just what they needed. That could even save a life. I write because I am blessed to have a sense of humor, and I’m thankful for that.  I write to escape from horrific days. I write for attention. I write when I feel like giving up. I write when I think of the difficult things I thought I couldn't’t accomplish and I did it. I write knowing life goes on and everything will be okay. I write at my childhood memories and I write at my foolish mistakes. Even though we as people are suppose to learn from our mistakes, I write because I have repeated the same mistakes more than once and my pool of mistake has not been drained yet. I write to make-up with friends, it’s a way I admit that I’m wrong; well maybe just kind of wrong. I write at home, school, outside, inside, and pretty much everywhere. I write to be strong. I heard while writing you can lose calories, so of course I write for my health. I write to cover up tears and I write while crying. It gives me a sense of relief. I write when people are discourteous because I know something terrible will come for them and I mean that in a polite way.

I simply write because it’s something I’m good at doing and I just wouldn't’t be me if I didn't’t write.
