I write to live

June 22, 2013

If you asked me why I write,

I would say:

I write to live.

For writing allows me to 

help,

understand,

communicate

.

Writing allows me to touch

the hearts of other.

Impact them in ways,

you could only imagine

.

Writing allows me to see,

like a lighthouse on the shore,

it guides me from the sea,

so I can perceive more

.

Writing allows me to speak

words, that can create change

in people's lives,

in the world

.

Writing allows me to do more

than merely exist.

Writing allows me

to fully live.
