The Self Healing Of Writing

Monday, January 21, 2008

So many people I know ask me why I love writing. It started when I was young. It was a way for me to not feel that I was alone. I also realized that whenever I was sad ore angry, writing was a way for me to handle that .Sometimes when we can’t find the words it is easier to put those words into print. We just might have a difficult time talking to people for various reasons but writing can be easier. I have always loved writing it has been a way for me to express myself. Writing is a wonderful tool that everybody possesses .You can write about how you feel ore let your imagination run wild and create the most amazing stories. So many people tell me that no I can’t write , I don’t know what to write about , if I write it will only look silly. Writing is first of all for you and then for other people if you decide that. It does not matter what it looks like when it is for you because you are the only one who is supposed to read it. If you are writing to someone else and you feel that you can’t put the words together correct, then there are several guidelines and help for writers on the internet. I see writing as something really important and something that I could not live without. If you are a beginner to the art of writing but see that it is something that you want to continue with, then do that. Start by making a daily journal of your life and soon you will do that without thinking. Just write about what is on your mind at the moment and further ahead you can go back and reflect on those thoughts. That is an important thing because a lot of times that can help us understand ourselves and how we think and work as a person. I would highly recommend that everybody writes something at least once in awhile. And if you have it difficult to talk to a certain person, write them a letter instead. Maybe you have not told your wife/husband lately how much you truly care about them? Write them a letter explaining how much you really appreciate them and how much they mean to you. Ore if you have a friend ore family member that you have lost contact with write them a letter explaining how sorry you are and that you wish to have them back in your life again. Sometimes when we have a difficult time talking to someone we care about that causes us to drift apart instead. It is important to let the other ones know that they are still in our hearts.Writing is a powerful tool that I think that everyone should enjoy.
