Because I love writing by Wendy G Why Do You Write? writing prompt entry |
Why does one breathe? Or think, feel, know? One simply does. And one must. So it is with writing. I write from my heart, so that I will remember, think and reflect, consider what's important about life and living, about death and dying, about emotional highs and lows, about nature, about our world, relationships, people, about the meaning of these, and about God. ..... Writing helps me to be curious, watchful, alert, seeing everything, everyone, through the lens of creativity, searching for original thoughts to express in a fresh way our common human experience in even quite mundane things. ..... Writing helps me to notice and appreciate the value in life's special moments, large and small, to look for the humour in frustrations and difficulties. It helps me to persevere through pain or distress. It gives perspective, adds insight. ..... I write to communicate. My written words will be my legacy. I hope family will realise how deeply precious they are to me. My writing will add depth and insight to their understanding. I hope they will share my stories, pass them through the generations. ..... I write to share with friends, hoping that my words may be helpful, or humorous, inspiring, thoughtful, or challenging. I am a frail human being, but my desire is to be caring and compassionate. If even one other is encouraged to follow that path, then that too is a legacy. ..... I write to learn, to develop, to grow until the last page of my book of life. Expressing life in words is challenging and humbling. Writing makes one very vulnerable. ..... I write also to honour my heavenly Father. I am willing to share that my experience of Him as a perfect and loving Father has been profound. God knows the power of words. It was through His Word that all things came into being. Isn't Jesus the Word of Life? ..... The written word has power to transform lives. Yes, to bring peace, comfort, love, forgiveness, joy, life ... both to the writer, and to the reader. Indeed, the living pen is mightier than the deathly sword. .... Therefore I write ... because I must, and ... because I love writing.
