Why I write.
I write because ‘You’ exist.
If I were the only person in the world. ‘I’ would not exist.
‘I’ would not need a definition.
For an ‘I’ to exist there needs to be a ‘You’.
When there’s a ‘You’ and when there’s an ‘I’ — there is communication.
I write to express;
I write to fulfil a need which the existence of ‘You’ necessitated.
I write to be heard.
I write because I exist.
I write to hear myself think.
I like listening to clear ideas. I do not think clearly. My thoughts are always tangled.
I write to untangle.
Clarity of thought comes from forming connections between different ideas. Our brains cannot retain multiple ideas at the same time.
I write to see what I’m thinking;
To connect. To edit. To reiterate. To rethink.
To make sense of the chaos.
I write for silence.
I write for peace;
Until the next wave arrives.
