Writing is the open line to my authentic self. Talking is open to misinterpretation. Talking leads me into statements that I cannot support. Talking loses my point and my focus. Writing keeps me true.
I am neither a good writer nor a bad writer. I am a writer. It is how I reflect on my experiences and how I remember how things were at the time. It is how I work through my feelings and discover how I am feeling. It is how I make an argument most convincingly, and it is also how I mend fences after an argument.
Through writing I learn and through writing I teach.
Through writing, I live.
