One of my great passions in life is writing. I have enjoyed writing ever since I had to write papers in school. I really loved my college classes which did not have tests but rather graded based on term papers. I have loved writing so much that at this very moment I have 2 blogs, a journal, and a book presently in process. I have written 4 books in the past several years, however none of them has been published. I have just never taken the time or effort to submit a manuscript to a publisher.
My love for writing comes from my love for words. I love to turn a phrase or cleverly use a word where it would have deeper meaning than just its surface. Words have power and force to them few others things can boast. They have the power to build and destroy. They can brighten a day or ruin a life. Words convey more than ink on a page but rather ideas, passions, and dreams. Words are the foundation of a culture and a people. It is in the pages of history where the most important of all concepts are recorded. The usage and forms of words are indicative of the way a people live and function.
When a people lose their language and their words lose their significance then they lose a lot of their identity. So I write. I write for the good of my mental state.I write for the good of my family and I write for the good of the ones I love and care about. I write!
But you don't play Scrabble...interesting...:)
