Why do I write?
I’ve thought about this question for some time,
and the answer seems to keep evolving as I do.
But here are some thoughts:
I write to heal;
to work through emotions and my thoughts.
I write as part of my spiritual practice;
a means of opening and attuning to the Now
and engaging in its creative Flow.
I write in hopes of inspiring and empowering other people;
rooting out my own fear,
and giving other permission to do the same.
I write in hopes of teaching;
passing on what I’ve learned.
I write in order to attest to
the Beauty (and I guess pain too)
that I see in the world.
I guess I’ve found that the writing process,
like life,
is the process of becoming more
Conscious.
