Writing allows you to SEE THOUGHTS, both yours and others'.
As you see them, they continue to take shape, so you rewrite.
As others read your thoughts and respond, your thoughts take on more shape, so you rewrite a bit more, representing your thinking even more clearly, and helping others to see it.
As you read your own thoughts and others', your brain actually changes.
Becoming aware of your readers helps you to communicate more clearly to them, and to yourself.
Writing and reading are uniquely human activities that allow people to communicate across oceans and centuries who wouldn't be able to otherwise.
- They are for enjoyment and growth.
- They are powerful
Please do tell a story of how and why something you read or wrote had a powerful effect on you. What did you read or write? What new direction did you take in thinking or in action because of it? Put your thoughts into a "comment" below.
