WHY I LIKE WRITING

I am not as verbally expressive as I'd like to be. Strangely, my brain thinks faster than my mouth can speak, so I always struggle to express myself. With writing however, I find my brain in synch with my fingers. Everything falls out effortlessly.

Writing is my magnificent escape. It is like going to a holiday destination for peace and quiet. I normally jet off into my own mind and sometimes write without thinking what I'm writing about. Like now, hoping it all makes sense. More often than not it does.

I use writing as therapy also. It's a way to unwind from challenging days and situations. While people might be content hitting a punch bag to relieve stress, I write to achieve the same. It's painless as well.

I'm off now, that's my therapy session done for the day.
