Essays: Why I write

The reasons I write are simple to me . When I write I am not alone . My mind races through the worm holes of space , sometime to future events and some in the past . I write to remember and to say the things in text , that I often can not express out loud in voice .

I write because it envelopes me , a gesture of hope and stress relief . To search and explore the inner most thoughts of my mind . To take the adventure to a place I have never been . To express my self and keep my soul in check .

I write of my experiences of life , how I see the world . No matter who reads or disagrees with what I think . I am a individual , a person of beliefs , a sensuous Man that is passionate about my life and surroundings .

I write because I am curious , about things I do not understand . To Aline things in my head in a order to at least try . I write because it is my driving force , a new way to take on challenges . To make me a more interesting person and show people what it is like to be me .

I write because I am a simple man , no glory here to be told . No best sellers on my growing portfolio , just words in an endless sea of others . Shaped and made whole by others that read in to what they wish to see .
