We write for a number of reasons. We write to get our ideas out, to get our imagination and what we want to say from our minds into pen and unto paper, we write to express ourselves. We write so we would be able to relate to others exactly what we want them to hear, and what may be going through our minds.

There are persons who if you speak with them directly would not be able to say what they want accurately and writing helps get the message across just the way you want it to be heard from the listener’s side. Sometimes we speak and we make mistakes and we can’t take back what was said, we can say sorry or say that was not what we intended to say but the person already heard it and can take it the wrong way, but if you write you can always erase, backspace or cross off what was written and rewrite what you initially wanted to say.

We write to keep records or to remind us of stuff we may forget. Our brains, which can be linked to a flash drive or computer sometimes crash or goes blank and we need a boost or technician to remind us of things. Writing is like our Technician we can go back to our recorded documents and refresh ourselves with what we wrote and get back on track with what we have written a while aback.

We also write to keep stories or important information from our past, alive. Stories from our dead ancestors can be carried from generation to generation and we can see through their eyes what transpired back then even if we weren’t actually there.
