RE: Do you know why you write on Steemit?
I think in these very uncertain times many of us write to soothe our soul. We are distressed by what we see going on in the world today but feel helpless to change it. We are seeking a gentler more compassionate place to live but day after day things seem to be spiralling more out of control. Although we may not be able to write about all that troubles us the very act of writing helps to focus our attention in a different direction.
Writing plays a cathartic role and although is not directly changing the world, is helping us change, be better.
