RE: NOTES FROM AN AMATEUR WRITER #46 - Why Do I Write?

in #writing7 years ago

Thank you. To me imagination is a central part of whatever it is to be truly free. It's in us, we own it, regardless of what is going on outside of us. It can be therapeutic, but it doesn't have to be. It can just be worlds we create, people we become, dreams we test out. And that can bleed over into this 'reality' (I believe). It is a place of joy. And that is a good thing to have leak out and become a part of our everyday lives. There is something about that childhood state. That true belief that one can create their own reality and enter into it and play with and mould the forces of reality. It's where all good stories come from.

And like you allude to, it can make for a healthier adulthood. Children are wise. They know what's going on. And so that is why I write :)

I appreciate your comment.
