A Writer's Work

June 13th 2008 23:14
What good is writing?

Let me tell you what writing is good for.

Writing is good for providing people with entertainment. It's good for telling stories, for showing metaphors. Good for thought and comparisons, diagnosis. Or good for pure fun. For an escape from reality (thank you Queen). A way to get away.

Writing is also a good way to be noticed. Writing is good for gaining awareness. Writing is good for a lot of things. It's good for getting your opinion out. For pointing out the nitty gritty and challenging society's rules and thoughts, opinions and stigmas. For going against the status quo.


Both of those paragraphs describe why I write. And guess what? I think it's damn well about time I start doing some writing to raise awareness. Because I'm sick of watching people destroy the earth. I'm sick of watching us all ruin this planet. And I'm sick of watching humanity make itself extinct.

How am I going to do anything?

With much hard work and difficulty. But I will. That, my friends, is a promise. One I will keep, unless I die tonight.

Exactly.

I want to actually make a difference to this planet. And I'm hoping that people will help me along the way. People here, and in real life, and other places, you know?

Supporters.
