"We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect." -Anais Nin. Writing is a form of expression, things people might not be able to speak but perhaps explain it through words, on paper. I think of writing as a way to get my thoughts out, and maybe tell myself things I do or don't want to hear. I write in a journal, about my day, my feelings, my mood, what went wrong, what went right. Maybe I even write to talk to myself, perhaps I'm having a bad day, I write to tell myself that it's going to get better. I write down things that I don't say aloud. Writing for some people can be an escape from reality, or "your own private world" - George Orwell

Of course, we eventually will come back, but sometimes that break just for you and your thoughts could be relieving or satisfying. I like to write, because if you are making a fiction novel or writing anything that comes to your mind, it gives you a chance to be someone else for a while. Whether it's a character that you made up or someone you might want to become later on in life, maybe even have a character you wish you were sometimes. Again, writing is a form of expression. You express your feelings. Writing could be to inform someone else about your opinion, or simply to tell someone about "why you write." For people who don't talk much, writing gives them a way to inform, express, and experience connections with others. I write simply to speak my mind. Never to forget certain memories, or to look back on who I used to be and how I used to feel. I don't always choose to write. Sometimes I am assigned to write, for homework or work, or because I just have to.
