What is actually useful to write about?

As a writer you could write about literally anything.

But, what is actually useful to yourself and others to write about?

This is an entirely different question.

My thought is whatever helps you and who ever you are writing for to become a better person and less likely to kill themselves or others.

This is my thought.

So, this is my goal. I try to write things that will help people make their lives better in the short run and in the long run.

If a person is just trying to stay alive and keep from killing themselves and others any way you can help this person to save their own life and other lives might be useful in the short and long run.

So, how do you lift people's spirits enough to stay alive and how do you actually keep people alive?

You try to give them hope by what you write.

Otherwise, what really is the point of writing? mass suicide?

So, when I write or compile information it is with the hope of making the future better and not just a dystopian world where we all have no choice but to kill each other to survive even one more day.

For example, I'm not sure governments (the way they now exist are useful to the average person anymore).

So, it is my thought that revolutions likely will take place this century. They don't have to be bloody revolutions necessarily but could be more non-violent like the Social Revolution of the 1960s and 1970s worldwide where many less people died than would in an all out bloody revolutions down through history.

If you even understand our democracy that sprang out as an evolution of the Parliamentary Democracy of England, we argue instead of fight over issues that are important to us.

Arguing and demonstrating seems a more practical way than just arming ourselves and killing each other all the time we have any kind of disagreement, doesn't it?

So, as we write, What is useful to write about?

This is an important question that we all must answer every day if we are writers or people involved in media of any kind.
