❛Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.❜
For me, writing is about understanding myself and the world around me better and everyone in it. By expressing my own thoughts and feelings I understand myself better, by expressing ideas I have interacted with I understand the world better.
By doing all these things and more I find myself healed over and over again in my life and I become wiser for everyone to talk to who needs to along the way.
There are no answers much usually unless you ask questions. So, if you don't ask questions how can you know anything?
However, there is a lot to be said for just being. Looking outside at hummingbirds drinking from flowers. Hearing the screech of hawks and eagles as they squabble and build nests, listening to the birds as they migrate here and there, watching the ocean as it boils and the waves break in various stages throughout the year, watching the beach sand come in the spring and summers only to be washed away during the winter storms, watching the kelp beds in Spring and summer only to be brought on shore during the winter storms. Life has it's cycles and all these things teach us the rhythm of the natural world around us that heals us as humans all over the world.
