Why I Write.
I write to clear my head.
As my hand moves across the paper, the world’s distractions are filtered out, priming the pump for my own thoughts.
Writing is a safe place to express what I’m thinking honestly, boldly, and unapologetically. It gives me space to process my experiences as I explore my world. It leads me to a deeper understanding of past hurts and the discovery of new truths.
I write to honor the woman God created me to be. To tap into my wisdom and power. To comfort and support.
I write to give voice to the little girl inside of me who often feels silenced.
I write to empower.
But more than anything, I write because words have the power to heal, nurture, and inspire.
