The Reason I Write

Writing is inspiring...
Writing is transforming...
Writing does not hate or cause disruption...
Writing is not troublesome...
Writing is expressing rather than impressing...

The reason I write is for you and me...
To connect...
To build...
To encourage...
To respect...
To combine...
To reach out people everywhere...

I write to inform you of a thousand words...
'bout life and its grace; relationship and its worth...
I write not to compete or be identified...
I'm here to show writing a living sacrifice...
Though I'm not on top of the list...
Just a smile on your cheek for me is life changing...

Ang aking pagsulat... My writing...
Aking instrumento... My instrument...
To make the world a better place...

Arden Gopela December 9, 2013 at 12:52 AM Writing is sacred. One stroke is like a fire. It could burn a reader's perspective and beliefs if we write without taking things into consideration. Everyone is responsible of what we write. And to make it a masterpiece, we should always write from the heart - for the common good. Love,love,love! :-) - Den
