Writing From Within
If it arrests our soul and energizes our spirit,
we should be WRITING it.
If it captures our mind and refuses to let us go,
Write it.
If it longs to be united with us, permeating our entire being,
Write it.
If it penetrates our hearts and seizes our imagination,
Write it.
If it wants to take us along for the ride, whether or not we know where it is going,
Write it.
If it wants to go places we've never been, to experience things we've never felt or seen,
Write it
If it wants to use us as its conduit to navigate its waters, some of which are treacherous and virgin to mortals,
Write it.
If its in our blood, stamped into our DNA, and inspires us, we must document it, write it for now and forevermore, to offer light and inspiration to those who come after us.
