Pain fuels a writer's soul. In a way, we are a tortured lot. People react to pain in different ways. Some cry endlessly, some shop endlessly. Some grin and bear it. Some get so mad and let the whole world know too. We write. We hurl our feelings onto paper. We let that piece of paper have it all. We rant and rave in written form. In silent screams and soundless howls from the depths of our souls that prose is in fact our salvation.
A writer's passions and experiences are the source for the torrents of creativity that gush from his spirit. If we were never to suffer the agony of lost love, if we never bristled against injustice, if we had no compassion for the wounded soul great works of literature would have never been birthed.
And finally, writing is cathartic. It soothes the wild beast raging in our breasts. At last, all is at peace like the sea after a violent storm.

Wow....this is very touching. Everything that you write really reaches into my heart and makes me think about stuff.
Have you been writing for a while now or just started this blog?
You should defintely write a book. I'd love to read it.
thanks, i've been writing my whole life..but never had the guts to take it seriously..or maybe it's just low self confidence. Now I just feel its time to pour out my heart and do what God created me to do.
