Words

This new blog is dedicated to words.

Words are a part of everyone's lives, daily encounters, and relationships. For me, words are a relationship.

I can't pinpoint the exact moment when words became so important to me, but I know it was at a young age. I remember always writing. One of my punishments growing up was to write sentences over and over again like Bart Simpson does on the chalkboard, only mine were on lined paper. I learned that if I just joined all of the words together, it made it easier, and kind of like a game.

I would have, essentially, one incredibly long word that said something like, "IwillnotthrowmypianobooksonthefloorwhenIcomein,Iwillputthemwheretheygo."

I don't think that went over very well with my mom. I had to re-do a lot of those sentence punishments.

Words are still essential to my life. I based my education on words, and unfortunately, I have let myself become too busy to continue with my passion for words. Or else, I have let that be my excuse, so that I leave my past behind and trek out into the unknown.

After doing some thinking, I've realized that words fit wherever I go, because they are ingrained in my soul. I will always write. SometimesIwillwritelikeachild. And sometimes... I will write romantically, OR WITH EMPHASIS.

But I will always write.
