I Write, Therefore I Am 11/06/2008
2 Comments
 

If I didn't write for a living, I would write for a living. I think I have thunk it through and that is my conclusion. Writing has always been more than a parnassah--its a passion, a journey into self. I journal regularly; it helps me get clarity, connect to Hashem (God), and sort things out that are troubling me. As I write, the words pave a path for my mind and heart to dance across, alleviating tension, worry, and fear. When I journal, I most often end off with a tefillah (prayer). I am grateful that my work is so closely aligned with my love and my mission. Write on!

I just found your site, well done. :-)
While I don't write professionally, I completely understand what you mean by this. I find that when my mind is a mess I can untangle it with a paper and pen (or a keyboard, as the case may be;).

I also wanted to tell you that I read your writings, particularly Green Fences, and seriously enjoy it. :-)
Keep it up!
