I don't know why I've been writing it all down. I know that my mind feels much clearer when it's all left out on paper. I keep writing because the thoughts keep rushing in like the tide on the east coast and I prefer quiet swimming pools rather than oceans and violent undertow.
Maybe I write it all down because I want to create something beautiful out of the mess that fills my mind. I know people often relate their writing to an "outlet" but I prefer to call it a "power converter." I write because I want to turn these thoughts into something more bearable.
