Dearest empath, journeyman, creator. Dear soft hearted adventurous spirit. Dear imagination inclined writer,

To all of you who anxiously jot down a moment or phrase that has stolen a place in your heart. I see you.

Those of you waking in the night to a thought or melody that must be heard, thank you.

I recognize the excitement in your bloodshot, insomniac, coffee fueled eyes, and I can’t wait to read what you’ve created.

Thank you for journaling, reshaping and pouring your hearts out on paper. Thank you for preparing and offering it to us like a fabulous feast, shared with family.

Your work, your words, your experiences - move me.

You touch places and emotions in me that I thought I had lost. Some I have never had before.

Never had the notion, until you gave it to me. Thank you.

This letter was inspired by another writer, Caroline.

Although, truth be told, all of my aquatintences here, have aided me, encouraged me, critiqued me, praised me and most of all they opened their lives, flaws and all, to me.

Revealing their worlds and the adventures of the worlds living in their minds .

Wow- thank you!

I hope this letter finds you well and happy, and gives you a spark. Knowing that your efforts are more than words on paper.

They have developed a life of their own, sustaining another soul.

Thank you.

Until we read again,

K

    That was lovely! Thanks for sharing. ☺️

  • Thank you so much for writing this. I think you just gave voice to every vocal creator

  • I don't know that I've been introduced to or read Caroline's work. But I know that I could send copies of this letter (as well as the one Handsomelouiithepoet wrote) to a whole host of writers on this site (including you), & mean every word of it. Beautiful, both in sentiment & writing.
