Why I Write

Share to help

By Marlene McPhersonPublished about a year ago 1 min read
Old school way of writing

Why I write

I write to make my thoughts known

I write to create changes in the mindset of youngsters

I write to be a voice for the voiceless

I write to stimulate discussions with the experts and intellectual

I write for persons who are muted 'cause of their position

I write for the abused who have to be submissive and subdued

I write on behalf of the illiterates

I write to air the musings of the fatherless and motherless

I write about the pains of suffering and the joys of triumphant

I write to help, to create awareness, and to share

I write to get some meaning to life, death, and strange phenomenon

I write to praise God Almighty

I write to warn of the devil’s plan

I write to support the weak and suffering

I write on behalf of the mentally challenged

I write to share God’s Word

1 write to share Jesus' sacrificial love that He has for us
