Thank you for Writeousness

The pen is mightier than the sword.

Especially if you poke somebody in the “I” with it.

 

I have been poked in the “I” many times by the words of writers. It seems to be the whole point of reading.

 

I am grateful for those who stand in writeousness, the ones who have the courage to do the write thing.

 

I admire those who take the time to write to politicians, editors, and leaders.

I admire those who research and disseminate information to the less educated. 

I admire those who connect us to each other by weaving language into reciprocal understanding for the masses.

 

To:

Those who share their own stories so that we may “own” ours.

Those who observe and paint pictures with words for the rest of us.

Those who sit alone for hours to formulate, share, and enhance awareness of the world around us.

 

Thank you.
