Written words and communication is very important, I can express how I feel, think or understand things around me if I put them into writing. Putting thoughts on a paper helps me to solve my problems or provides me with a sense of peace. Writing journals and diaries are ways of documenting personal memories.
Sometimes my whole purpose of writing is to effect change in my life or that of my readers I blog about controversial issues like abortion, gay and other pressing issues when i do this am using persuasive words to change the mind of my readers. This might sound weird but the truth is that sometimes I just write for attention, I will blog about a particular topic just to make me famous.
Educational purpose is another reason why I might write sometimes, this is sometimes a class requirement. I might write for various reason but the underlying fact is we all have a story to share and writing gives us the opportunity to do just that.
