Why

I realized that I quite like writing.

I’ve been doing more of it each year.

It’s because I enjoy thinking.

In fact, I spend a lot of time thinking.

Well if I think so much, then I might as well write.

Actually - writing is just a structured way of thinking.

But thoughts are forgiving, written words are not.

Thoughts are fleeting, writing is final.

Thoughts permit reasoning gaps, writing demands clarity.

The other day I was writing, and I noticed some open gaps.

So I went and researched the missing link.

Now the reference was in place and the logic was sound.

Writing illuminated the missing piece.

I want to use this as a tool to sharpen my thinking and logic.

And I hope to improve over time.
