A (naturally gifted) writer writes
Just to express his feelings
A (child) writer writes
Just because the teacher said so
A (competitive) writer writes
Just because it's the cool thing to do
A (first time) writer writes
Just to cope with the extreme emotions
A (professional) writer writes
Just to make a living
A (repetitive) writer writes
Just to finesse the skills
And yet,
A writer writes
Just because it's "just."

That has to be one of the truest things ever said and I never thought about it that way before. I'm a first time writer and it's really my only way to cope with my emotions. Thanx for writing this and making me think.
