    I believe, people like us--the ones who felt like they need to write a book of their own--get this kind of feeling that you can do what your favorite writers do.

    Well it is only fair to use language we speak in different ways to experience the impossible.
    By this I mean the way we talk does not always tell us a great deal about our inner sense because while we talk we also listen to others and we are not ready to listen to ourselves yet until writing kicks in.
    So to read a book is part of that process to want to write. and the more we write and write well and the more we voice ourselves to the outside world.
    I believe it is inherent in us to write it comes to us naturally and therefore we explore to our advantage and we ensure that others share it with us.
    I have to admit that even before I even picked a book and read it for myself it was already in me to write poetry for example.
    Books are a human legacy that we are very complex people with needs and desires that are only fully explored and developed when we take pen to paper and write.
    It is a whole other world different from reality in that we are fully in control and for the first time fully immersed in our thoughts and are able to extract meanings from our inner minds.
    To write is to discover new ventures reality could only produce in fractions of it.
    Ideally I would write in order to imagine a world I would aspire to live in. I would want to write to contribute to a better reality and that is life. It would make more sense.
