my response to the sort story/essay.
this is my thought procces trying to find the theme.


i am writing blindly

It is human impulse to write our feelings in times of peril. Why do we write though? We'll be dead and no one will read what we wrote. Is it the chance that someone may? Our need to write down our views and situations on the off chance someone will come across it? Talking or thinking about feelings doesn't leave any physical proof. We are exhilarated by the unknown; we want people to understand us, to familiarize themselves with what we're going through. The idea of our words living on when we've passed away is exciting. Everyone wants to live forever, perhaps not literally, but when we write something that is kept by others –and even if it isn't- we live on in our words.

as literature students, we do a lot of research about the role of an artist. The need to express ourselves literally in words makes us human. The skill is inbuilt for most...like untapped energy..and the purpose of our art may differ. Some just want to express, others yearn to be read, some would rather be understood only after death.
