Why I Write?

Usually in High school until my around my junior year I was mainly doing papers and writing solely for school. I also only considered essays and formal papers as actually forms of writing. Later on during my junior year I started to write for myself as a way of expressing ideas and a way of communication, and those were mainly lyrics and short stories. Later on during my senior year after I had quite a bit of experience I started to realize that writing was more than poems, lyrics, papers, essays, etc. but rather anything that helped us organize your thoughts and express it using words even if it wasn’t publish or even shown to others. So I mainly wrote to organize my thoughts and express what I thought about some situations form my point of view.
