For me, writing has always been the most effective way to express myself, a truth I’ve known since I was a little girl writing sorry letters to my mom. It’s no surprise that two of my favorite things are writing and water. Even though I’ve only recently started writing, I’ve always been drawn to the same feelings of peace and flow that I get from being near or in water.
Writing, like water, is my sanctuary. It is in this distraction-free, uninterrupted silence that I can get lost in my thoughts as my feelings flow like a calm river with soft currents–a gentle and steady release that brings me a sense of peace and clarity. It’s not just a hobby, but an essential practice that allows me to navigate the currents of my life and find a quiet clarity that I can’t find anywhere else.
