I choose to write

- so that I may face my truths

- because conceptualizing my thoughts forces me to push aside the veil guarding my

innermost self.

- when the world inspires me to create my own

Writing is visible organization of thought.

Writing is original representation of thought.

Writing is thought.

and sometimes, I write because I think too damn much.

@isthatphill - the question is simple but extremely effective, thank you for such a thought provoking challenge.
