Peace in the Written Word

Someone once asked me if I found writing a blog to be cathartic and I answered yes. But what I realized was that it isn't just writing a blog that provides me with some kind of emotional and intellectual release, but it's the written word in general.

Last night I wrote a lot. I wrote a variety of things: journal entries, imaginary letters that will never be sent, scenes... And once I was done, it felt like some huge weight was lifted of my chest. Things felt a little bit clearer in my head, a little more centered.

I guess the pen is mightier than the sword.
