[381] Why We Write

I write what I deny to think in my own head. I surprise myself as I watch these thoughts become real. It feels like someone else holds the pen and writes things I didn’t know I feel. He writes all that I thought I conquered but all I did was, lose to it.⁣
⁣
It’s a reminder of all the things we don’t tell ourselves to keep up the lie of sanity. It’s a remembrance of all that we don’t know about ourselves, that our shadow hides. These writings are the brush with insanity that I am denied.

    This is exactly how I feel when I journal. In fact, I liken journalling to learning how to listen to yourself. Great post. Thanks for sharing!
