On Writing

Now, some of my thoughts about writing itself:

It is difficult to overstate the importance of writing. Through it we explain, persuade, and instruct. Together with thought, speech and action, it forms the platform from which our thoughts and characters are forged. Of the four, writing has the unique power to capture thoughts which can then be released time and time again, even in different ways, by his audience. From a gospel standpoint, writing has always been part of our duty to God, whether we record the sacred text of scripture for all humanity, or our own private record for posterity. I have a strong love of writing, and its power for good.
