Why I Write

 

Some of you may wonder


why is it I write or try to


every day. Wether you


like my work or think it


sucks, either way chances


are I will never get paid for


it or become famous. Likely-


hood is I shall never make


a living at what I do. So,


what’s the use, why bother?


Well my friends, save your


criticism or praise. Writing


gives me pleasure. If I have


something to say, I shall


indulge. I’ll never get paid


or become renowned for


eating or breathing either.


My laughter, and tears,


my napping or waking


will never pay the rent.


I can’t sing a lick, nor


can I dance or tell jokes


worth a shit, but I con-


tinue because that’s


what we humans are


born to do. I have always


been able to get along


in life by doing what was


necessary for me. I got


paid for some of the most


mundane and useless


jobs available. So, I


suppose writing for free


makes up for the time I


wasted making a living.


And with that, in your


reading what I have to


say for free puts you


ahead of the game as


well. You’re welcome!
