| I began writing because my mind was racing.
Not only was it racing, but each thought that passed through
my mind was of extreme significance to the meaning of my life.
I was writing frantically, trying to keep up with my thoughts.
All my words were a part of a bigger puzzle and eventually,
something tremendous would happen, the answer to my longings
would materialize. I wrote because nobody cared or understood
me.
I would try to talk to people, but the words would fly
right over their head. All they noticed was that I was crazy.
Dad called it "verbal diarrhea." The shrinks called
it "grandiose delusions." If I was to save the would
with my truths, I had to write down everything. I was alone in
this battle. My words were my only friend. |
