Writing is a must, mustn't it? : Exploring the Importance of Writing in Today's World"

WRITING IS A MUST, MUSTN'T IT?

"art is to look at not to criticize" -Edgar

Writing is a form of art focused on expression and not perfection as we assume. 
I could write: "I fell" or "I stumbled" or"I suffered a painful tripping" all is the same and the diversity is what makes up writing. Whether I choose a poem, or tell you a story or I write a word, I have written and I am a writer.

Writing is both an art and a craft, requiring creativity, skill, and patience. You have to be patient with yourself, to forgive your flutters, write yourself a letter, look beyond the magazines and write because you have to. I posit that it is a must for humanity to write. The newspaper tells you a story, you listen to music (written lyrics) you go to school, visit blogs, surf google for written documents. Even AI writes. Writing is a must, I insist. In colonial Africa, many villages and tribes were only discovered in the books written by colonial masters.We must write, it is a channel of multiplication, resonance and inheritance. 

Dear reader, write! Do not mind the language, the pattern, or the rules. Write because you must express yourself and be passed on to other generations.
