[ArticleImageHyperLink] Writing is the world to me Thursday, October 07, 2010 By Michelle Robinson Advertising A bald man once said, “Grammar is like porn to me.”  I do not feel anywhere near that level for grammar, but I can kind of relate to this bald man’s affection.  Except my affection comes from the love of writing.  To some, writing is a task that must be performed to excel in school. Writing to me, though, is so much more than something I have to do; it is something I want to do.  Writing is my personal therapy session.  Whenever, I have an emotion that is so overwhelming that I cannot control it, I grab a pen and paper and let my thoughts damage a white slate. No one will ever see what I write because it is personal to me. It allows me to express my true self without being judged. I enjoy writing about the things that occur during the day. I like inventing quotes (not for newspaper) and stories to take me away from reality, if only for a while.  In a nut shell, a pen and paper are my cheap therapists. They can take me out of my life, and they keep me sane in it.  Writing is not my porn; writing is my world.
