How would you complete the sentence?

Your first statement is just wonderful – I’ve really enjoyed following your creative journey!
Writing is life.

We really do express the deepest part of ourselves and it is a scary thing to do! But also very empowering.
…sometimes relieves a pressure.
Especially after a rough day!
…enriches my world.
makes me happy.
Me, too!

Me, too.
Who knew she was hiding inside?
… clears my mind and relaxes me
… teaches me things I never knew about myself, and probably never would have known otherwise.

Love this
So poetic and so you.
Your work is beautiful and I look forward to your next piece.
…gives voices to my characters (and then they take over
)
Don’t you just love it when they wake you up in the middle of the night?
frees me.
…made me realize what makes me truly happy!
Yay!
Writing gives me the opportunity to voice what I cannot speak verbally.
Keep writing!
Writing gives me the opportunity to step out of reality and have those “Bruce Willis- Die Hard” adventures.
Writing puts my voice- a voice seldom heard and seldom listened to- out there with a chance to be heard.
…makes me real.
So beautiful.
…is when/where I know I am doing my life’s purpose.
-is a place where I can get my thoughts out of my head, where they make little sense, so I can move on with my day.
-gives expression to the images in my mind.
-is missed in my life.
Come May 25 that third one will become a thing of the past.
