<p><br></p><p>Writing is a form of expression π. It is the easiest way to express yourself without talking to anyone; it is more preferable to talking π¬. Writing is not just about grammar or vocabulary π. It is an art π¨, a skill πͺ, and a means of connection π.</p><p><br></p><p>I remember back in my secondary school days, if I felt really hurt and I had no one to talk to, I would just write it down π, and yes, I had no friends π€·ββοΈ. Most of my written work is out of expression; I write based on how I feel π. I prefer writing when I'm in that particular situation at that particular time; it gives me room to pour out more and express myself very well π«.</p><p><br></p><p>To me, writing has more to do with passion π₯; writing is something you have passion for and still decide to better and enhance your skill πͺ. My writing has a lot to do with my personal life; I don't just wake up one morning, surf through the internet π, and look for what to write. I write based on what I'm doing, how I feel, or what I know π€.</p><p><br></p><p>Writing has had a lot of impact on me; when I write, I feel more comfortable π, and I'm able to express myself better π¬. Even in reality, I express myself better on texting and chats π± than in physical conversations π¬.</p><p><br></p><p>Why do I write ? π€</p><p>βοΈI write to speak to others π¬</p><p>βοΈI write to remember π</p><p>βοΈI write to connect with others π</p><p>βοΈI write to feel π</p><p>βοΈI write to heal πββοΈ</p><p>βοΈI write to convey messages to people π¨</p><p>βοΈI write to affect people's lives π</p><p><br></p><p>Writing is not something I do; it's a part of who I am π.</p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.

and insightfulness of their content.
