Writing is like a mirror.
Writing is like a mirror because it is a reflection of ourselves. In our writing, we can see the deepest parts of ourselves revealed, while readers also gain perspective into our thoughts. Like a mirror, writing forces us to analyze ourselves in a critical way. At the same time, we can also admire things about ourselves through our writing. In a mirror, we are faced with both the positive and negative aspects of ourselves and driven to improve. The same is true in our writing, as we gradually strive to improve upon our strengths.

I feel the EXACT same way. Writing is a way for me to inject my thought, beliefs, and emotions into another mind. It enables me to reach out to people. You pretty much described my entire writing process!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely loved this one the best. very thoughful. i loved that you compared it in more than one aspect. great job =]
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with this also. We look at oursleves everyday in the mirror. Sometimes we like what we see and sometimes we don't. I feel the same way about my wrting. Our opinions of ourselves and the world around us change constantly, influencing our writing. I like this comparison alot.
