Welcome to Write2Speak a poetry blog. At the moment I am traveling a path that started 20 years ago when I first picked up a pen-to write. How many of us had to write journal entries in school and hated it? Well, the journal entries of my academic career fed me reasons to write when I had ideas of my own but still challenged me to write. There have been times when I didn't write at all and those times left me feeling disconnected with myself. I guess writing is that connection that links all humanity. Perhaps I'm living in a box but I haven't encountered anyone that doesn't read or write. Now inject some creativity and you have an author, poet, journalist etc. I subscribe to the title of poet and the rebirth of my creative writing is almost 1 year old. I believe we all have been given a gift, it's our choice to exercise that gift to balance everyday life whether you are an artist, a writer, a photographer and so on, we all must tap back in to what we were once told "couldn't and wouldn't make any money," thats a phrase that almost killed my natural desire to write. My happiness doesn't have a price tag. I enjoy just being, observing and writing. Someone actually a group of someones encouraged me to keep going as I made my first steps back to writing. So whatever it is that you do -- do it. Don't let what others say stop you from putting your dream into motion. Here's mine --- Write2Speak a poetry blog's purpose is to highlight spoken word poetry from my perspective. I encourage you to express your thoughts and exercise your writes!
Until we write again,
