A well-known author stated that the job of a writer is to inspire, educate, and/or entertain. Hearing this statement prompted me to think about how writing, in turn, has affected my life for the better. And, I’ve decided to take each of the action words in bold (above) and create an acrostic for all three that describes what writing does for me. Each acrostic will be featured in a separate blog post and placed under the category, “DOM Writer’s Block: A Writer’s Journey”, for safe-keeping. Today’s post will highlight the word “EDUCATE”. It’s amazing how writing provides me with a top-notch self-education as well as:
E – encourages me to say what I’m too inhibited to speak
D – delivers messages that can be thought-provoking, awe-inspiring, and life-changing
U – uncovers my inner thoughts
C – connects me with people all over the world
A – affords me the opportunity to engage in an activity that I truly love
T – teaches me something brand-new about myself every time I do it
E – enables me to fulfill a creative entrepreneurial role
Take in every opportunity you can to learn something that benefits you and those around you.
