Before I started this blog I tried writing longer Facebook entries. Some of them came out nicely and I decided to repost them here. So the next few posts will be those little essays that convinced me I can write a blog.
And there’s something I want you to know. I never considered myself a good writer. In fact, I hardly ever wrote anything that was not part of my school or university assignment. Neither do I read much. So I don’t think I have developed a good writing style of my own. But I feel very passionate about this form of expressing my thoughts.
The power of words is immense. Words can inspire people to change their lives, urge them to alter their ways; words can incite wars and bring about peace. After all, words instill a certain mood in us, they make us smile or ponder existential matters; they make us move forward and help the humanity evolve.
I’m not taking up any of the above missions nor do I think I have enough literary prowess to do so now. But I’m here to learn. So one of the reasons why I started this blog is to befriend words and syllables and to become closer to the beautiful world of writing. You decide if I’m successful in my endeavor. If you have any advice on that, please feel free to share your thoughts, I will appreciate it. So I’m wrapping up here and I leave you with these blasts from the recent past: my Facebook posts that led to the creation of this blog.
