It was a Thursday afternoon. I was at work supposed to be observing a stock count exercise but we were on a break so I took my laptop and decided to write a post for my blog while listening to music with my headphones. The post wasn’t going the way I wanted so I saved it to resume when I felt calmer. A part of the post stuck with me that led to an old post of mine and I realized that words have power. Mind you, I have always known that our words carry weight but, in that instant, I think I finally understood how much power a writer truly wields. The post took me back in time to one of my most cherished memories. In spite of the fact that the person wasn’t and isn’t good for me nothing and no one can take away from those moments.

The people may always change but those special moments you shared were real and those don’t change. (Look at me taking this post in a whole new direction)

When I read the post again, I was back in all those places and in my reminiscing, I was smiling as much as I did when the actual events were taking place. 

So, what am I truly talking about, the pen is essentially mightier than the sword.

Writers are so important. I have had a novel brighten up a gloomy day and also restore my hope in certain situations.

I don’t have any deep point to prove or establish. If you have writers in your life, please show them some love and support because the road they have chosen is not easy and they need all the love and support they can possibly get.

To my fellow writers, you guys are doing amazing. I love y’all and I can’t wait to read your work.
