Hi John, Thank you for sharing such beautiful and inspiring thoughts. I wrote my first book long hand before loading it in the computer, so I understand what you so beautifully wrote about. But your blog also reminded me of something more important; why I write. I was sixty-three when my formal career came to an abrupt end. But my sense of purpose to help create a greater good did not. In my search for a method to still contribute, I found my writing. You are right, it is definitely an expression of my self and the more I write, the more I expose my true essence. I may never become rich and famous from these efforts, but it feeds my heart every time I hear from someone who was positively nudged by what I wrote. Thank you again.
