What is writting for?

Writting originates from pre-historic Sumer and developed by the late 3rd millennium into cuneiform. At that point in time long ago, the system of writting was mainly used for keeping accounts and recording numbers but it has immensely evolved into a revolutionary form of influencing the minds of people around the world. This method of communication can be used in countless manners but there are several common reasons for its use. Writting to a novelist or poet is way of depicting an endless painting with the use of words describing the scenes and the feelings within the story. This sort of writing is described as using "imagery". Novels give chance to its reader to use more imagination within the explanation of the story and poetry can capture deep feelings within any human reading it, if its understood that is. Writing can also be used to be influential towards people to act upon certain things and can really cause a revolution. It can be used in a manipulative manner and can be used for destructive powers. Albert Einstein's letter written to President Franklin Roosevelt began the cold war of weapons of mass destruction. He had written about his invention and caused the nuclear power of the Atomic Bomb to radiate across the planet.

But writing isn't always as negative as I am first portraying it to be. Writing to me is a manner in which to ventilate your emotions and find your inner self. Writing is pasting your mind into something more than just a mere thought. The ability for a human to write is extremely wonderful because you can often surprise yourself with what you put down on a sheet of paper or whatever piece of slate you obtain to put down your ideas and feelings upon.
