Return to the Pure Love of Writing

In a world that is being dominated by technology with its unlimited access to various resources via internet, social media venues, blogs, vlogs, instagram, snapchat, Facebook and the like, the pure love of writing has become a lost art and has dissipated into a past that seems to be forgotten. Writing, once allowed you to articulate words, feelings and emotions that people were unable to verbalize either face to face or even on the phone. People use to write to share their deepest desires, wants, needs, truths, heartbreaks and experiences but now it is debatable as to why someone is writing today. So many writings lack integrity, and people are misrepresenting their lives through superficial writings only to appease someone else, strangers or worse haters. I have found that people tend to exaggerate more and more on social media regarding their social, economic, financial and relational statuses to impress people they don't know and to outdo people that they don't like. What was once used to share facts, hopes, and dreams as well as to enlighten, motivate and inspire is now used to compete with the next post on social media in hopes of becoming another viral post. Where has the pure love of writing gone? Why are people so compelled to impress people they do not know or care about? Writing without pretense and more so without honesty and purity of heart. What will it take for people to return to the love of writing because they want to impact the life of another or encourage someone that has been blindsided by life's trials and tribulations or genuinely celebrate another individual, not because you want to be deep and then request for people to like your response but genuinely responding from a sincere place. I am not charging all people of this idiosyncrasy but far too many are guilty of violating a relationship that once proved to be so vital to the growth and development of relationships. Where are the love letters, thank you letters, thinking about you letters, inspiring letters and encouraging letters? It is a like a husband abandoning his wife, and not looking back to see what condition he has left her in. What about those who thrived off of receiving a letter in the mail, saying, "well done", "you are missed", "I love you" and let's not forget the "please come home" letter? Who are writing these letters, now? So much time is spent on social media about the next fitness crave, diet phase, my new home, new baby, new outfit, new job...new, new, new...only to show off and pretend that your world is perfect and your achievements are legitimate. Unfortunately, the sincerity of it all has been tainted by false humiliation, inaccurate information and the infamous revenge sharing information to brutally prove to the person who left you or broke your heart that they're going to regret it and you are doing great. But are you really do great, and if so, why do you need to convince everyone on social media? This is not a judgment more so a plea for people to write from a sincere and honest place with the intent of impacting the lives of others, in a good way, and leaving a mark on the minds and hearts of people that can never be erased. Return to us, Pure Love of Writing, for you are sorely missed.
