There's something about
Words spoken with sincerity
That shakes my soul awake
Words placing promises
Of forever and always
An honest reminder that we are more
Than our finest mistake
May our words continue
To shake souls awake
I'm often asked why I became a writer
I never thought I would be a writer
And if you know anything about my writing, it isn't perfect
I struggle, to find, the right place, for commas, to go
I'm still not sure; how to use - proper: "punctuation"
(Yes, I do have a fear of those who call themselves a "Grammar Nazi")
(Also, glitter)
(Also, snakes)
But this doesn't keep me from writing
Fear isn't a good enough reason to keep me from doing what I love to do
I write because I hope to shake souls awake
I write to spread hope
I write to announce love
I write to inspire others to write
I write to encourage others to shake souls awake with their lives
Why do you do what you do?
Time and time again I am learning that what we do matters more than we think it does
What you do matters
Your life ripples across the lives of many making an impact that goes on and on
And as we go on and on we have to ask, why do you do what you do?
