Writing can be extremely personal, which is great. Recently my brother's friend asked me to edit essays for his mba application. While reading them, I learned about his bucket list (hiking the Appalachian Trail). That's something I would've never known about or expected from him had I not been given the opportunity to engage with his words. Good writing truly withstands the test of time too. For me it provides release like very few things can.
ReplyDeleteI agree! He should definitely hike it! I have a friend who's doing it now. I bet its an incredible journey of discovering and finding yourself :) Thanks for sharing!
