Is It Still Worth Writing Today?
Think About This Seriously
Every word I write is an act of rebellion against forgetting, a small light lit in the darkness of time. A silent scream echoing through days, months, and years, leaving invisible marks on unknown minds I may never meet. Writing today isn’t just an act of communication — it’s a manifesto of existence, a declaration that our stories, thoughts, and emotions deserve to be preserved even in an increasingly ephemeral world.
Right now, millions of stories are dying in silence inside people who think their words don’t matter. They believe there are too many writers, too much content, too much noise. But you know what the world really has too much of? Silence disguised as noise.
They say writing is dying. That people don’t read anymore. Lies. People have never read more — they’ve just changed how they read. Every message, every post, every comment is a small act of reading and writing. We’re all writers now, even if we don’t realize it.
Yesterday I received a message that made me cry: “Mary, your writing is an inspiration for my day. The topics you write about are interesting, informative, and relevant. Thank you for sharing your ideas and insights!”
