![]() "They're quite frightening actually. You cannot take them back once they've passed your lips." "You cannot act as if they were never spoken. And without even realizing how tightly they can bind, humans continue to use these chains." "Words have life. And in time, they can bind one's right to live. Not only that, but you can use words to bind others as well. If you tell someone often enough that they should stop existing, they will begin to feel the effect of your words, feel the tightness of your chains increase. That is why those who speak and write well must be very careful; they are the ones most likely to abuse these chains without realizing it. And...the chains you place on others can also serve to warp your mind and spirit." This is why I love reading and writing. I feel like I am propelled to another world where reality is blurred and molded into anything that the writer wishes. It just gives me a sense of high when I read and write. These two are my vices. I just can't get enough of it. I WILL not put down a book or a story that is sooo interesting until I finish it. I can't count how many books I've read and papers I've wasted to write on. Unfortunately, I don't think I'm ready to write a whole short story with excellent plot, developed characters and life-changing themes (or maybe it's just my laziness rearing it's ugly head). So as of now I'm only here to read, rate and review. I also don't want to start something which I know I can't commit to. See or read you later. |
