Written Word

Contemplating as I read and fall in love with Lisa Jo Baker's blog....why is that I adore the written word so much? I think it's because writing skips over all of the small talk we feel so compelled to engage in when we talk to people. When writing, we can get right to the heart of the matter. We can say just what we feel, and don't have to worry what other people are going to think of it, because they are not right in front of us at the time.
