     This is my opinion, this is how I feel. I wrote this because my friends always ask me this question.

You know you have a love for writing when every subject you’re passionate about you find yourself jotting, scribbling, tattooing it any chance you get on any thing that will allow your word’s to be legibly seen. When you find yourself participating in the area you constantly indulge in at home.

 When you allow your creativity to guide you to start trying new genre’s of writing which is something you wouldn’t usually do; but for some reason your passion and desire is drawing you to and you find your pen gliding to begin a new journey of adventures, exploring your writing abilities which will soon lead you to the writing of your choice, your favorite, whether it be essays, comedy, non-fiction, children stories, fiction, screen plays, poetry and so much more. But when you find it, oh, when you find it-what a joy that will be, what an awakening. To enjoy what you love; to find what you enjoy.

  So, how do you know you have a love for writing? When you pick up a pen or a pencil and truly love how either feels between your fingers. When you smile do to the smooth gliding of your pen or when you hear the soft rasping sound of the pencil while writing. Or maybe when you become excited by paper because you know it is your stage for the ink/led to show off who you are or what you are thinking about. And last but not least-when you realize that you have a gift for words. When you’re able to convey it all on paper or a computer, regardless of the subject. As for me, I know that I have a love for writing because;


I inhale the smell of ink – Which stimulates my brain to think

Mean while my soul drinks – Then my emotions become the link

Between the pen and the sheet

Which becomes my journey of legendary speak

And because of this, nothing else matters but me writing the words that other’s will one day read

                        Until…

Democratic Dilemmas and Divine Inspiration (A Kindle Short) by Aberjhani

Democratic Dilemmas and Divine Inspiration examines the significance or relevance of the idea that the U.S. Constitution was, as many believe, divinely inspired. How much did that belief matter to founders of the nation and how much does it matter no
