2．（8分）I realized something this morning． I have been writing now for 34years． It all started

when I was just 18years old． As a boy I had read literally（毫不夸张地）hundreds of books． I

had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade． Then suddenly I found I had

something I wanted to share． I tried to ignore it， but as any writer will tell you once the ideas

awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down． I didn't have a

computer， word processor， or even a typewriter． Still， I grabbed a pen and lined notebook

paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me．

When I was done I didn't know how to share it． There was no internet back then， no

smart phones， and no social media． I sought out the editor of my local county newspaper and

asked him to print what I had written． He was a good man full of both wisdom and

kindness． He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing

to write． I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local

papers and later online as well． Years later at the urging of my readers I even self﹣published

two collections of my stories in book form．

Through my writing I slowly became more than I was． In my writings I encountered my

highest self． In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lies in us all． In my

writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well． I

also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not． With every choice we

make， with every thought we hold， and with everything we do we are writing our own life

story．

Lance Wubbels once wrote： "I hope you realize your life is truly your life． It belongs to

you． It is your story to write with love． Day by day， line by line， write it well．"
