Why? And Thank YouScreenshot image of my Medium profile page Words by Egypt 𓇢𓆸 There's a quiet magic existing in the thought that there are people like you who read my words. Who take time out of their lives and lend their attention to my words. It makes me wonder why? Are you sometimes lost and scared like me? Hopeful of humanity? Or think the world is full of people dressed in scum? I think like that sometimes, I also hold hope near and dear, and can see good still in the world. Although it is hard at times. I also love a sweet escape into words, worlds, and thought. I yearn to live as much in reality as I do in imagination. Do you feel the same too? Or do you come to my words for a reason I cannot imagine?Maybe I’m nothing special? Perhaps it is not my words that are special to you at all. Perhaps it is the magic that lies in written form? In a writer’s words, that pull your heart near. Possibly my writing is just another passenger in your literary train. Do tell me what brings you here. And why do you keep coming back (if you’re a returning reader). So this writer wonders what keeps readers perusing through my words? What connects us through the screen or page? Regardless of what it may be, I am grateful. I offer my thanks, because readers are the fuel of a writer's soul.I write for myself, as I write for you. With a hope that others see parts of themselves in my stories, thoughts, and experience. Thanks for walking on this path of self and world discovery with me.Because you could have given up Tossed me over the bridge like you’ve done many other writers, but you choose to come back, again and again. Perhaps seeing something in my words that even I may not see in them. I’m equally humbled, and honoured to have made a way into your heart one story, essay, or poem at a time. — Egypt Thanks for reading. I’m Egypt, a multi-passionate, multigenre writer and poet.
