I think writing is an important skill to have in life. In a world with countless forms of media like YouTube, Instagram, or Tiktok, it may seem like writing has become an obsolete skill that has no place in our technology filled lives. However, writing still remains an important practice. Sometimes, there are things you can only express or express best in writing over other forms. Writing can allow people who can’t really express themselves in other forms. You can write about whatever you want and that is an important trait of writing. Writing can also be more accessible than other forms. You can read or write from anywhere. Whatever thoughts you have about a topic or issue, you can easily write about. Writing is also the most basic form of organizing ideas. If you are going to give a speech, you will usually have to write down at least just a basic outline of what you are going to say in your speech. Without writing down your ideas, your thoughts can get messy and lost very fast. Writing can also be a way to inspire imagination in others. Writers write books that when read, inspire the reader to imagine what is happening from the writing. Forms of media like videos leave very little to the imagination since you’re able to see exactly what is being conveyed. Writing has a more significant degree of ambiguity. Writing can also be used for more professional purposes like writing up a report. Things like this is why writing is so important in our every day life and why it is something we cannot do without.
