Abditory

“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic.”

These words, written by J.K.Rowling, and spoken by Professor Albus Dumbledore, are the basis for the username that I chose for myself. These words, they depict the truth in its entirety. They are, as he said, “capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it“, conveying the strength of the words.

Especially in the technologically advanced era that we live in, words have become of utmost importance as it is easier for them to cross a million barriers and give voice to what cannot be uttered out loud.

Why start a blog?

Writing has become my therapy. It has been there with me in times of utter distress, as well as in times of complete happiness. There has never been a time when words have failed me. Instead, they lift me up. They are all that I have in times of euphoria, in times of monotony, and in times of anguish. They assist and motivate me to fight the constant pressure that is thrust upon me, and help me in giving an outlet to all my feelings.

I write about the things that I am afraid of giving voice to. The thoughts that wander aimlessly in my head, find their destination on a piece of paper. Everything that goes on in my life, that I feel and am terrified of admitting out loud, even to myself, flow out from my heart and onto a paper (and well, in this case, on a blog).

In writing, I find joy, I find solace. I feel at home when I write. It is the place that I run to when I’m done with the world as it is.

Writing is my abditory. ❤
