Hello Again Everyone!
So today I just wanted to talk about The Beauty of Writing. For the past four weeks I have been listening to TWO different teachers talk about writing, mainly its development and impact on the different cultures of the world.
Literally, our entire culture changed because of of the development of writing. Before writing, we depended on memory. The memorization of our villages past. There was no room for abstract thinking.
But with writing, we developed science, philosophy, so on and so forth. We were able to expand outside of villages and become more independent because our personal identities no longer depended on the memories of others to BE remembered.
Just wrap your head around that. Writing gave us the freedom to explore, to think, to discover.
How awesome is that?
Peace
