"All writers, I think, want to be a certain kind of writer. I, for instance, have always highly valued versatility in voice and range. The ability to be as powerful in resisting as hooks, as culturally and intellectually insightful as Achebe and Adichie, with the empathy of Emerson and C.S. Lewis, the certainty of Orwell, and to make reading words feel like making love in the manner of Angelou."thoughtcatalog.com/kovie-biakolo/2015/02/youre-not-as-alone-as-you-think-you-are/

"Every time I have written something that was truly personal – even though I think of all my writing as revealing sometimes small and sometimes large pieces of me, not all of it comes from the deep-seated places that I still fear to reach into. But every time I do, I find that is when I connect with people the most.
Sadness, pain, heartbreak, feelings of inadequacy or ugliness or just a sentiment that leaves you in want – this is what makes hearts connect. This is the acceptance of the tragedy of being human which although is quite tragic, is also quite ordinary."

I think that revealing even a small part of oneself invariably elicits a response, an opportunity for empathy, support, recognition, validation and love. Authenticity is quickly recognized and usually honored by others.
Revealing oneself - our fears, faults, dreams and character is not without risk but without taking this risk life is a missed opportunity for love, relationship and growth
Safe travels
