I'm sitting in front of the computer wondering what I should write. I have this urge to write but I'm coming up with some really bad ideas. In fact... I can't even type straight today, and no, I'm not drunk. Plus, the keyboard is pissing me off b/c the keys are really hard and I'm messing up - A LOT!
Perhaps this comes easy to some people. They find inspiration in things in their life and are able to quickly write something... today I feel like writing.... let's write:
So I ask myself, "who is my intended audience?" and I realize that it's everone and also no one. I realize that we truly write for ourselves. There is just something magical in being able to put down in words what we are thinking and partly what we are. It is part of our legacy, like painting or sculpting; it is our footprint. It is not our actions that last through time, it's the impact of these actions and their physical representation that endure that test. So, what this post offers you today - you are reading it and though the only physical thing you can touch is your screen - you are seeing words imprinted with 'me'.

I agree that your audience should be yourself first, since your opinion of yourself matters most. Writing for yourself, I believe, helps you search your soul and helps define who you are and what you want to be...
I have to agree. Write for yourself and your audience will appreciate it all the more. :)
