Yup, I usually take my time to write just like I take my time in drinking my tea. I allow events to take place once more - at least on my mind - and take my time before I write the next few words just like in between sips of tea wherein I savor its simple taste and relaxing aroma before taking another sip or filling my tea cup with more.

Why do I love to write amidst my busy schedule just like I don't mind relaxing over tea on my desk where a pile of papers are waiting for me to work on? Perhaps, in writing I find solace that is hard to find in today's world. Everything seems to be too fast to a point that most things are taken for granted. Through writing, I am able to reconnect to my own true self. When I ponder on different thoughts, it seems that time suddenly slows down or is even put to a halt to give me that chance to see myself the way I easily see others.

Writing also gives me the opportunity to live a better life each day. When thoughts, from one's learnings to daily experiences to frailties uncovered, turn into written words, they seem to be ingrained in one's mind.

More than than anything else, writing allows me to capture a single moment of time. While events and experiences seem to be transient, they become permanent through written pieces whose words breathe out the same emotions and feelings felt at that point in time which allow one to relive that moment again.
