I discovered a year or so ago that I really like writing. And not necessarily in the sense of formal writing. What I like best is writing for myself.
I have a lot of writing about my beliefs, goals, my days, special moments and what not. Also, if I have too much on my mind, I usually write (or type) out my thoughts, draw up plans, and in essence organize my thoughts.
Its a hobby and something I enjoy doing. It is one of the things which helps me relax.
Anyone else enjoy writing? For yourself? Just in general?
Note: I am not sure where this topic goes, moderators feel free to place it in the appropriate forum.
i write as well :)
but if its stress i draw, or paint, watercolour and oilpaints theres nothing more beautiful than a sketched picture straight from imagination
i love to write. it's actually kind of amazing to see how different i feel -- and how different i am -- by the end. writing is thinking in a different way.
it's also really fun to teach creative writing! :D

Almost never say this, the thread ends up in Cafe. :p
I like writing, too. I like ot write for others more than myself because when I'm writing for myself I change my perspective by the end making it skewed. If I do write something for myself, I usually just put it at the bottom of my pile. I also need to be in the mood to write which takes time and can't be forced, so I don't write much overall.

I find writing to be very therapeutic so I tend to write when I'm in a certain mood of expression.

Cooking is also said to therapeutic. I dunno maybe cos of the aroma of the food or something. For women (not trying to be sexist), shopping can be therapeutic at times.
