musings 220

We express our ideas, of enduring value, mostly in written words..

Usually we take care to ensure the rhyme and rhythm for the formation of the sentences, and often an attractive array of words succeeds in captivating the minds of the audience..

But more important is the content..

We should be honest first. and should be honest to the last.

We should be precise.

We should not hurt through slapstick humour or dry sarcasm...

We need not boast or attempt to sell ourselves.. usually our thoughts and words would sell or kill us spontaneously even without any conscious attempt on our parts..

We must never fail to appreciate the fact that what we write is of any use only if someone reads it, and that means the reader should like it, persuade himself to read it, and derive some use out of it.

Of course we can write anything, in any language whether we know the language or not, we can use any word whether that word is really in use or not, but then such writing will succeed only creation of sort of smudges on paper made by a pen and the action could help only in making the paper dirty.. If the words so written do not mean anything to anyone except perhaps ourselves..
