It is, without a doubt, much easier and more enlightening to express my thoughts in a letter format rather than in an essay or speech format. Although an essay format jumps to the main point, there aren’t any connections being made between the reader and the author. Without any emotions being shared in the words being written, the message does not come out as powerful. During this project, I have learnt a lot about myself as a writer. I have learnt that writing does not always have to be tormenting. Especially when you have the free will to freely write about any topic, any discourse, any community, any issue. This project allowed me to think outside the box and use my creativity. Which is something I thought I lacked in college. The greatest takeaway from this project is using your imagination and words to shine the light on real life problems. To me, this is much more important than writing a scholarly paper.
