The Magic in Writing

Many people enjoy reading, but some people have to ask themselves why. Why do we enjoy reading and writing so much? They're just words printed on paper!

Well, the writing is an art, and art can be magical.

It's like when we appreciate a work of art, cry at an emotional movie, or lay down in bed and listen to our favorite song over and over again. It appeals to us in a way we can't explain, which can only be defined as magic.

Writing words on a paper can create a story, which people can picture in their minds. The writer is an artist of a different trade, and artists are magicians in influencing how we see things. An artist can make a moving picture, a musician can make a moving tune, and a writer can make a moving story.

Art is a lot more than simple words or pictures on paper. What if someone said to poke holes in that photograph of your family? Why wouldn't you? It's just ink on paper. You wouldn't because it means something to you. It's art. It's magic.
