For some people, writing comes more naturally than speaking. One could even start at a young age, keeping a personal diary, for example. It was also my case when my grandfather gave me a small notebook that I could use to jot down the events of the day; unfortunately, he would sneak a peek inside when I wasn't around and, candidly, he even confessed it to me 😆
My grandfather had this strange machine in his study (see the photo below); I believe many of us have seen one even up until the early '90s. An Olivetti 44 model that worked perfectly even after decades of use. You just had to hit the keys a little harder, and when you used carbon paper to make a duplicate copy, your fingers practically looked like little sausage at the end of typing. To erase mistakes, when they happened, without having to pull the sheet out by rotating the roller (because if you pulled it out directly, it would create a mess, yes, I did that back in elementary school), various methods were used, including an eraser and correction paper (similar to today's correction fluid). And the two-color ribbon, black and red, which had a strong smell; once you got the hang of it and started typing faster, it was a beauty.
Then the keyboards of PCs arrived, and the world changed once again. Diaries became blogs, and this time, those who wrote them knew exactly that they wanted others to read their thoughts. However, paper diaries still exist, even in the 21st century, and there are those who use them privately. Writing by hand is incomparable.
The importance of fantasy and why we should never let it go
Imagination in life helps a lot, even in fields and situations that have nothing to do with writing. Where dreams flourish, imagination grows like a majestic tree, whose roots sink directly into the soul. It is a refuge from the daily grind, a bridge that easily connects children and adults, and it is the key to putting into practice the famous phrase 'unplugging' and escaping the grayness of monotony.
There is nothing better than imagination, even in the world of work; it brings out unexpected ideas even in critical moments.
