Read and write
Before we can actually read, we first had to learn how to write. Write first our names perhaps, follow the blue-red-blue lines on a standard composition notebook for you to distinguish where to write a lower case letter and an upper case letter, the lines we're there to guide you properly upon learning how to write.
When we we're older we started practicing it, on walls, subtracting on our hands, on every wooden desktop on almost everywhere, which reminds us that every blank space is a plain medium of memory that awaits colors, lines, alterations, double strokes and unending subtraction processes for it to come to life.
We we're also told that reading came after writing, that you we're able to write your name before you could actually read it. Because when we we're kids, pretending to read our names is pointing to what ever character we are to see, and simply stating our names.
Which brings me to my question of is writing necessary for reading?
When I was little, I'm surely not a fan of those cliché children story books on where how a carpenter made a child out of wood that elongates his nose when lying. Well my Calamansi tree at home took over a year to be a foot tall, and this wood had to only lie? Come on, it should be better than that.
Not fond of those stories that lived in a land far far away and actually ended to a happily ever after, how could you ever be so happy with a place that inhibits you for social growth? And how can a prince rescue you if you are too far away, I mean with the prince's sword, multiple layers of clothing and his fashionable boots, the horse could have collapsed and plus the "far far away". Everyone has to think of it. I had thought of it.
The story that I'm fond of now, is the story of your name, of how every small and big letters contribute to compose a personality that you have, It's not perfect but is definitely a reason to stay. When you, is the only art form that deserves to be seen on every walls, every empty canvass, every billboard, almost everywhere that is how worthy your name, of every line when you smile, every color that I see, when you look at me, alterations are not even an issue for every darken part of you reverberates to my eyes as if it was a christmas postcard that everyone wishes to see, and every time I look at you, is a double stroke to my heart and in my mind that I cannot afford to lose this girl and by letting everyone know, I get to get a chance to show them how lucky am I of having someone like you.
This is cliché this is as same as to those children books that I'm not a fan of, but what I've learned, is that you don't believe by it, until you meet someone worth believing with. That it is not about the pot of gold at the end of every rainbow, but it is the treasure of finding someone to find that pot of gold with you. And I have found you, To find someone that will motivate you to become better and better everyday. I still hate those stories.
And for the question, Is writing necessary for reading?
Well me, just like any other normal child, I get to write then read. But when I got older and to start not getting fond of those cliché stories, and I get to meet you, I had to go through the reciprocal process.
I had to read first, to be able to write, for I had to see you first, for me to be able to sway my hands unto a piece of blank paper and to realize how cliché their story was ipom seeing yours, and to write a story worth reading and writing, for there is no much more worthy of being read and written aside from your beautiful name, beautiful you.
