Write from the Heart:
A Method that
Probes Your Depths
BY MARCIA MARINER
W
hen I was a child, I grew
up on a farm. There were no
neighbors, and I often spent hours
outside roaming the fields and
riding my bike. As soon as I was
old enough, I learned the power of
putting pen to paper. I remember
taking my pen and notebook outside
and writing love letters, poetry and
whatever else I felt like creating.
I didn’t realize it then, but I know now
that the minute I put pen to paper,
it grounded me to my Source. I
felt an immediate feeling of coming
home to myself and my breathing
would deepen as it does right now
as I write this. This experience led
me to develop a love for the sacred
tool of writing just because, just
for the fun of it. I write for no other
reason but to feel the words flowing
out of me from some invisible realm
within me.
I have always kept a journal, and,
when I was in college, I took classes
in composition and journaling. My
writing was still a haven of creativity
