I like the intimacy writing to you as if you were the only recipient. I like recording it as if I was talking to you right there with me...
Imagining you being right there, I can be more authentically myself and I imagine I stand closer to you...
Explaining it to you (the reader), helps me learn and integrate even more, which really lights me up! As Heinlein puts it so nicely: "When one teaches, two learn".
