Literature, Poetry, Weak?

Prompt: "Only the weak refuse to be influenced by literature and poetry." Cassandra Clare Let this influence your Blog entry today.

Literature and poetry aren't for everyone. You are missing out on art if you don't like literature and poetry. Maybe a person loves the world as it is and doesn't need literature and poetry to forget things. Good for them. I like to write, no, love, to write. I always loved literature in school. I didn't always like the books chosen for us to read especially in college but I was free to read other stories. I did. I like using my imagination to write and make sense of things by giving stories a happy ending. I love reading what others wrote. I was impressed and intrigued by others writings as well.

The weak. We aren't weak. We are educated and have culture. Works for me. Literature gives us plays and entertainment. If I am weak because I love poetry and literature, I will be bored and weak for a thousand, Alex!
