I loved what you said and i agree with every word you wrote , i studied french in university and I'm a french teacher but whenever i want to express myself or my feelings i just find myself unintentionally doing it in english even if it's just ideas in my head ,but they are in english (i hope you understand what i mean😅)i could never do that in arabic or even in french the language i chose to study in uni because i loved it , i feel that English is the language of freedom it's something that you can't really explain, speaking another language was always something special to me it's like getting to be someone else creating a new personality and being in control of that new character.
I do write to understand myself I realized. But, I sometimes write to help a message ascend or transmit someone's story everyone must learn about. I do write to express myself and though I shy away from "I", I see it as one of the defining components of declaring presence and identity. It's hard to understand why Englsih is the language we find ourselves most comfortable in using as a medium of communication, but we do not have to understand our use of it now. However, we can use language to learn about that reason just like you did 👌. Beautiful essay btw!!
This is beautiful, and, I feel confused about myself and this about the language we choose to wrtite. My mother language is Spanish, and I write a lot of poetry in it but when writing or thinking about literature and essays somehow I always end in English words. I like to think about this as my desire to improve my english and to be more confident but is weird at the end. Btw thank you for those books from the pic that are now in my tbr list jaja :)
It's the same thing for me!!, whenever i want to express myself, my feelings, or talk about something that hits my soul deeply, i do it in english, write it in english and speak it out loud in english...and believe me when i tell you that this language has no relation with the field i chose in university...but expressing myself in english for me is like showing my other side of personnality, and i love it!!!!!
