Thinking puts the thinker in the observation box, constantly gazing in from an outsider perspective. Why is this like that? But, what about you? Who dissects you honestly? Your thoughts don’t care about you, and neither does your writing. Writing is something you put out, a passing of something you saw, thought, or felt. The life span of a good sentence is only a few seconds. From mind to fingertips, words are dead to the writer once on the page.
It's a great analogy you made there!
