What is the aim or goal of your writing: "When I write, it is the only time I do not lie, demure, go into denial, avoid, or diminish my realities. My aim is to speak the truth; my goal is to assist the reader in learning my world, my 'sight', my life safely...but surely..., to realize the beauty, the strength, the wonder there."
