Changing the World

“By definition, writers are people who care enough to try to share ideas with other people.” What if we consider ourselves writers, but we don’t share our ideas with others? Does this mean, to Pipher, that those people aren’t considered writers?
In my experience I’ve been a quiet writer as what I like to call it. Writing stories for myself, and writing in journals. As of right now I keep my ideas, observations, and dreams to myself, but if I were to share one idea I’d share my idea of traveling for yourself and not for anyone else. When I say anyone else I mean doing a study abroad.
This is obviously all opinion about studying abroad because I’m sure it’s a great experience, but I feel you learn more when you’re traveling by yourself or with one or two other people and you can freely travel about and not have to worry about going to class. Although I’ve never studied abroad and don’t have any experience with that I have walked around cities that I’ve traveled to in America by myself and felt so free. I was able to do whatever I wanted whenever I felt like it and I felt like I learned more about the culture and the city itself. I want to share this idea with others because I think everyone should learn about culture and the traveling experience at their own pace and not have to feel restricted about going to class in a beautiful city in a different country.
I’ve always dreamt of being published in a magazine and I feel like my idea could be a good topic to write about. On the other hand I would have to travel myself to actually be credible for a published article. I couldn’t just write my opinions on traveling and expect to be published.
If I did experience traveling and wrote about it and people read it then people could learn from my experiences and could be inspired to do what I did. I personally love to read about other people’s ideas and experiences and take them into consideration so then eventually I could experience the same as they did. From reading my ideas, I'd hopefully inspire people to live it up like I did and to create their on experiences and ideas just from reading mine.
