A WRITER'S IDEAL

The goal of a writer is to be loved by its readers. An added bonus is to be paid, as well; to earn a living by writing. To be both read and paid would seem to be a writer's ideal, except for their human desire for more. "More" has myriad mystical meanings, one of which is to be immortalized forever. Now, this last one reverts back to the first one: the need to be loved by, read by, or read to, others. Aesop is read. Euclid is read. Jesus is read. Though none set out to be read or writers,all yet are. All are beloved. Their words are have been read for eons, a writer's ideal.
