"Copywriter" Is A Journey Not A Destination

2 replies
Here we all are, somehow.... existence brought us here to this spot.

This mark in time.

Different but the same. A copywriter, that person with the potential to change a view, skew a mood.... even change a life. Through our words we are blessed and driven, we are forced by indomitable will to do it. And wake up to do it again. Answer an email or read a forum post, call a client... seek something. An answer.

This journey is just that, not a destination. He who knows all understands nothing. And yet here we sit... on this brink of civilizations boundless charge, about to leap into the known world we are creating a single sentence at a time.

And we push for it. We strive and break our fingers, they crack at the keyboard as we do our best. Our best will, our best to our knowledge that us, we...... YOU..... are changing life.

That our words by mere event of EXISTENCE..... are somehow altering the process of the humans around us. This evolution.

AND WE WILL LOOK BACK. At a point in time, this or ANY other we choose. And stand upright with chests wide and shoulders back hard. With a soft smile in our hearts... that we came this way a brief while. And we did good with our time.

Good night writers. And may whom you worship, bless your dreams ... with sweet ones.

    One of the easiest transformations I ever undertook as a copywriter was reading that quote every day.
