Writing has taught me that sometimes the most important thing isn't the song itself.

It's the thinking that happens while you're writing it.

I've found that when I start putting thoughts, memories, experiences, or emotions into words, I often end up understanding them differently than I did before I started writing.

Sometimes a song changes.

Sometimes my perspective changes.

Sometimes I realize things I didn't even know I was carrying around.

Have any of you experienced that?

Has songwriting ever helped you understand something about yourself, your life, or a situation differently than before you wrote about it?
