Q of the day - Themes in your writing

by SantaBee

I'd thought I'd tackle a writing topic today - themes.

What themes do you prefer to use in your writing?

What is a theme? It is a central unified topic, usually a bit deeper than every day life experiences. It tends to reflect a deeper meaning or message on life, society, or human nature.

I like to examine nature as a theme but sometimes, what I'm writing doesn't really need it. I also like to look at courage, and bravery. Not everyone is courageous. It takes a lot to muster courage.

Other themes include: circle of life, coming of age, faith, family, good vs evil, identify, concept of justice. There are more. What do you like to tackle?
