Rhetorical Situations

They say that all writing has a purpose and we write because we need to put our thoughts down on paper. They also say, that narratives are written, read and told for many different reasons. I totally agree with this reading because most people write about their life and try to tell their story through these narratives. Each person has a story because something happened to them and they don't want it to happen to you. In my opinion that is the reason people write. 

They say whenever we write, whether it's email to a friend or a toast for a wedding, and an English essay, we face some kind of rhetorical situation. We have a purpose, a certain audience, a particular stance,  genre, and a medium to consider. 

I say that I totally agree with this statement. I believe that when we write anything we have to have a purpose. If I am bored, I will txt my friends. The purpose is that I am bored and I wanted to talk to my friends. When talking to people you have to talk with respect. For example: I will not talk to my grandmother the same way I talk to my friends. Also, when you write you have to take everything else into consideration. You want to get your voice out without over doing your stance. 

People write for a purpose, to get their voice heard.
