“Writing does not mean to passively add to the noise of the world but to actively engage in the transformation of knowledge”
— Umberto Eco

Simplified Meaning:
When you write, it's not just about adding more words to what people already hear every day. Writing should be about sharing ideas that make people think differently or understand something new. Think of it like cooking. You don't just keep adding ingredients to the pot without a plan; you aim to create a delicious and meaningful meal. In the same way, writing should have a purpose and help change or improve what people know. For example, if you write a story about kindness, it can inspire others to be kind too. So, good writing should help make the world a better place by changing how people see things and encouraging better actions.
