I'm aware that a lot of Japanese English-learners don't like grammar. They seem to hate dealing with confusing technical terms such as relative pronoun （関係代名詞） or the present perfect progressive form （現在完了進行形）...
However, I really love studying grammar. I don't know why and I can't explain the reason well. I JUST love it.
I don't care how much time I spend on grammar. Or rather, I should say that I am so involed in grammar work that I am unaware of the passage of time.
Why am I so drawn to grammar?

What's the most important thing when you use English? I think it is the most important to state your opinion to others. In order others to understand your English, you have to put the words in order according to grammatical rules. You cannnot ignore the existence of grammar. Native English speakers share the rules, thus they can communicate with each other.

Maybe you might think I'm playing the devil's advocate here. But I've never thought that grammar is EVERYTHING. I'd just like to say to you that I've learned a lot from grammar books.

One piece of advice; You don't have to be bound hand and foot by strict & complex grammatical rules. Just write English spontaneously. But, I don't think you should forget about grammar. Grammatical knowledge is very useful. The more you learn English, the more you understand what I mean.

Anyway, keep writing English more & more often. And if you run into some problems, you should reach for your grammar books. I believe those grammar books will give you a lot of valuable information.
