Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I have been crazy busy with life. I am back in School at RBC and loving it though the thirteen hour days may kill me. Or to be more specific, the huge bag of books(also referred to as my child) that weighs like 50 pounds may kill me. Ugh. . . I get home at night and my arm feels like it is gonna fall off!
So, any how we did a lesson on "First Thoughts" the other day in English class and I thought I would let you read one of the examples we had to write. We were given five minutes to type whatever came to mind on a computer with the computer monitor off so we could not check our work until the time was up. The general topic she gave was loss.
Loss. The word brings a gut wrenching feeling of despair for most people. But for me it brings joy, for the loss I am referring to is not one of pain but one of new beginning. For me, loss is the thing which represents the new beginning of my life. I started last semester only wanting a new beginning for myself but what I found was so much greater then anything I could ask or imagine. I found love. In finding love, I lost the vague inclinations of love which I had acquired through the years. I lost the feeling of being alone and unsure of myself. I lost the hopeless dreary days spent waiting for my prince to find me. I lost the girl who spent her days wishing she were some one else. I found beauty in the simple things in my life and began to understand what it means to have everything in your life seem complete. In loss I found so much more.
That's it. Let me know what you think.
