I have attempted to update my poetry site to make it more appealing, and I am running into roadblocks. Silly updates! Silly changes. You are driving us all mad and making us unproductive.
In this chaos, I am asking, "what is God saying". My dad is hemming me in at every turn, and I feel like God is just giving him permission to do it. In truth, God is not imprisoning me or ignoring me. He is ever present and fights for me. He is teaching me to love people at their worst.
I look forward to returning to Taylor University, so I can function with more freedom. Thankfully, I am heading to college with no need for my dad's approval or acceptance. I know him well enough. When I finally get my degree, he will give me a heartfelt thank you and then return to his life as if nothing has changed.
I appear to have more ease with writing with my blog. I feel more open to express how I feel without fear or judgement. I have learned that when I am alone in contemplation and mediation, I find my true self. However, getting my feelings outside of myself is another important tool.
I have numerous writing projects I am currently working on. Believe me, my writing process is completely different than my professors at Taylor. Taylor's program helped me understand some basic approaches to writing that have helped to revolutionize my voice. However, I remain protective of my true voice and approach. The books that often last are the books that have a unique voice. It helps to be counter cultural as well. My writing process is arduous, but productive. It takes a long time to become the person you always wanted to become.
