Step One: Create the Form

Outlining who I want to be is simple: the sweet demeanor, the wise listener, the creative crafter, the dependable friend, the strong negotiator, the ideal lover--I want to be soft in temper and quick to understand. Taking all these aspects and molding them into part of my character is an ongoing process. Character: what does that word mean to anyone, anymore? A simple romantic notion held by myself, believing fully in life's choices. Having the option of deciding who I want to be... In a way, it is my identifier: the ability to change, to grow, to reform myself. So it is this time that I choose to bend and angle the frame into the best design to keep on soaring. This may take a couple rough drafts.

To Rewrite Me

OCTOBER 25, 2010



Time. Is there ever enough of it? Every moment I sense it slipping by, and my life is becoming a list of things I should have done. Should have organized college sooner. Should have remembered to study for that map quiz. Should have written those letters I planned on--they would have been important to someone. Should have finished cleaning yesterday. Should have prayed before bed. Once again, I have that feeling of falling behind, and I know it is time for a change. But where do I begin, when it comes to rewriting my ways?
