Dear Writing Mama's,
Thank you so much for your loving and affirmative feedback. In all honesty, I posted my doubts ten days ago and was surprised to check the site this morning and find the responses from you wonderful woman.
So, I'm back. And will just go back to suggesting topics. You all have renewed my spirit and inspired me. I really had lost site of what really mattered and you all set me straight. It's not about me doing things perfectly any more than expecting you to do things perfectly.
I had gotten so down on myself that I couldn't figure out how to make feedback what I wanted it to be that I was ready to throw in the towel. For whatever reason, I am able to give helpful feedback verbally and in person and have no idea how to model what I want in this forum. I really felt like I had failed you all. I am letting go of that perception and thank you all for being my teachers and for offering me such unconditional acceptance.
So, let's jump into a writing new year! A little late but better than not at all!
Love, Tanya
Assignments:
Write ten minutes this week on the topics of:
"Renewal"," Light", and "What I most want to Learn"
I am going to write a few quotes. Pick one and freewrite on what it inspires in you for twenty minutes this week:
"To receive is the ultimate giving" - Gangaji
"Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish others" - Mark Twain
" A setback is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently" -Henry Ford
"What you think of youself is much more important than what others think of you" _Seneca
"A mind is it's own place and in itself, can make heaven of Hell and a hell of Heaven"- Milton
" What is within surrounds us" _Rainer Marie Wilke
Great!
Bonus assignment:
Take a walk this week and meditate on the question, "what inspires me and how can I create more of that in my life?" Come home and write on your answers for twenty minutes
Begin a freewrite with one of these phrases:
Things were slow in coming to fruition.............
The day I died, it was raining
My child looked up at me with pleading............
The last time I had seen him..............
Yesteday, it all seemed so..................
See you next week!
