For this post, I read A Fable for the Living (Kevin Brockmeier) In this Blog I will be writing a letter to myself about our times spent together and moments spent apart. We will share our journey of fears, happiness, and confusion. I will write to you, to let you know that our bond will grow and the path of being a better expressive writer is now in session, for more insight checkout my blog.
Dear Travod, How’s it been? I will begin by saying I am sorry for the distance between us, it has been a long time. I understand that hearing from me may seem a little awkward but here I am reaching out. Did you know that I think of you a lot? I know that's hard to believe considering how long it has been. But I’m here to let you know we still have a victory to claim and the battles have to be won in preparation of the war. Remember the time when we were faced with a bit of difficulty and we were so afraid of facing our fears and afraid of being criticized . After hours and hours of pondering and all the doubt and uncertainty, we ultimately came to the conclusion that in order to conquer that fear we had to face it head on with no doubt in mind. Yes with strength, faith and mercy we got the battle won , but somewhere we got comfortable and forgot that was only part of the issue.I feel as though we knew that there was more to handle but we settled for okay. Well today most of all I want to say the battle is not over and we are not done fighting, my focus and commitment has been strengthened so much I'm here today writing you this letter to make amends with you and ask for your forgiveness and your hand in fighting this battle with me as we can finish a war and achieve a well deserved victory and settle the score once and for all with fear and doubt. The way I see it is that with what you bring to the table and what I’ve acquired over the years , we can do this, we can open up be transparent and dig deep for a healthier , happier us. We deserve it right? True we will have mountains to climb and oceans to swim but we together can change our whole perspective of what makes us running from what makes us uncomfortable. First we should be grateful for all the things we have and the blessings we’ve received, be thankful for being able to strive for greatness. Also be grateful for us being able to communicate after so long. Secondly we have to be able to accept the things we can’t change . Knowing that opening up and being truthful helps with the flow of movement in one sector, we ultimately have to be humble enough to see growth and courageous enough to keep fighting, even when fear is as close as the skin. Last but not least we have to love friends and enemies alike just being mindful that a pure heart keeps you grounded and open to understanding others we have to be able to accept the compliments as well as take the insults and negative criticism as a grain of salt. Travod I’m writing you this letter with an open mind and open heart coming to you humbly asking you to please take this journey with me so we can appreciate the victory.Take this journey with me so we can continue to reach heights we never imagined because we let fear and doubt get in the way. Please take this invitation into consideration as we embark on our new path and becoming all we can be with no regrets and no excuses , let's take fear away once and for all with tears in my eyes and lots of love in my heart I’m so glad that I reached out to you with lots of love and joy. Love, Donovan
