“You can only become accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.” Maya Angelou“
In this blog post I will be blogging about my narrative project. In my narrative project I describe about an emotional, heartfelt moment that had taken place in my life five years ago. There are three classic videos from the Wizard of Oz connected to this blog post. The films are
Wizard of Oz: If I Only Had The Brain, Heart, Nerve Wizard of Oz: Meeting the Wizard Wizard of Oz: You've Always Had the Power My narrative allows me to travel into my mind and remember that summer morning when I had to face the day I wasn’t expecting to come so soon. That day I was so angry and heartbroken. Five years later I realize that we all one day, will no longer be here in the physical. The way I felt then is the total opposite of how I feel now. I can now smile when I come across memories. My narrative allows me to explore my heart. In my heart then I felt like life wasn’t fair and that I was unsure why GOD would allow me to deal with another painful loss within a two months span. I now feel in my heart that my grandma is where she wanted to be. She’s no longer in pain. I still feel a sense of emptiness at times. My narrative meets the nerve element by showing how heartbroken I was at that point in my life. I literally felt I have gone through the worse pain I could’ve ever went through in my life. Then my life seemed to be stuck at a standstill and I was numb. Now that I’m older and years have gone by it’s like, damn life really could break you down if you let it. My narrative enables me to re-examine the strength I have in my life’s story. At the time I felt so weak, and helpless. I was down for months and lost. I also had children that I had to take care of and be strong for. Writing my story out and telling it to my classmates was the best thing I could’ve done. It has helped me realize that writing it was exactly what I needed. What shapes our sense of identity are the lessons that we go through in life. We go through good and bad lessons and it’s truly up to us which ones we let affect us.
