Random Thoughts From A Random Girl
So I have been doing a lot of creative writing lately. Or it has been stuck in my head and I am trying to get it all out on paper. Or my computer Keegan. Yes, I named my computer Keegan. I named my IPOD Gideon so sue me. I like making up names and different characters. I like to make the characters come out alive and to feel real and authentic. I like making a story that I can believe in the characters even if the story line or plot line doesn’t make much sense. I want people to come up to me and ask where all this stuff comes from. I would answer in a good fake british accent… “I have spent many years reading Dickens and Charlotte Bronte and many other brilliant writers. I try to wear the shoes that people wear so I can become the character but most of all these Characters are apart of me. The story lines they are just a representation of the world we live in. It’s not perfect and neither are we.” Then I would go and turn on my radio and rock out to really loud music. Well, because that is who I am. I am a creative rock star/artist/writer/ WOMAN OF GOD… one day I am going to get those voice lessons and learn how to play the guitar really awesome. I don’t want to give up on life. I want to enjoy it and bring joy to others. I want people to see the light. I want to be the light. I want people to see Jesus in me. He is my rock, he is my savior and he totally awesome when I am scared out of my mind or when darkness falls. I cannot let the world defeat me.. I am strong but I am only strong in Christ. He is my salvation. He is the only reason I am still alive because at the age of 17 I had a choice. To live or give up. I chose to live. Giving up is for people who fear that they have no choice. There is a choice and there is hope. I want to spread that word to my fellow friends and strangers because I want to walk into a community and build roots of love, friendship, trust and protection for the hope of the new generation. I want to make people realize that there is hope out there. Once you get it the love and joy will surround you. Maybe finally you will be at peace. I don’t know, but I hope one day I can say with humility– I changed somebody’s life for the good.
