Hello internet cousins! (insert cheesy wave)
We are officially in the 4th quarter of this momentous year known as 2020. The year of "clear vision" that left me questioning if I reallllyyy was ready to see what God revealed to me. Honestly, I was disappointed and underwhelmed, fearful at times, unfocused, yet all the while hopeful. Part of what God showed me about me this year is that I tend to numb myself or avoid issues rather than face them head on.
One such coping mechanism that greatly annoyed me was my tendency to get stuck on my phone so easily. Yall, literally, it was heinously unhealthy the amount of screen time I docked on some days. (I'm talking upwards of 6 hours...I know! shameful!). Anywho, as is my custom, when I'm overwhelmed or vexed for long enough I eventually turn to writing as my release/therapy. Hence, some good did arise from the dilemmas lol.
I'm naming this series of poems/prose #QuarantineChronicles. I've decided to stop trying to only post my testimony in the past tense. Many of the pieces written this year tackle issues I may have gotten better at, but I'm definitely still in process with.
Happy Reading :)
