Apart from a couple of journal entries in the last few months, I haven't written anything personal and contemplative in a long time. Today's free writing activity with our photograph was a nice return to my writing self.
It's also strange to read, discuss, and even think about scholarly topics over this early on in the summer. Usually, the first few weeks of vacation are a haze of late mornings (waking up at 7.30 is the height of LUXURY), brunches, Netflix, and nostalgic computer games. It's kind of strange but pleasant to work my brain like this.
I didn't know what to expect, but from what we've done today, I am very excited. I'm usually very reserved and private about my writing so it is daunting to share and put myself out there like that.
