Last week was incredible. Pretty much, that's all it sums up to. I had one of the most profound experiences of my life. Besides going on my first cruise, which was pretty awesome, I attended a writing workshop, in attempts to win a publishing contract with Hay House Publishing Company.
The experience was beyond my expectations. I met people who not only touched my life in ways that I never knew were possible, but also discovered tons about myself.
You see, all this time, I have been going crazy not knowing what to write in my book. Well, let me back it up a bit... Since I got hurt four years ago, I knew I wanted to write a book about my story, but I just didn't think that the story itself was enough. Millions of people go through tragedies everyday, so I needed to figure out why my story was important and what kind of difference it would make in people's lives.
I feel so blessed and so full of gratitiude for the experience. Although, I spent 3 out of 7 days crying my eyes out in bed, letting out anguish and frustration that built up from so many years of demanding so much of myself, I left the ship feeling someone completely new - actually renewed. I'm even more humbled by my experience and grateful that once again, I've taken on the opportunity to grow a bit more and hopefully continue to have the courage to do what I ought to do.
