Claresa-Writing cj

Writing is like therapy for me. I bare my heart and soul with each key stroke. Each word typed is a breath exhaled. I can relax, letting go and letting God smooth the rough spots.

While that process plays out, I get to see my life and all of its emotions in that slate gray font. I see how I’ve grown. I see the lessons I’ve learned. I see my efforts.

But I also see my mistakes and my failures.

And that’s really humbling.

It’s also really amazing because there is always someone willing to bare their soul and admit that they’ve been where I’ve been.  There is trust among the unguarded. There is support. There is encouragement.

I can share without feeling judgement.

And I never feel alone.

  1. Dear Claresa,
    Much of what you said rang true for me. Especially this…for it is what I long for: “There is trust among the unguarded. There is support. There is encouragement. I can share without feeling judgement.”

    Thank you for your openness. In Christ…Susan
