Can it really be that time already? What can I say? It's been . . .
fun. No, not quite. . . well, okay kind of (if I'm honest with myself). I have enjoyed and hated blogging. There were times where I was incapable of writing a single unique thought but had to force myself to do it because a blog was due. That was cruddy. There was the time I fell way behind and felt like I'd never catch up. That was even worse. Then there were the times that I discovered something new about myself, some inner quality or strength that I didn't know I had, or someone said something inspirational and encouraging. Those were the times I loved blogging.
To be honest, most times I felt like there was not enough time in the day to throw in a blog as well . . . but I did it and, although I may not want to hear the word blog for at least a month, I think I am the better for it. I think I understand others more and feel connected on a deeper level than would have been possible without the blogs. I think I understand myself more and am more able to tap into my consciousness.
Blogging was essential to this course (I may have hated it at times, but it was important). Maybe it didn't have to be so rigorous at times. . . but it definately had to be there. I'm glad I had the experience of sharing my thoughts with my classmates and gaining insight into their's. It was invaluable.
