If I don't post about it, is it still real? If I don't speak on it, do I still feel. The book Veneer has really challenged me to think about why am I doing what I'm doing. Today's not an IG post day and that's okay. It's much more about the reality of my experiences and their reflection being housed in a safe space such as this.
We are not responsible for success, but we remain responsible for obedience"- Klaus Bockmuehl
I remember launching the website on my birthday in 2021. I had no super clear vision for it, but I had some vision. I didn't know what all it would/could be used for, but I did it. I felt God saying "make space". With my word for the year being "build", I can proudly do so knowing that I have a solid foundation. My website now highlights spoken word pieces and allows me to showcase myself in a self-curated way where I control the narrative. I'm learning to value what's mine and what I've built.
Consider the pain, the loss, the gain, the new, all means through which God makes space in our lives to do wondrous things. Not only did I make this space but I invite God here. My door remains open to possibility. I'm thankful for where I've been able to take it so far and excited to see where it'll go next.
