The thing about being in a drama program is that unlike
other faculties what you learn is not your only tool. As my group is
discovering who we are and who we were are just as powerful tools. We have been
exploring our identities so to learn who I ‘am I went back and learned how I
got here my trial and tribulations that culminated into the person you
seen. I realized that there were five
points that defined me before that definitely don’t apply anymore:
11)
Religion
22)
Meekness
33)
Shyness
44)
Quite
55)
Reserved
So my big question for the week was learning how I abandoned
those 5 traits where was the turning point that brought me to now. I learned
that my life really changed when I took a revaluation of my faith and started
taking stock out of God and putting it into myself, my turning point was find
my atheism. Now to most this might seem strange as most people go the opposite way
but as I learned I only became a strong person when I freed myself from my
faith.
I found that this was a more personal and stronger and more
deeply connected topic for me to focus on for the midterm and have since become
a flurry of discoveries that apply strongly to my sense of identity.
P.S now that 483’s are done I have my brain back woot

ReplyDeleteWe are in a field that is in essence the understanding of ourselves. I have been thinking about similar topics as of late, and I think that each individuals journey in understanding is unique. For example, I still believe in God, but have made my own definition of what that power is and what role it plays in my life. And in opposition to your journey, I have found that in the past few years I have grown more quiet and reserved. We are all in need of different things in our lives. Its how we relate these things to others that we form a community, and its through discussion of these elements that we create art.
