What Moves Me Internally!
I am a lover of words; I enjoy the sheer volume of potentiality in one word. It’s a passion that started when I was very young, around five years old.
That’s the age I started school. The classroom was so big and bright I could barely see. It was like I stepped into another dimension. It became my escape room. So much of my young life was mired in trauma and fear. But, when I got that pencil and paper in my hand, I was transported into another realm of reality.
I wrote down everything, seeing letters shape into words, and words into sentences, and sentences into paragraphs; it seemed endless. But what was even more powerful was the volume of words that were shaping my reality; it was euphoric. My mind expanded, and I grew with every new word I learned.
I wrote every day, all day and night! 60+ years later, I still feel the transformative power of words when I write. I also find at times the inability to find the right words, the right structure of a sentence, and the overwhelming energy of a book pounding its way through my mind. By no means am I an expert at words or writing; I am just a simple girl who has fallen for a very powerful entity called words.
The entire world was created with words (if you can believe that). I will always love words because they are my journeymen in this space called life. They are companions that never leave me. Sometimes they betray me or leave me stranded in a non-expressive stance, but overall they are what calls to me beyond whatever circumstance I find myself in.
So I am Dorothy!
