I have always had a passion for words. From a young age, I understood communication’s power and expression’s necessity. With this in mind, letters forming intricate worlds were bewildering. I was overwhelmed by every sentence’s unyielding force and every story’s relatability. Books nurtured me as a little girl, and their warmth rocked me to sleep nightly. 

Nevertheless, this premature wonder sprouted into motivation. I was determined that my words would leap and sear themselves into my audience’s minds. As the years have passed, my appreciation has only heightened. I have watched as my work brought tears to readers’ eyes–a drop in the fountain of human connection. Are we anything at all, if not each other’s community? Before I understood how to convey it, this inquiry was my driving question. Ultimately, I believe the simple answer is no.

On the same note, I am still on a journey of discovery. Regarding my media world, what is the truth? Is there a single truth, or are all consumers correct in their honesty? Clearly, I am avidly navigating the answers to this rabbit hole. My life’s mission will be pursuing the truth, whatever that may be. Until I rest in this solution, I will remain steadfast in my curiosity and let my heart guide my feet. I do not know how one could go wrong with these steps. Then again, the truth could be multi-faceted, and there is always more to the story.
