Final Reflection

I felt uncertain or wobbly about picking a topic to write for my literacy narrative. I did not want to choose something that I knew would be hard to write about, but at the same time I wanted it to be meaningful to me in some way. It was struggling to compensate for the two topics, but in the end I found a happy medium between the two. Now thinking back on it, I wish I didn't choose something as meaningful to me because when we had to share a part of them in class I was nervous because I didn't want anyone feel sad or upset after I read it. I was unaware of the read around in the beginning, but if I did know I probably would have chose to write about soccer because that was a huge part of my life and would have been fun to write about. The topic I did chose to write was a very touchy subject and a little difficult to write about. When I had to reflect on all the moments I spent with my friend who passed away it did bring up some memories we had together. While I was writing it was hard to focus because I would stop and reminisce each time I thought of an event. So writing my narrative it did push some limits that I thought I couldn't have written about. So writing my paper was an enormous wobble, because it did push me to write through my insecurities and uncertainties and helped me become a better writer. Even though I was not suppose to have a resolution from accomplishing my literacy narrative, I do. It has helped me filter some emotions that I thought I could never get passed, but it had helped tremendously.
