Moments: On the Road |
Ahh, quotes! My one true love! I
love quotes because they express beautifully exactly what I feel. In fact, I have a quote journal that compiles all my favorite quotes.
As you may have noticed through my profound love for
quotes, I’m an avid reader, not writer. However, my favorite kind of writing is
free writing—a blank paper, my thoughts, and I. Why? I’m also an avid
over-thinker. Therefore, I love the idea of expressing myself in a beautiful and
profound way; this is how I’m influenced by my love for quotes. I aspire to be
featured in someone’s quote journal.

The creation of this blog has been an amazing ride. This blog, An Anthology of Moments, has been my way to express myself in a
beautiful and organized way. It has allowed me to branch-out in terms of my
writing by allowing it to be exposed to a large number of people. It is
liberating to write something you believe is important and deep. It is also
extremely fulfilling to feel like what you write—my thoughts and ideas—actually
matter, even if to a few people. Just the mere possibility of being someone
else’s quote in a quote journal is priceless because, if that’s the case, it
means someone has related with me somehow. Hopefully, I’ve helped or changed
their life like many quotes have done for me.

This will be my final post for this blog as part of a
literature course. Hopefully, I’ll have time to write some entries in the
future since this has been an incredibly rewarding opportunity that I wouldn’t
trade for anything. By far it had been the best course work I have come across
in years. This writing experience has made me grow. Through this blog, I’ve
been able to discover many things about life, love, happiness, and my journey
through life. Thank you for being a faithful audience up to this point, and I
encourage you to tune in periodically to see if I’ve uploaded anything.
In the sprit of quotes and the end of one journey (this
course), a few words to reflect on from Nicholas Spark’s novel The Rescue that will, hopefully, shed
more light on the meaning of this blog’s title. Here’s to individual moments that,
when compiled, make up the person and their journey.
“People come, people go – they’ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.”
