Just reread my previous post on rejection and wow, have things changed.

It’s been a very hard summer!

Not restful in the least and in fact last spring was also very busy. In fact, darn it! The whole year has been extremely busy!

Projects, projects and more projects including a song/story video in the works that makes me laugh out loud and through it all I’ve been dealing with the disintegration of a friendship, and now, how many months later, I am finally starting to feel better about it.

I had said in my previous post about rejection that I’ve never been the one doing the rejection. I think that might have changed this time around.

I am in fact moving on.

It might indeed be me doing the rejecting. I’m just not willing to accept certain behavior from others that was quite disrespectful.

And I’m starting to suspect that it’s a very good thing indeed!

The world had felt constricted. My options limited, the future dismal and empty of possibilities and now, with a different perspective under my belt, I’m seeing that all it took was a change of angles.

I’ve been struggling for years now with stories I feel compelled to write and yet every incarnation I’ve produced has stymied me. The narratives come out clunky and gauche to the point I thought I’d lost my touch.

What I’ve learned over the last few months is that sometimes it’s not the story. Sometimes it’s the format!

How you tell the story is as important as what the story is about, and yup, I needed to re-envision the projects into a different format.

No wonder everything was coming out awkward.

It has made all the difference! I’m excited to revisit these projects! In fact I have so many ideas that need revisiting it’s a matter of time.

Which is why I haven’t tended the blog much lately.

Priorities.

But the next little while looks very exciting to me.

And like I said in that post about rejection: pain can become rebirth. God knows best.
