Hello world, it’s been so long since I’ve written in this blog! I came across an old blog post by chance today, and what a coincidence, because I had been thinking recently that I would love to start writing again. Poetry, flash fiction, reflections, anything. I watched a TED Talk with spoken word poetry performances by Sarah Kay earlier today, and it was so inspiring. Speech is still to me the most sacred tool – it empowers and connects people in amazing ways.
I’m in medical school now, so of course that’s my priority. To become the most compassionate and knowledgeable physician I can be. But I will try to make time to write.
I look back at some of my posts on the blog and cringe. At the naivete, the cuteness, the ranting that all seems so silly now. But I also smile fondly at the energy, the boldness, the fanciful qualities of a younger self. Perhaps it would be better to start anew, create a new online identity. But for now, my friend, here’s to starting again!
