Reflections on a narrative

It was hard to choose a story to write about for our narrative assignment. In fact, that was the hardest part of the paper. I explored ideas in my head and even met with Sister Steadman to explore ideas further. As I tried to think of learning experiences I had many cross my mind, and finally I chose a rather recent one. When I decided to write about a past relationship I was a bit nervous. Was this really something I wanted to share with others? I felt vulnerable writing this story. However, it ended up being rather therapeutic. When I sat down to write the first draft of the paper I wrote the whole five pages in an hour and a half. It felt good to write and get it all out. As I revised the paper multiple times I continued to learn and grow from the experience. I am glad that I chose to write about this time in my life. I learned more through writing about it and experienced even more closure.
