Writing from The Heart

"Writing from The Heart" is a workshop on creative writing, creative drawing, and creative drama. There are three available versions of this workshop: one for beginners on the secondary, tertiary, and graduate levels, and another for practitioners. A third version of this workshop is designed as an outreach program to disadvantaged and underserved audiences such as the disabled, the poor and the marginalized, victims of human trafficking, battered women and abused children, drug rehabilitation center residents, child combatants, children in conflict with the law, prisoners, and gang leaders. This third version incorporates creativity and problem awareness, conflict resolution, crisis intervention, trauma therapy, and peacemaking.

I wrote the last line of my novel, and my mind took me back to the time I wrote the first, tentative line. And rewrote it. And rewrote it some more, until it sounded right to me. The first line is Alpha, the last, Omega. In between, an entire world of births and deaths and comedies and tragedies.

Perhaps that is how every person's life is. We are fortunate that the Creator has the supreme intelligence to rewrite every line along the way, as necessary and as is best for each and every one of us.
