Favorite Writing

"as she looked into her past, she noticed that the road she had traveled was no simple straight line. Her journey toward fully loving herself and the world was full of forward and backward movement, twists, turns, detours, and even some pauses. At times, she doubted her progress, her potential and even her power to change. But today with the wisdom of experience at hand. She knows she could not have gotten to where she now was without every movement she has ever made."

In this poem, the author used to describe a woman's past experiences with a road and movements as if you are driving on a freeway. Her journey of loving herself wasn't really easy and had many movements to it. In those sentences, I wanted to keep reading to see her progress change. Then, I like how the author goes into how experiences, helped her be who she is today. This type of writing makes you think and reflect on yourself. The author is descriptive but not too much that I don't understand it. These poems are my favorite because it's straight forward and makes you really think about yourself. This is overall good writing to me because it's very relatable and gives a great message in the end.
