To explain the growth and utter bliss this project brought me would be to explain every single person in the world’s meaning of life. There’s a verse that kept reaching the front end of my mind as this I.D.entity project panned out. “No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening- it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.” Hebrews 12:11. Though, I find that some discipline can be made enjoyable, depending on the person’s perspective.
In facing all of the deadlines and constant negativity I let reign in my mind, our DSA teachers found it to be the prime time in pushing us even harder. To keep constant pressure on our time and grades. I wouldn’t bring myself to build resentment toward them for it, and now it’s a blessing from God that they did so.
I found selfishness in my heart at first, in trying so hard to meet my own deadlines. But by the end of the project, I found a love and an understanding that could only be felt. In trying to simply love and let the rest go, I found a deeper inner peace that I did not know would come so soon.
The DSA teachers have created a project that has redefined my perspective on life, love and happiness. I highly doubt this year will be forgotten, thanks to the feelings that most of the junior class fell into head first, we’ve found our identity.
My photo essay was the most challenging part. I am my worst critic, yes cliche and yes true. No matter what is said to me, I keep certain things in my mind and suck all the negativity I can from it. And I believe. Or at least, that’s how it used to be. This project allowed me to trust myself and believe that my work is worth something special. And that what I do “wrong” is what makes me Leylani.
