Final Journal Entry

For my final journal entry I chose a picture that says, “I hope you somehow understand that you’re going to a new home NOT because I don’t love you, but because I do.   So Much Love, Foster Mom”.  I personally find this text to be beautiful.  The learned knowledge of love that mothers can potentially share with their babies through natural acquisition is incredible to me.  The willingness to give up something or someone loved for the greater good, knowing that the ideas behind such an act could potentially be misconstrued by the one you love.  This is a sacrifice so large that I don’t believe it can simply be taught.  It’s amazing to me that even though these are only words on a page, that through communication of writing I am able to feel such a connection to self.  Much like how a mother learns to love, class has taught me the importance of communication in writing.  Without communication in writing entire thoughts would just become words on a page.  The simple beauties in life, like understanding a picture expressing the natural acquisition of love between a mother and child would be eradicated forever.  Communication holds the key to understanding and is essential if society wishes to thrive.  Such a simple picture with cats and words on page can mean so much merely through communication, and we are all connected through the glue holding communication together that is writing.
