Ethereal Aspirations

Beyond this, I cannot introduce myself. I am a work in progress. I am a mystery to myself and truly to all who know me. I am always changing according to the plans of my Maker, whether I am growing closer to those plans, or taking them in my own hands and working flaws in them. But, at every moment He is at work, and He is showing me everyday anew who I am to become and who I am at the moment. I hope someday to be so many things. I have high aspirations. But in the end I only want one thing, and that is to be His, however and whoever I may turn out to be in the process. Until then I am curious, I am strong, I am weak, and I am nothing. Until then I am on a quest, a mission, to find where that true balance and life lies. And on that day, I will die, for it is in death that all will find it's completion, for I will truly see my place in the world once it is revealed to me in His eyes. This is a compilation of poems and short stories written by my younger self while taking literature classes in University. I explore the journey to God through tribulations, the struggles of modern life, and experiment with traditional literary styles. If you enjoy classic literature, this compilation is for you.
