Sorry for the delay in posting. I didn't know anyone would read this yet 😅
I honestly could have gone on for ages about Claire. She has the ability I've always wanted, not only are her words incredibly beautiful but they really show how it's like to have CF. She can give off the message she's trying to convey so efficiently.
My entire life I've struggled with that, I mean I may be able to give you some idea but it usually takes me a long time to do so, and honestly a couple thousand words can be a bit boring. She was able to condense it really well and still have that same punch. This isn't even my first blog. A few months ago this site looked very different filled with letters that could make Rachel's 18 page letter (front and back) seem like a nice quick read haha.
I had someone that seemed to understand once, we don't talk anymore but knowing them gives me hope that I'm not totally inept. Someone else may understand what I mean without having to fully explain why I used the words I did and in what tone.
Still even then I felt I couldn't full describe the level or significance of them words. We had a debate about the word beautiful. Now I have my interpretation and she had hers. That's fine, but she was herself (in my eyes) kinda beyond beautiful. That's what I meant by the level of the words I used.
I feel trapped with the words I used how can I go beyond the simple meaning? Should I give context or accompany it with metaphors or simile, I think I remember saying her eyes were a lot like the ocean once. Because they had a similar shades of blue and green and to be honest it would be easy to get lost in them too.
How about little sayings. I could say it leaves me breathless. Now that could literally be true but... Having CF it kinda feels I'm comparing them to a good cardio session 😅😅
I think I'll stick to trying to give that extra bit of context though my actions. To me that's a lot easier than writing an essay.... Like this 😂
