Writing Workshop

Cosmic Questions
Today we will consider and write about any of the following question(s) that interest us:

-
When did you become aware of the vastness of the universe and the mysteries of creation? What questions did you have, or still have?
-
Have you ever been obsessed with a particular cosmic question, for example, is there extraterrestrial intelligent life?
-
Do you have a spiritual belief that your essence will extend beyond this life?
Writers always have the option of choosing a different topic to write about. Most writers share their writing afterward, although it’s not required. (Sometimes what you write needs to stay with you!) And we always end the session with a brief writing game that sends us off with a smile.
All are welcome – those who love writing and do it often, those for whom writing is a chore, and everyone else!
Jean Gasca has been a member of the Church in Ocean Park for over 20 years. While she taught math and science as a career, and now as a retired teacher and current tutor and life coach, she has always turned to art, music, reading and writing for enjoyment and relaxation. Her interest in writing as a path for relaxation and healing has deepened during the Pandemic and during political tensions in our country. She has realized how important it is to seek to understand our feelings and values, bring order to our perception of life’s events if daily life is chaotic, and sometimes to just play with ideas for a break from “doing.”
