Last Friday I saw a play called Confirming the Search: That Girl's Still Here Somewhere By: Nadine Mozon. Unlike most plays this had only one person and was a collection of poems instead of a script with multiple characters.
This play was very interesting. The writer told about her life and the different stages she experienced, and it always went back to what she did as a kid. I think that it is important not to lose the kid in you because you lose everything. I believe being a kid helps you know what you'll enjoy as a grown up.
This play was more then something to just sit back and listen to, it got you thinking and wondering how you can keep the inner kid in you. It also gave you an appreciation for the small things and keeping child-like amazement by expecting so much. One of the most important things I got out of this is to learn to live free from your mind and don't go searching for you, but let it come to you.
This program was part of the "Women in Power Conference" series sponsored by United Way of Greater Union County and Kean University. My sisters and I as part of Tiaras To Crowns started attending this annual event last year. There is really good information shared and lots of fun too. We meet girls from all over the area and talk about issues that face teens.
As a bonus to the evening I received a signed copy of Ms. Mozon's book, Kiss It Up To God -- I'll be reading it to fulfill my homework for English. If you get a chance click on the link above and look into some of her work.
