I passed a small dissertation milestone last night.
When the first draft of my prospectus was rejected, one major weakness - according to my advisor - was the "Theological Reflection". It was not "robust" enough.
And even though I knew first drafts were almost never approved, I must admit that it stung a bit to "fail".
I have spun my wheels for about two years, intimidated by the thought of revising my prospectus, especially the Theological Reflection.
Those years weren't wasted, though. They turned out to be useful in giving me time to ponder my project and deepen both my interests and my convictions.
Last night, motivated by a deadline in my surprise class, I completed an entirely revamped Theological Reflection.
It felt good to complete it - like I can move forward again.
Now I wait to see how my advisor responds... while I work on the next assignment.
