Some of you out there (at least i hope you're out there) may by now be wondering why I named my blog the Godswood when it has nothing to do with the book series "A song of ice and fire" or it's TV show. If you have no idea what that is you might just be a bit confused.So to clear everything up, I am now going to write a short mission statement of sorts explaining why i created this blog.
And naturally - Disclaimer - the name the Godswood or any other refrences made to ASOIaF or GOT does not belong to me. Such and such blah blah blah. Consider yourself disclaimed.
Anyway back to the point. The name is not meant to have any religious intonation. In the series of books I mentioned earlier a girl named Sansa often visited a place called the Godswood near where she lived. It's original purpose was to be a place for prayer and meditation. But I think, to Sansa, it became so much more than that. It became her sanctuary - a safe place where she could say what she wanted to and, if only for a little while, be happy. It was her special place, the only place she could be herself in her otherwise extremely restricted life.
That's what I want this blog to be - a safe place to voice opinions, share stories, make connections, and just be without any fear of judgement or defamation. A really positive place to inspire people and make them smile! I wanted to create a Godswood for myself and so I did!
I hope you enjoy this blog and all the other posts to come. Like i said, I want this to be a place of free expression so please feel free to leave a comment (I'm open to some constructive criticism).
That's all I have to say for now but stay tuned!
Oh! And welcome to the Godswood.
Until next time,
Bianka
