Under the Oklahoma Sky has all its own persona. Its signature on the blogging community is one of the most unique I have come across to date. Even though Kanady personally told me that she reflects very deeply on her writing, which may take longer than she wants to, I believe that her photos make up for it; they fill in the spaces and complete what she is trying to say. From following Kanady’s blog, it has taught me, that while I rely on words a lot and writing has a rhythmic flow within my veins, photos or films really embody what you’re saying when you cannot always find the words to say; admit it, we all go through the occasional writer’s block that paralyzes us in our creative flow and tracks. However, with the words she does compose on her blog are inspirational, concise and she does not sugar coat a single word. She shows that you don’t always have to be so eloquent, as Shakespeare once was, to get your point across.

The way she bodies her words is fascinating to me. I don’t know if it is the font, or how the words are beautifully empowering and can achieve this by using very little words. I know that I tend to spice up my tone if voice in my writing, but I am constantly learning and honing my skills to where I can be powerful with my words, as Kanady has shown. I realize as I am writing this that I reflect deeply in what I say, but if I allow myself to be vulnerable in my writing, the words that are written and come to mind will be the words that were meant to be voiced; in the wise words of Bryce Avary of the Rocket Summer, “Life will write the words, you choose your own melody.”
Amber has proven to be inspirational with her passions of photography and blogging itself. However, the quality I have found most value is the person Under the Oklahoma Sky. From the moment I read her “About Me” section, I sensed an immediate connection with her because not only do we have similar likes, but we have a common tie: the blood of Jesus Christ. She is defined by the Savior of the world, and we share the same love for Him. She is my sister, and I feel like I know her, through her blog and life accounts.
