Baby, It’s Cold Outside
I am a winter baby, so I often think that is probably why I am reasonably comfortable in the cold weather. But more, I love that the seasons change, that we have that season where everything has a rest and reset before the great reawakening of spring. So, I don’t…

My Legacy
This is another one of those prompts – what legacy do you want to leave behind – that immediately triggers a response of ‘who, me?’ in my mind when I read it. I have literally moved on past this title for that very reason. But because of that reason, I…

Sacrifices I Have Made
This is an interesting title. Originally, the prompt was ‘What Sacrifices Have You Made?’ with it being open-ended I guess as to how you apply it. And it made me think…does anyone truly make sacrifices? Very often the word sacrifice is used in a ‘look at what I gave up…

This is a far more intriguing question than I first thought. Because, what does freedom mean to me? Do I have it and didn’t realise it? Or am I completely trapped? Can anyone truly be free? Is anyone truly trapped? The simple answer is, I don’t really know. Because while…

A Job For A Day
When I first saw this writing prompt, so many different jobs flitted through my head. And I put off writing anything because nothing immediately came to mind for me. It still doesn’t. But what does come to mind is…not what I expected. At all. The jobs that flitted through my…

The Quote I Live By
‘What is meant to be, will be.’ That is the quote, if it really is a quote because I have no idea where it comes from other than from my grandmother and mother, that I live by. It has served me well when I have remembered it, and when I…
