I am committed…

Our writing word for today is “commit.” It reminds me that I am committed to enhancing and enjoying whatever time I have left on this amazing planet. I work, for example, at keeping my mind active – I read, play the piano and write. I take on projects – I design and sew clothing, I […]

Fantasy…

Our writing word for today is “fantasy.” I often say that I never read fantasy fiction. I will never read Lord of the Rings, for example, and I have never watched Game of Thrones or Outlander. For years, I never even read regular fiction. I only wanted to read true stories. Somewhere along the road,

Rich….

Our writing word for today is “rich.” I’ve never felt the need to be rich in the sense of monetary wealth. My idea of a rich life is having many varied experiences, embellishing and adorning what I have and finding a motherlode of wealth in the freedoms many have fought so hard to protect. We

Key…

Our writing word for today is “key.” It’s a word I gave to the writing challenge and it came to mind because I am “key” challenged. I have more keys than locks. I have little tubs of keys, scattered throughout the house, which belonged to locks at one time – but damned if I can

The Power of Wisps!

Our writing word for today is “wisp.” To me much of what makes life enjoyable are small “wisps” of “things.” I am sitting here beside two pink peonies that are very fragrant. I inhale a wisp of their perfume, from time to time. It is subtle, like the spray of lilac that nods across my

The Luck of the Draw…

Our writing word today is “draw.” Again a word with so many meanings. All my life I have wanted to draw real-life pictures. I particularly like pencil drawings with shading. I like the fact that you can create 3-dimensional pictures on a flat piece of paper. I admire people who can sit outside and draw

Specialty…

Our word for today is “specialty.” Everyone has a specialty. You’re a great speaker, a fabulous artist, a  wonderful cook….the list goes on. We seek out people and places to enjoy their specialties. We go to restaurants to savour certain dishes that are unique to them. We read authors that are particularly good a writing

Collusion

Collusion is our writing word for today and it’s right up my alley, even if it isn’t my word. I’m a great believer in conspiracy theories. In fact, if the truth were known, I believe that almost everything is a conspiracy. I’m not even going to talk about how governments, drug companies, water suppliers, even
