Revolution is built on Hope
At last we saw the latest Star Wars epic, Rogue One. Smash, bang, boom, whip fast, gee whiz, shazam!
Grace
My belief system should be clear to you, Constant Reader. I’ve often used the Einstein quote in my four years of blog-iverse blather. There is a God and He offers miracles daily. I believe. It’s a choice.
Pure Fiction, out of my league
The elf raised the wooden stamp as high as his bruised elbow allowed. He paused, scrunched his eyes, and listened intently, hoping that someone, something, anything would intervene.
His heart ached as much as his arm. Kerthumped in his chest. A chest that didn’t rise or fall—because he couldn’t breathe. Paralyzed by insight.
The New Forthright
It’s the new forthright and it’s no fault. But it’s caused me to fear… What can we do about it, friends?
Nostalgia and Angst
It’s Christmas/Kwanza/Hannukah season – and dozens more holidays around the world. Peace and joy!
Tis the season of celebration. Tis the season of frenzied preparation and sumptuous feasting: go-go-go, gulp!
Tis the season of nostalgia. Tis the season of angst.
Pregnant Pause
“Whatever happened to Sarah Sota?” the snide talking head asked.
Process
I am a Process, not a Product Person. A PP, not a PP: pick your poison, peeps. I enjoy/dislike the act of doing/achieving more than the outcome/aftermath.
I don’t say “hella”
“I like reading your book, PJ. I’m getting to know your personality better,” she said as she paddled and kicked in water aerobics class.
I smiled as I paddled and kicked, too. Nice to receive a direct reader compliment. She’d honored my endeavor of writing a book – a year-and-a-half of my life – by buying it, and now she gave me more. Looking directly at me, she said with a wonder-filled voice, “I’ve never heard you say ‘hella’ before.”
A Cautionary TALE
Fragile, cautious, in jeopardy.
Not feelings I’d ever experienced before.
Never a victim of robbery or rape, I’d lived a face-forward life.
