Bearing Witness to the Folly of Man

we speed to the end

unaware of the magic

held in the moment

Thanks for the inspiration to Linda and her JusJoJan challenges!

And to No Facilities for the word prompt. I took some liberties and used “testify” as an idea (bearing witness) not the actual word.

Thanks also to Ronovan Writes for the words magic and man, which I morphed in to “we” (based on the assumption that man = human = we) because it sounded / felt like the right word.

letting go

letting go today

falling into the unknown

and finding balance

Today’s Just Jot January prompt of BALANCE courtesy of JP at Wide Eye Wondering is remarkably timely! I am in the midst of buying/selling/moving … and my stress level has been super high. Just seeing the word made me stop and think. Today I shall let go of some of that stress! I do NOT need to be in control of everything!

Today’s assignment: Go to yoga. Be thankful. And breathe.

Favorite Doctor?

  • Converse high tops or bow ties?
  • Bad Wolf or the Impossible Girl?
  • Furrowed brows or wibbly wobbly time?
  • Fantastic, Allons-y, or Geronimo?
  • Sonic screwdriver or Sonic sunglasses?
  • Still not a Ginger or I don’t want to go.

WINNER!

Linda’s JusJuJan SoCS Challenge to write about television made me think of my favorite show (Doctor Who) and then Sammi’s SoCS Challenge to write exactly 40 words including the word “furrowed” made me think of Peter Capaldi (of course!) And although the Tenth Doctor (David Tennent) will always be MY Doctor, Capaldi and his furrowed brows comes in as a close second. (I also love Jodi as the Doctor so she may be moving into the second place slot. We’ll see!)
