This week’s Saturday Sound Bites prompt: Think of something you lost recently.
What are two positive insights you gained from the experience?
I went for a walk today, enjoying an almost spring like day in February. It’s been months since I walked along the boardwalk and as I strolled along the water’s edge, I thought about these little opportunities I miss to take time for myself. It’s much too easy to get caught up in busy schedules and daily goals. I lost the incentive to take care of myself, too focused on an endless “to do” list. I came back to the house feeling energized and refreshed. It’s amazing how carving out an hour of the day can give you a different perspective.

Writing and Reflections 
“…ticking, counting, courting…” Love the feel of those words when I read them out loud. A very unique and important perspective. Love this post!

It’s funny because your prompts really force me to stop and think. Sometimes I can dash off a response to a prompt but I love that yours force me to pause for a moment so…thank you!

It’s a good little book those prompts come out of. I just love seeing fresh perspectives on them. Life is so diverse and means such different things to different people.
