Lost a dear friend yesterday...
Thirty years of laughter, tears, and confidences shared...
Plus all the other ups, downs, and upside downs of life.
Time may heal all wounds...
But time doesn’t make mourning a death easier on the heart.
When I lost my sister, my soul mate, years ago...
This saying came to me
I don’t want to down the gauntlet of emotions
to get to the other side of sorrow.
Will miss you, Maryann...my dear friend
If there are martinis on the other side…
Salud!
Always,
Em-Musing
It’s the Monthly Blog Hop for the Insecure Writers Support Group founded by Alex J. Cavanaugh.
The first Wednesday of every month, an optional question is announced that members can answer in their IWSG post. These questions may prompt you to share advice, insight, a personal experience, or even a story. Include your answer to the question in your IWSG post. Our Twitter handle is @TheIWSG and hashtag is #IWSG. Let’s rock the neurotic writing world
The awesome co-hosts for the April 2 posting of the IWSG are Jennifer Lane, L Diane Wolfe, Jenni Enzor, and Natalie Aguirre!
April 2 question: What fantasy character would you like to fight, go on a quest with, or have a beer/glass of wine with? Remember, the question is optional.
You’re asking me to go to Fantasy Land?
Okay, I’ll play.
When I looked at DC's & Marvel's list of superheroes...
Which, by the way, there are lots and LOTS of them.
It was fins down for...
AQUAMAN!
Ummm, but not this version from 1941.
Mmmm this one!
So he would have to figure out a way for me to breath underwater.
Mouth to mouth would be lovely...
But I don’t think we’d get very far.
I’d love to have him take me down...
To the depths of the deep blue...
And see the lost continent of Atlantis...
And other civilizations that have been lost to the sea.
I’d want to see sunken pirate ships (no bones please)...
And deep-sea creatures...
Not seen except with vessels like the Triton.
And I wouldn’t want any conflicts...
Because what if he lost a battle?
(I know that'd be impossible)
But if did happen...
I’d be down under water by myself...
And who knows what would happen to me?
But maybe...just maybe...
I'd develop a super power of my own and save myself...
And I'd become—AQUAWRITER...
And write about all the glory and mysteries of the sea.
Don't laugh. It's my fantasy and, in it, it could happen.
So...
What about you?
Which fantasy character do you choose to do something with?
And what are you doing?
Always,
Em-Musing
