Today's prompt suggests you make a list of things you could write about if you wanted to. I thought about it all morning and these are subjects that popped into my head.
Some things I could write about if I wanted to...
1. Conversations I used to have with my dad. He died when I was 24 but I still remember those talks.
2. The time I stole some peaches from the back yard of the meanest kid in the neighborhood. I didn't know it was his house. He caught me doing the stealing and whipped by butt all the way to my house with a branch from the same tree.
3. Giving birth to our daughter. In those days we didn't do it natural—we had drugs to take away the pain! I probably missed seeing the miracle of birth but those drugs were sure powerful.
4. All the different jobs I had during my 45 years of working. How independent I was about those jobs. If someone said something to me I didn't like, I'd just walk out. I figured, if you scare me by yelling, I'll show you how it feels to have me walk out and leave you in a lurch. Of course, that was only in my early years of working. I grew up and stopped doing that! Although, in later years there were times...
5. What true friendship is all about. There is quite a difference between acquaintances and friends. Took me years to find out that little gem.
