Freewrite - “Garbage Sandwich”

in Freewriters6 days ago

The problem with the world, according to Charlene, was that there weren't nearly enough optimists. Sure, bad and good existed everywhere but with the right outlook, even the darkest of clouds could be convinced to reveal its silver lining.

Her recent firing from that soul crushing job was probably just the nudge she needed to start taking her writing career more seriously. And she finally had time for both yoga and meditation now.

The boyfriend who had left the country the day after she told him she loved him was clearly not her soul mate at all. The end of that relationship had probably placed her in much greater alignment with the universe and her higher self.

The fly she had found in her soup was probably an excellent source of protein and…okay she wasn't ready to spin that one into a positive just yet. But all things considered, she had air in her lungs, a granola bar in her purse, a smile on her face and a heart full of hope and love for humanity.

She never saw the asteroid coming.

Is life an adventure full of exciting twists and turns or is it a garbage sandwich, just a massive helping of crap sandwiched between two thick slices of disappointment? I like to believe that it has the potential to be absolutely anything.

But anyway, head on over here for the details and prompt to write your own freewrite today.

Excelente participación. A veces es conveniente detenernos un momento a revisar la vida que llevamos, la que deseábamos vivir y la que aún podemos de-construir para armarla de nuevo. Aunque, a decir verdad, existen personas a las que les gusta comer "basura" y no se atreven a probar otros tipos de platillos. Quizás más sanos y más acordes con la vida saludable, jeje. Este comentario se presta para múltiples interpretaciones. Me encantó leerte.

Thanks 😊 I decided to look at the 'garbage sandwich' more as a metaphor for life but it can absolutely be other things too. Have a great day ☮️
