How old are you? Not old enough.
What do you want? Greater physical/emotional strength. To write more than I am writing. To see more wild sea otters.
What have you given your teenager that is worthwhile, or impressionable? Apologies when I’m wrong or have raised my voice. Books. An introduction to nature.
What did you say to your husband before he left for work? You’re our hero.
What are your goals? Works In Progress. Also: to remember to notice the sky every day, the sway (like breath) of the golden medallion tree out front, the hummingbirds at the kitchen window feeders, to receive love-blinks from the cats. Etc.
Who are you? A nice lady cataloguing personal bests and worsts.
What is your greatest fear? A war into which my son is drafted.
Optimist or pessimist? Hopeful. Especially when watching a raft of sea otters.
Yours in hope,
PB
We share a lot of the same things. I too fear my son being drafted and simply want to get better at this whole writing thing.
