Taking Control ….by Carol Anne
I haven’t been very happy with my blood sugar readings lately.
They’ve been really high, and I’ve been trying my best to get them down to a more reasonable level.
So here are my list of alternatives, what I can and should do to get my blood sugar under control.
Doing these things I am pretty sure I can make the changes necessary to see results.

Ocean ….by Sangeetha
Ocean playlists
wave after wave
salt on my lips
a song to crave
Jasmine forests
drawing shapes
with charcoal pencils
from memory lanes
Mercury moonlight
marks my mirror
notching up nights
to go before I sleep
Sights and smells
in sepia tones
still line up and hope
to take the place of you

Positive thoughts – Need a new beginning ….
Sadje spells out how she would like things to be.
Write a story about a new beginning, fresh start or new challenge.
The response to my positivity will decide the intensity of my next move.
Today’s prompt is
Think of a situation in your life you are not happy with.
➰➰➰
I’d like a do over please;
A government in power who thinks about its people
A regime which allows people to say what true and right
No chains on the pen no locks on the tongue
Someone honest with no interest in making money
People at the helm of power who are kind and God fearing
No bigotry or racism, no bias on any basis
I would like a do over please
Moving to another country is not an option for me
I love my people and want to stay in my place of birth
I’d love to be treated with dignity and respect, whoever I may…

Reena asks: to think of a situation in your life you are not happy with and write down alternatives. As is the way with the mind, it can not take instructions sometimes, so I apologize if my take on the prompt differs from that which was required. 🙏
As I sit here in the comfort of my luxurious home, much too big for just three, and at my disposal, whims and fancies all made real, oh and anything more I may require, easily within reach, for hard work and sacrifices do pay quite generously –
I start this list of alternatives to that which makes me unhappy, for an opposing list will be pretty quick to write and read, but all that I come up with… reads hollow and empty.
As goes the ways of life,
our wants exceeding
our needs constantly…

Paranoia …. by Michelle Navajas
Paranoia (?)
Horror stories of abuse and violence against women have been lurking around since time immemorial.
Abuse could come in many forms. The most rampant and the one that I’ve been very vocal about is the abuse in the form of sexual assault or we gravely call it as rape.
I don’t think I need to go graphic in order for us all to understand what rape is. But for the sake of discussion, it is defined by the dictionary as “a type of sexual assault involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration carried out against a person without their consent.”
The key word is “consent“. Consent is giving permission for something to happen. A sexual act without consent is “rape,” it’s that simple, basic. NO IS NO. NO MEANS NO.
But why is a woman’s no becomes so weak when spoken to…

Heart on my sleeve — Before Us …… by Rockstar Girl
I was dazed before we met seeing colors inside of my head not knowing what was true or what was real but almost getting hurt made me think of the qualities I look for and the amount of times I never put myself first but everyone else took my pieces and left me to finding alternatives to my dreams where everyone else like to take the shortcuts but I was the one who like to live by the philosophy of mind over matter and it to be easier than just the beforehand of us
I wasn’t looking for that type of love in the beginning I honestly thought that liking you as more was crazy but slowly it started to grow on me because we both shared the same qualities where I was shy and used to let my words speak on paper rather than in person, I was introverted…
